[edit] Character History
Cosmo Krank is the former CEO of toy company Krank Co., which created incredible, futuristic toys. However, Bruce Wayne notices that Krank's toys are very dangerous and leads a campaign to ban them, eventually closing Krank Co. for good. Krank becomes a masked supervillain, and uses his deadly toys to get revenge against Wayne.
He sends one of his deadly toy robots to attack Bruce Wayne, but is stopped by Batman. Then, he sends one of his zoo toys to attack Wayne and his protector, Detective Cash Tankinson. Later, Krank sets up a trap at Krank Co. HQ, with an army of robots Batman has to battle.
Not knowing that Bruce Wayne and Batman are the same person, Krank falls for his trap when Wayne lets himself be kidnapped, and be chased by Tankinson to his lair, Krankytown. Batman and Tankinson work together to defeat an army of evil toys. They defeat Krank by using his remote in order to make the Zoo-Pets attack him.
[edit] Powers and Abilities
While Cosmo Krank does not have any powers of his own, he has a remote control that allows him to control many of his deadly toys. They include: the Cosmo Flyer, a hovering disc that allows him to fly; the Krank-Bots, small robots that launch powerful explosive rockets and bombs; and the Zoo-Pets, plus toys that can grow iron claws and spiky tails to kill.
