Following Infinite Crisis, Eddie attempts to join the Teen Titans with little success. He is transformed into a demonic metahuman after he and Zachary Zatara meets with Neron.[30][31][32]

The Joker
[edit]The Joker's earliest origin story as the original Red Hood first appeared in Detective Comics #168 (February 1951) in the story "The Man Behind the Red Hood!" as an unnamed criminal wearing a red dome-shaped hood who is disfigured by chemicals and becomes insane.[38]
Jason Todd
[edit]Jason Todd utilized the Red Hood identity in Batman #635 (February 2005) as a violent vigilante in the main DC continuity.
Red Hood Gang
[edit]The Red Hood Gang first appeared in Batman (vol. 2) #0 (November 2012) in The New 52 (a 2011 reboot of the DC universe) with various members, such as Philip Kane and Liam Distal.
The young Bruce Wayne has recently returned to Gotham City to start a crime-fighting career with the Red Hood Gang as one of Bruce's early targets of infiltration. To Bruce's dismay, the Red Hood Gang's leader knows the group has been infiltrated and manages to weed out the disguised Bruce. The Red Hood Gang attempts to kill, but Bruce manages to escape into the sewers after the Gotham City Police Department show up to break up a robbery. The Red Hood Gang follow into the sewer system, but a prototype motorcycle hidden in the tunnels allows Bruce to escape. The Red Hood Gang is later seen outside of Bruce's apartment, scoping it out for their next hit.[39]
The Red Hood Gang subsequently reappeared in the "Zero Year" event's first story arc "Secret City", where Bruce gets involved with the Red Hood Gang to spoil their plans to sink a pickup truck full of men who refused to join their ranks. It's revealed that the Red Hood Gang's ranks have expanded and their leader has blackmailed innocent Gotham citizens into joining the group, threatening violence if they refuse to be henchmen.[40] They eventually steal an airship belonging to the Penguin and several weapons from Wayne Industries which is actually Philip selling them weapons after being forced to join the gang. Bruce discovers his uncle's affiliation and goes to tell Alfred Pennyworth, but a bomb from the Red Hood Gang to "welcome [Bruce] back to the city" which blows up the apartment.[41]
The Red Hood Gang's motivation comes to light where it's revealed that they had been inspired by the impact that the murder of Thomas and Martha Wayne had upon the city, making Gotham residents fearful as no one's safe from crime since the rich and powerful could be gunned down by a random criminal. Embracing nihilism, the Red Hood Gang killed, robbed and caused suffering to make the average citizen know their lives are worthless, and they can and will be murdered at any given moment.[42]
The Red Hood Gang's campaign of terror is a plan to take over the Axis Chemical Plant's resources to create a flesh-eating bacteria. Batman lures the Gotham police to the plant. During the raid and the battle that ensues, Kane is mortally wounded by the leader who accuses him of betrayal. Most of the gang is arrested, while Batman goes after the leader who ultimately falls into a container of chemicals rather than be taken alive. A few days later, police discover Distal as the gang's dead leader stuffed into a barrel of lye. The lye has dissolved Distal's remains, meaning there's no way to tell when he was killed. Bruce surmises that the Red Hood Gang's leader (Philip's killer) was an impostor who killed Distal and took his place, but there's no way to confirm this nor know when the impostor murdered Distal.[43]
