Jochi is the son of Mongul MDCCXCI, who succeeded his father as ruler of Warworld after his father's defeat. Unlike his predecessors, he did not take the name Mongul for himself.
History
Jochi visited Earth's champions intending to make them pay for his father's defeat. Superman didn't want to harm innocents in the cross fire, so Jochi invited him, Batman, and two of each of their families to challenge him aboard Warworld. Jochi gave them a day to accept, or face the consequences.
When the champions returned, Jochi was being challenged by a potential successor for the domain of Warworld, but a stranger aided him in his enemy's defeat just as they were about to eliminate him. Jochi reluctantly had to accept the "Batman Clan's" claim on his life after Mongul's defeat. As the fights raged on to the final battle, Warworld's council saw the Earthlings' reluctance to kill their enemies and decided to destroy Earth, but Jochi instead desired to inspire a better, more merciful way of rule. His people rejected such doctrine and were about to destroy the planet when Superman pushed the Warworld alongside all it's inhabitants to the Phantom Zone, imprisoning Jochi with his hateful subjects.
He slayed all his rebellious followers, remaining alone on his now broken world alongside his father, who showed disgust to what his son did to his army before piercing his chest with his sword, proclaiming himself as Warworld's sole ruler.[1]
