History

Brought together by reclusive millionaire John Mayhew, they were given a private island headquarters and a large budget. Together, they became the Club of Heroes. However, the members of the Club were too prone to fight one another, and so they split up, mostly staying out of each other's way.

Years later, after his voyage around the world in the wake of Infinite Crisis, Batman decided to try to reconnect with these heroes. Returning to the island, the heroes were attacked by the Wingman and John Mayhew, acting at the behest of the Black Glove. Several of the heroes were killed, and ultimately the heroes were left with little closure. However, Batman vowed to bring the villains to justice.
