Death-Man was a villain with one gimmick: he could put himself in a yoga trance that resembles death, which he used to escape police custody. He only made one appearance in the American comics in the 1960's, because once his gimmick was discovered by Batman and Robin, there wasn't much else to do with the character. However, Death-Man's one U.S. outing was one of the Batman stories retold in the 1960's Batman manga by Jiro Kuwata in Japan, where he was renamed Lord Death Man. And it is under that name that he was revived in 2010, as a Japan-based, death-obsessed villain with the stated goal of "kill[ing] all Japanese crimefighters!"
