Harbinger (Infinite Crisis Video Game: Earth-48)

**Harbinger** was an agent of the Monitor, recruited by him in order to stop his enemies from conquering the Multiverse.

## History

The Harbinger was a resident of Earth-48, which was struck by mysterious drones trying to conquer the Multiverse and armed with corrupted Monitor technology. The last Monitor Nix Uotan came to the universe's aid, but was unable to stop the desolation. He later asked Harbinger to help him in stopping his mysterious foe and she agreed.

As part of her task, Harbinger recruited various heroes across the multiverse, which included: Green Lantern, Lord Zod, Supergirl, and Zatanna of Earth-13; Wonder Woman of Earth-17; and Robin of Earth-43. While traveling across the multiverse to secure artifacts the Monitor's enemy could utilize, she came to Earth-19 and successfully recruited that world's Catwoman. She also convinced the hero to let her borrow her abilities, placing Catwoman in suspended animation until the job was done.

On Earth-0, Harbinger struck Gotham shops selling antiquities. This however invited Batman's scrutiny, as she was using the same methods as his world's Catwoman. When she accidentally triggered the silent alarm at Leachman's Rarities while trying to secure the Eternal Key, he confronted her and realized she was not Catwoman. Harbinger attacked him when he took the artifact, but he proved a match for her physical abilities. Batman however struggled to understand when she stated that the multiverse was in peril and that she needed the eternal Key, asking her to explain it again.

Instead of explaining, Harbinger took batman to Earth-19, to show him the multiverse was real. Batman became shocked upon seeing that universe's Gotham City, which looked eerily familiar, but was powered by gaslight, After allowing him to recover his senses, harbinger took him to a building and showed him Selina's body, stating she had been suspended in animation so she could take her abilities. She then explained to him that the multiverse was under threat from an unknown force and weapons like the Eternal Key could help any side that had it. When she asked for the key, Batman decided to trust her, but the Two-Face of Earth-17 soon attacked them.

Two-Face blasted harbinger through the chest after gaining power from the Eternal Key, before flipping his coin to decide whether to conquer Earth-19, or another universe. As the coin landed in favor of another uni8vrse, he decided to attack Earth-48 in revenge. Harbinger pleaded with Batman to stop him, before dying.
