In the end... All roads lead back... To Darkness.
~ Barbatos

Summary

Barbatos, also know as Great Dragon or Bat-God, is the ruler of the Dark Multiverse. Once his sole purpose was to destroy the unstable universes created by his master, who crafted universes from the fears and hopes of all beings within the Multiverse, and return their energies to the World Forge. Barbatos eventually killed his master and corrupted the World Forge.

Later, Barbatos planned to absorb the regular DC multiverse into his own. He was able to come to Earth at some point, but was repelled by Hawkman and Hawkgirl at the cost of their lives. When Batman was sent to the dawn of humanity by Darkseid, Barbatos noticed him and decided to turn him into a portal to enter the regular multiverse.

The Court of Owls manipulated events throughout history in order for Batman to be injected with four of the five metals needed to create the portal, and after the fifth was injected in the present day, Barbatos was able to transport himself and the Dark Knights to the Earth with the intent of sinking all universes into the nightmarish Dark Multiverse.
