Is it wrong that I want to write a story in which Ra's al Ghul wins? I don't want him to destroy the world or anything, but if he's to retain any credibility as Batman's deadliest foe, isn't he about due for a win? At this point even a Pyrrhic victory over "the Detective" would greatly improve his average. (Of course, "at this point" in the DCU Ra's al Ghul is dead, but death is even less of a barrier to the Demon's Head than it is to most of his oft-resurrected comic book brethren.)

Ra's al Ghul - the Demon's Head (death is but a temporary setback)
Talia al Ghul - the de facto Demon's Head
Nyssa Raatko - good riddance to bad rubbish
Ibn al Xu'ffasch "Damien Wayne" - the Son of the Bat (an idea I oppose but not an idea without real potential)
