Equinox is the overarching antagonist of Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

History[]

Origin[]

Equinox was an orphan who was chosen by the Lords of Order and Chaos to create peace by keeping good and evil in check. Unfortunately, the pressure of Equinox's duty eventually drove him insane and he abandoned his masters to carry out his duty in a way that made sense to his twisted mind.

Mystery in Space![]

Equinox captures Gorilla Grodd and The Question and attempts to kill them both before Batman intervenes. After a short chase, Equinox apparently falls to his death. He is later shown to have survived.

When OMAC Attacks![]

Equinox attempts to destroy New York City by manipulating OMAC and Shrapnel into fighting inside a nuclear power plant. However, Batman shows up to keep the plant from self-destructing and the two engage in battle, only for Batman to be defeated quite easily and the timely intervention of OMAC (in the form of Buddy Blank) gives him enough time to manually shut down the power plant. Despite Batman's stubbornness with his fate being his own, Equinox heals him from the brink of death and leaves before he could be contained.

The Fate of Equinox[]

Equinox steals the powers of the Lords of Order and Chaos, his former masters and plans to recreate a new, balanced universe in his own image. To combat the powered-up Equinox, Dr. Fate borrows the powers from several heroes and gives them to Batman to help him fight Equinox. However, Batman is eventually still defeated in battle. Batman surrenders but then tells Equinox that since he hates his old masters he is not a balanced being, and if he is not in balance then everything he had done was all for nothing. Equinox begins to (as Batman puts it) crack and he takes the opportunity to destroy Equinox once and for all.

Time Out for Vengeance![]

It was revealed that his consciousness was shattered into a dozen fragments and scattered throughout time and space. Each aspect embodied a part of Equinox-Prime's mind. His hate arrived in the far future and entered a computer which it used to create and animate a bunch of robots to form his Batman Revenge Squad, sending them to erase the Batmen from the Time-Space Continuum. Rip Hunter discovered this and alerted the Justice League International who each paired off into different groups. Once the Batman Revenge Squad robots were taken down, the Justice League International arrived in the future where Equinox was, having captured a Robot Batman. Equinox' conscious merged some of the remaining robots into one giant robot that Equinox' mind could inhabit, but the captured robot Batman freed himself from Equinox's control and summoned three Batmen from other times to help him fight Equinox. The four Batmen neutralized Equinox and the Batman of the present returned to existence, but Equinox's consciousness separated into 12 fragments means that they haven't heard the last of Equinox.

Powers and Abilities[]

Equinox displayed almost supernatural abilities such as turning Batarangs into real bats, making objects snap with a mere thought and even bringing back creatures long extinct. Despite this, he still displays great physical strength as he’s able to take on Batman in a fist fight and wins.
