History[]
Origin[]
Dr. Achilles Milo was once a renowned chemist, but he pursued a life of crime as an infamous underworld doctor in Gotham City. Dr. Milo tended to cater to the wealthy. At times, Milo tried to kill Batman with his creations. It is believed that the chemical concoctions that Dr. Milo used to create his creatures are what drove him criminally insane.
During Batman's early years, Professor Milo was conducting a teleportation experiment that Batman found out about and confronted him at his laboratory. Milo tried to stop Batman from ruining his experiment but he was beaten, however one of his henchmen named Leo Scarlett was sucked into the portal and presumably died, much to Batman's grief. The apparent death of Leo Scarlett went on to haunt Batman for years after the fact, and was dubbed his "Unsolved Case".
Gorillas in Our Midst[]
Dr. Milo used a group of mind-controlled rats to steal diamonds from an exchange he checked out himself. However, the diamonds turned out to be fakes, and Batman and the Spectre appeared to confront him. While Spectre initially tried to kill Milo, Batman stopped him, saying that the law would deal with Milo. Milo then quickly ingested a serum that transformed him into a giant monster.
Initially, the mutated Dr Milo was seemingly indestructable, easily grabbing a Batarang with his bare teeth, chewing it into sharp pieces of metal and spitting it back at Batman. He easily lifted Batman, hurling him across a table full of chemicals, then got in a powerful bear-hug, attempting to crush Batman. However, he was sprayed in the eyes, causing him to flinch back.
While distracted, Batman defeated him with a powerful kick, throwing him into an electrical conduit, turning him back into his regular form. Batman snapped handcuffs around Milo's wrists, saying again that the law would deal with him. The Spectre told Batman that he was disappointed that the Dark Knight went easy on such criminals, and vanished. Milo said that Batman should have listened to the 'ghost', and cockily exclaimed that he would be back out on the streets in a few months. Batman continued to uphold his faith in the law and exited via the roof, leaving Milo for the police.
Once Batman left, the Spectre returned and told Milo that it was time for his evil to consume him. Spectre turned Milo into living cheese, and released Milo's mutant rats, who quickly surrounded Milo, and ate him off-camera.
