The Thinker src

The Thinker ran a factory prison for a number of years before Batman and Robin put him out of business.

The Thinker ruled over a secret city behind high stone walls in the heart of the desert. The city's only factory produced advanced vehicles and weapons for the underworld, and was staffed by ex-convicts, under prison-like conditions. Small infractions were punished with death, and any unruly workers routinely disappeared.

His citadel was infiltrated in 1947 by Batman and Robin, who armed the workmen with some of the factory's own weapons, and led an overthrow of the entire complex. Many or most of the Thinker's gunmen were disabled and captured, and the Thinker himself was accidentally electrocuted.

  • Leadership: His gang comprised the security staff of an enormous factory and city.

Other Characteristics

  • This version of the Thinker, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths event and later restored following the rebirth of the infinite Multiverse during the Dark Crisis of 2022-2023. Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
