bullet::::- in the first film of christopher nolan's batman trilogy, "batman begins" (2005), they are called the league of shadows. the foot soldiers are martial artists who utilized a number of martial arts including ninjutsu, jujitsu and various forms of kung fu. a mysterious man calling himself henri ducard (liam neeson) recruited and trained bruce wayne (christian bale) for a man that he called their leader ra's al ghul (ken watanabe) for an unspecified period of time. he told wayne the story about how the injustice of his wife being taken from him led him onto the path of the league of shadows. bruce rejected the league when he was ordered to kill a criminal to prove his commitment to justice and he learned that the league wanted him to lead a mission to destroy gotham city. the league's base was destroyed in the subsequent battle as wayne fought the man that he had believed to be ra's al ghul and left him for dead. the league later enacted their plan to destroy gotham and ducard revealed to wayne that he was ra's al ghul at bruce wayne's birthday party. they attacked gotham because they felt that the city had become decadent. ra's al ghul said that the league had worked to restore the world to balance throughout history as human civilization achieved decadence around the world. ra's stated "we sacked rome, loaded trade ships with plague rats, burned london to the ground". the plan was to use the stolen wayne enterprises microwave emitter to vaporize scarecrow's (cillian murphy) toxin and have the city's inhabitants tear each other apart in a state of fear. despite their best efforts, bruce wayne, now batman, was able to fight off four members of the league single-handedly, before defeating ra's al ghul himself aboard a train where ra's al ghul was left to die as it crashed.

the second version appears in "deathstroke" vol. 3, which erases the previous volume from continuity, with jericho once again being his heroic and peace-loving self. due to his enormous powers, jericho was captured by his own grandfather, charles wilson. under the alias of odysseus, he wanted to siphon joe's metahuman power to become practically invincible and experimented on jericho, awakening new psychic powers within him. jericho was eventually saved by his father and sister rose, but the ordeal left jericho with problems controlling his new powers, and sought solitude while trying to run from odysseus. sometime later in gotham, jericho met with rose, who tried to find someone to help jericho learn to control his new powers, but the meeting went astray and odysseus shows up to reclaim jericho. due to the arrival of deathstroke, jericho was able to escape his grandfather's clutches and once again seclude himself. sometime later, it was revealed that jericho went to ra's al ghul to seeks sanctuary, and had gained better control of his psychic powers. he and ra's al ghul reappeared before his father and sister again to save them from his father's enemies, who are also part of the nova council, an anti-metahuman organization that targets criminals and those who uses their powers for money. weeks later, jericho and his family made a preemptive strike against his father's enemies in which rose fell under the mental control of lawman and jericho had to unleash a strong mental blast to sever the link, but injured rose's mind in the process. when ra's al ghul offered to heal rose with a special "elixir" in return of deathstroke's fealty to the league of assassins, deathstroke accepted and ra's al ghul instructed jericho to dive into his sister's subconsciousness to bring out of her comatose state. after they retreated, jericho and rose also revealed, much to their father's dislike, that they joined the league out of debt for ra's al ghul's assistance and to make sure rose would have access to the "elixir", which ra's al ghul stated she would need to take daily if she wanted to live. in their next attack on danger island, jericho used his powers to fight (non-violently) with his family, protecting with his family an energy shield and using his telepathy to halt the enemies' movements. when deathstroke disobeyed ra's al ghul, who was attempting to get the nova council into the league by sparing their lives, al ghul killed deathstroke's ex-ally victor ruiz, causing the two men began fighting one another. jericho intervenes and threats ra's al ghul to stop or he'll kill everyone with a psychic blast. having read ra's al ghul's mind, jericho also reveals the "elixir" rose took was just a stimulant, therefore ra's al ghul never saved rose's life. they rescind their oath to the league of assassins. once ra's al ghul releases them and left, jericho and rose tenderly said goodbye to their father, who decided they should distance themselves from him for their safety, and departed from the island.
