Publication history

In October 2022, during New York Comic Con, DC Comics announced a new event called Lazarus Planet which, along with Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths , will kickstart Dawn of DC . Batman/Superman: World's Finest (issues #1–5) and the Batman vs. Robin act as a prelude to Lazarus Planet. ^[1] Lazarus Planet was followed up with a sequel called Lazarus Planet: Revenge of the Gods where Wonder Woman and Shazam fight. It was written by G. Willow Wilson, Becky Cloonan, Michael Conrad, and Josie Campbell and ran through the pages of Wonder Woman and the titular miniseries. ^[2]

Plot

Prelude

During Batman and Robin's early adventures, they team up with Superman and the Doom Patrol to deal with the demon Nezha who was wreaking havoc in Gotham City and Metropolis. The Doom Patrol explain that over three millennia ago, Nezha was originally a human and the son of powerful war general Li Jing. After Nezha died in battle at a young age, Li Jing gave up his wealth and power to resurrect him, eventually entering the servitude of a magician who gave him the elixir of immortality out of pity.

Nezha was resurrected by the elixir, but was enraged at his father and killed him. Nezha rebuilt his father's empire, made deals with demons and obtained magical weapons, becoming a demon. ^[3] To stop Nezha, warriors from the House of Ji imprisoned him. In the 21st century, Nezha creates a new spell to free himself but is disgusted with how humans had advanced and desires to control the world. ^[4]

Batman and Superman manage to stop Nezha by trapping him in the Phantom Zone, but he attempts to escape. Superman pushes Nezha and himself in Nezha's prison on Lazarus Island before escaping. ^{[5] [6]}

In the present, while Damian Wayne participates in a tournament on Lazarus Island, it is revealed that his great-grandmother, Mother's Soul, was brought back to life due to the Lazarus Pits, with Mother's Soul saying that they must free Nezha once more or else the world will be destroyed. ^{[7] [8]} One night, Bruce Wayne sees Alfred Pennyworth appear in front of him, which makes Bruce suspicious since he was killed by Bane during the City of Bane storyline. Bruce tests Alfred on a series of questions to make sure Alfred is not the imposter, and while in the Batcave they see a possessed Damian, Jakeem Thunder and Timothy Hunter. Batman subdues the Hunters but Damian wounds him and escapes to meet up with Nezha and Mother Soul, who have sent various malicious mystics to capture powerful relics across the world, causing Earth's magic to go into havoc. ^[9]

Investigating the magic imbalance, Batman tries meeting with Zatanna but finds her hanging, but Zatanna reveals she is alive with Justice League Dark being preoccupied by Nezha's magic. Batman goes to Kentucky to meet a magician, Abel, where he learns about Damian's recent tournament on Lazarus Island, and learns that Mother Soul is the mother of Ra's al Ghul and that the Lazarus Pits are derived from Nezha's elixir. Batman realizes that Nezha corrupted Damian and tricked him into freeing himself from his prison, and has taken control of Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, Jason Todd, and Stephanie Brown. ^[10]

While traveling to Lazarus Island, Batman realizes that Nezha has incapacitated Barbara Gordon and Batwoman while Talia al Ghul is held prisoner by Damian and Mother Soul. Nezha captures his old friend Pigsy and discovers that his son King Fire Bull has resurfaced on Earth with his own plans for world domination while Mother Soul forces the captured Black Alice to augment Doctor Fate's helmet with stolen magic. Batman defeats all the former Robins and allows Alfred to be killed by Nezha, revealing that he knew Alfred was fake when Alfred answered all of Batman's questions when they first met, but not contradict Batman's question when Nezha thought Batman was telling the truth. Alfred tells Batman to try to reconcile with Damian before passing away once more. ^[11]

Damian confronts Batman who struggles due to his battles with the former Robins, but it is revealed that Batman freed Talia and disarms Nezha long enough for Batman to obtain Doctor Fate's helmet and frees everyone from Nezha's influence as well as teleports them away except Pigsy and Black Alice. Damian and Talia fight off Mother Soul where Mother Soul falls over a cliff. During the fight, Nezha mortally wounds Batman, but King Fire Bull arrives and fights Nezha off while Talia and Damian revive Batman by using Black Alice's and Pigsy's magic. Nezha flees, and King Fire Bull causes the Lazarus Volcano to explode. ^[12]

Main plot

Alpha

Damian flies Batman, Talia, and Black Alice out of the Lazarus Volcano while Supergirl notes that there is a big storm wrecking havoc on Earth. Damian and his group crash into the Hall of Justice where Supergirl, Power Girl, Blue Beetle, Mary Marvel, the Monkey Prince, Zatanna, Cyborg, and Blue Devil are. Damian brings everyone up to speed on what has happened and that King Fire Bull is the one responsible for the big storm. Zatanna notices that magic in general has gotten out of control, so Damian sends Mary, Zatanna, Cyborg, Blue Beetle and Power Girl to collect magical artifacts in the Tower of Fate, while Batman, Talia, and Supergirl will find Nezha in the Himalayas. While trying to breach the tower, Cyborg and Blue Beetle are attacked by King Fire Bull's bodyguard, the Silver Horn King.

Batman's group are confronted by King Fire Bull's other bodyguard, the Golden Horn King. While Blue Beetle and Supergirl distract the Golden Horn King, Batman and Talia are shocked to see Nezha being attacked by Swamp Thing and Poison Ivy, who are angered that the Lazarus Volcano explosion is poisoning the plants and Earth. Batman's group defeats Nezha, but Nezha's body slowly corrupts Batman, turning him into a demon. Mary Marvel's group gets closer to the Tower, and Mary yells her name, which causes people who were imprisoned by Nezha to be free. Damian is trying to figure out what is going on when he is suddenly confronted by Fire King Bull. ^[13]

One of Pigsy's clones visits the Monkey Prince at the Hall and explains Nezha's and King Fire Bull's origins. During his initial conquest as the Devil Nezha, the Chinese gods offered Nezha a chance at redemption, taking him to the Heavenly Realm and gifting him the Red Armillary Sash, which suppressed his evil and reverted him to human form. Nezha ascended to deity status and became acquainted with Pigsy and his companions Monkey King and Sandy during their quest to reunite with their master. Following the war between Apokolips and the Heavenly Realm centuries ago, Nezha adopted Red Boy as his son after Darkseid murdered his parents King Bull Demon and Princess Iron Fan. Red Boy would later be consumed by his hate, eventually becoming the demonic King Fire Bull. ^[14]

Omega

King Fire Bull is about to kill Black Alice but Zatanna tries to teleport Black Alice away to save her. Nezha prevents Black Alice from teleporting away and nearly rips her in half, but Monkey Prince arrives to save her. Hal Jordan, Superman, Jon Kent, Martian Manhunter, Yara Flor, Barry Allen and Sojourner Mullein arrive to apprehend King Fire Bull, but King Fire Bull manipulates the Lazarus Explosion to gain more power. Black Alice teleports to Zatanna and plans to absorb all of the Earth's magic at once. Black Alice makes Jim Corrigan the Spectre once more as well as have Enchantress use magic on her to seemingly sacrifice herself, which allows Nezha (possessing Batman) to find King Fire Bull. Nezha shoots lightning at King Fire Bull by channeling power from the Lazarus Explosion, which severely weakens King Fire Bull, and allows Zatanna and the rest of the magical users to appear in front of King Fire Bull. They manage to imprison King Fire Bull, but Zatanna warns Damian that magic will be more unpredictable before leaving. Damian sees Batman and hugs him, but is unaware that Nezha is still controlling him. ^[15]

The Monkey King uses his abilities to view the Monkey Prince's memories and is informed of conflict between Nezha and King Fire Bull.

Aftermath

Batman vs. Robin

Possessing Batman's body, Nezha takes Damian back to the Batcave and demands King Fire Bull's whereabouts. Damian is able to escape the Batcave on his motorcycle but Nezha takes control of a Batmobile and gives chase. Talia radios Damian and informs him that Nezha's spirit has left his body and has been fully transferred into his father but warns him that exorcising Nezha would cause Batman to die from his earlier wounds. The Monkey Prince arrives and rescues Damian from Nezha and informs him that Nezha will become stronger the longer he stays in Batman's body. Damian formulates a plan to defeat Nezha and save his father. Damain lures Nezha to a Gotham City rooftop, where he, the Bat-Family (Nightwing, Red Hood, Tim Drake, Barbara Gordon, Cassandra Cain and Stephanie Brown) and the Monkey Prince subdue Nezha long enough for Zatanna, Enchantress and Pigsy to arrive with Nezha's body. The three sorcerers transfer and bind Nezha's spirit back into his body with the Red Armillary Sash, but Batman is mortally wounded. Damian offers his own life to save his father, but is told that his soul alone won't be able to save Batman. With Oracle's technology, Damian broadcasts a message to Gotham's citizens, urging them to help Batman. Damian's words allow Gotham's citizens to give up small pieces of their souls and resurrect Batman. The next morning, Damian confirms that Lazarus Island has been evacuated, the Lazarus Resin has disappeared, and Nezha and King Fire Bull have been imprisoned. Damian reconciles with Batman and comments that there is no team more formidable than Batman and Robin. ^[22]

Monkey Prince

An unnamed Chinese demoness and her skeletal soldiers release a weakened King Fire Bull from his prison in the Atlantic Ocean. The Monkey Prince, Pigsy and Supergirl clean up Metropolis and are assisted by Princess Shellestriah, who wishes to be trained by Pigsy. The demoness' soldiers attack the four and while the Monkey Prince fights them off with his clones, some of the soldiers reveal that the Monkey Prince is not the Monkey King's son but a clone of the Monkey King who refused to revert back into hair. While the Monkey Prince is shaken by the revelation, the soldiers are able to capture Supergirl due to her weakness to magic and take her to King Fire Bull's lair, who proceeds to consume her qi to revitalize himself. While the three pursue the soldiers, Pigsy views the Monkey Prince's memories which confirm he was a clone created from the King's hairs. However, Pigsy explains that the Monkey Prince's inability to revert back into hair and choosing to believe that he is real proves that his is the Monkey King's son rather than his clone. With his newfound confidence, the Monkey Prince confronts and defeats King Fire Bull, who is resealed by Pigsy. As Supergirl thanks the Monkey Prince and his companions, the demoness flees unnoticed.
