Underworld Unleashed

    (DC, 1995-1996)
™ and ©1995 DC Comics, Inc.

Neron is a character who, for all intents and purposes, is Satan. After tricking five of DC’s major villains into sacrificing their lives to give him physical form, he set his master plan in motion.

Neron made a proposal to the major villains in the DC Universe. He would give them their heart’s fondest wish, in return for each villain’s immortal soul. Faced with this choice, even villains mostly turned away. But some two dozen agree to the deal. In most cases, these villains ask for souped-up powers to help them fight their respective arch enemies. Joker, however, just asks for a good cigar.

Underworld Unleashed kicked off a company-wide crossover storyline at DC Comics. In each individual title, the hero was pitted against his or her power enhanced enemy. This mini-series formed the core of the crossover, and was written by the acclaimed Mark Waid.
