History

The Monster Men were a race of super-beings engineered by Hugo Strange with a growth serum.

Hugo Strange experimented on some of the lesser known inmates of Arkham Asylum and injected them with growth serum that transformed their mind and bodies into savage beasts.

Notes

• On their original debut, the Monster Men were all killed by Batman. The story changed in the reimagined version by Matt Wagner on Batman and the Monster Men where they were killed in battle with Sal Maroni's men.
