History
Nomoz used his knowledge of hypnosis to unleash Jean-Paul's programming and introduced him to the Order of St. Dumas.[1] Nomoz provided Jean-Paul with the latest Azrael battle suit and he guided the new Angel of Vengeance against the demon Biis, who was killing members of the Order of St. Dumas.[2] Biis hurt Azrael and captured Batman, leaving Nomoz and Alfred to take care of the wounded Jean-Paul and plan the rescue of Batman. Soon, they went to Biis' hideout and broke inside the place.[3] However, after a brutal fight and a big explosion, Azrael managed to rescue Batman, despite Nomoz's instructions to let him die and eliminate Biis instead. Nomoz scolded Jean-Paul for neglecting his duty as Azrael, but Jean-Paul was sure he did the right thing.[4]
