  • Ubu is a servant and aid to Ra's al Ghul.
  • Ubu was Ra's al Ghul's trusted henchman.
  • A creature from Japanese folklore. If a mother died from giving birth and was not buried properly, she will turn into an Ubume and her baby will become an Ubu. An Ubu's appearance varies depending on where it lives. Thus the Ubu of Niigata prefecture and Sado Island have a spider like appearance. To escape them one must keep running, throw some garment such as a shoe behind you, and tell it that "it's your mother." This will cause the Ubu to stop chasing someone.
  • A master assassin and one of Ra's al Ghul's most trusted servants, the ever vigilant and loyal bodyguard of Al Ghul, Ubu never allows anyone to get too close or precede the glorious steps of his master. Ubu has had to curb his anger toward Batman and be patient with his master's respect and admiration for The Dark Knight. Still he harbors much jealousy towards Batman. There have been several Ubus throughout the Batman comics.
  • When Ra's Al Ghul decided to retire, Ubu and his master searched for a worthy replacement as the head of the League of Assassins around the world. After determining Batman as a possible successor, Ubu participated in a staged kidnapping of Ghul's daughter Talia in order to enroll Batman's services. Ubu and Ghul took Batman across the planet to find the "missing" Talia. However, Batman caught on to the plan and decisively beat him in combat.
  • From the website of puppeteer Demian: [1] [2] A vulgar tyrant’s mad quest for power, instigated by his selfish wife, prompts him to kill the King and usurp the throne. While in power, Pere Ubu destroys everything he touches. Eventually, his army is defeated and he is nullified by the supreme power of the Police Force. The original music by Jim Steinman added urgency and punch to the Uburian discord and mayhem.
