Who is RA'S AL GHUL?
RA'S AL GHUL is a centuries-old international eco-terrorist. He is incredibly intelligent and agile, having had time to train his mind and body to their absolute peaks. RA'S AL GHUL was created by Dennis O'Neil and Neal Adams and first appeared in Batman #232 (June 1971).
RA'S AL GHUL is born over 600 years ago to a tribe of nomads; he is immortal due to discovering what he calls the Lazarus pit. A pool composed of a unique unknown chemical blend that bubbles up somewhere within the Earth's crust to the surface at key points on Earth. The substance possesses the ability to rejuvenate the sick and injured, and even resurrect the dead.
With the help of the Lazarus Pit, Ra's spends the next several centuries journeying the world. He fought in several wars and became a very formidable warrior.
As the world entered the modern age and industrialization began to cover much of the Earth, Ra's grew to despise the inhabitants who he believed were destroying the world's natural beauty, thus setting him on a path of eco-terrorism.
To further his goal he organizes lethal operatives, which is now known as the league of assassins.
When her daughter, Talia, began falling in love with Batman, Ra's considered Batman as a possible heir to his organization. Ra's with all his resources was able to deduce who the Batman is.
However, opposing views will lead to several battles between both men, often with the Dark Knight gaining the slight upper hand.
The familial ties between Batman and Ra's grew stronger with the revelation of Batman's son with Talia. Which ensures more encounter between these two master fighters?
