Thirty-five years into the future, Brother Eye has managed to transform the majority of superheroes into cyborg bugs. As the last remaining heroes launch one final attack on Brother Eye’s power source, Bruce Wayne creates a time machine in an attempt to prevent Brother Eye’s ascension and this future. Before Bruce is able to use the time machine, he gets ambushed by cyborg bugs, forcing Batman (Terry McGinnis) to travel through time instead. Arriving in the past, Terry realizes that he has arrived seven years too late, with what he was trying to prevent already in play. Terry is then attacked by the cyborg bug of Plastique, which he subsequently dismantles. Deciding to break into the Terrifitech Tower to keep Brother Eye deactivated, Mr. Terrific's building design begins to lock in, forcing Terry out. Retreating and disguising himself as a homeless man, Terry places the cyborg in a shopping cart and begins to slum outside of the Terrifitech Tower.
