[edit] Biography
At some point, Mary met and married Warren McGinnis. After their marriage, Warren was injected with what was thought to be a flu shot, but was really a nanotech solution programmed to rewrite his reproductive material into a copy of Bruce Wayne's. The solution was created as a part of Amanda Waller's Project Batman Beyond, a plan to make a new Batman. A year after the injection, Mary gave birth to her son, Terry, who was the product of both Mary's DNA and Bruce's.[1]
When Terry was about eight years old, Mary accompanied her son and husband to see the movie The Grey Ghost Strikes. Unknown to her and her family, however, an assassin lurked in the parking area, preparing to kill both Mary and Warren to force Terry onto the path to becoming the new Batman. Phantasm, though, refused to go through with the assassination, thus sparing both Mary and Warren's lives.[1]
Soon after the near-incident at the movie theatre, Mary gave birth to her second son, Matthew, who was also Bruce Wayne's biological son.[1]
Sometime after Matt's birth, Mary and Warren divorced. Mary kept custody of Matt, but Terry moved in with his father. When Warren was murdered, purportedly by a gang of Jokerz, Terry moved back in with Mary and Matt. Mary did her best to reassure Terry that Warren's death was not his fault.[2]
Soon after Terry's return to Mary's home, Bruce Wayne arrived offering Terry a job as his personal assistant. Initially, Mary was enthusiastic about her son working for Bruce.[2] That enthusiasm waned, however, when Terry soon began staying out late more often than not, which resulted in him sleeping in class. Mary even caught Terry carrying slappers in his bag, leading her to assume that drug use was the reason for her son's odd and secretive behavior and resulted in her grounding him. She was relieved when Bruce was able to produce test results proving that Terry was not using drugs.[3]
Mary has a tattoo of a heart on her right ankle. Terry described it, "a relic from [her] wild teen years."[4]
