The story of the Batman of Earth -22 was not much different from that of any other version of the Caped Crusader. The Batman Who Laughs continued on with his own plans, eventually acquiring cosmic power and becoming a bigger threat than Perpetua herself. He convinced Perpetua, the original creator of the multiverse, to choose him as her lieutenant over Lex Luthor as his vision was limited by his ego.
