As a salvage team on a large ship was busy working on a salvage job. They got lucky and found a rather larger propeller plane at the bottom of the bay. Using divers to install balloons on the plane to slowly raise it up to the surface of the water. It was a big arduous task for them but they had big hopes of a large treasure score in the end. However what they didn't know was that this plane in particular did indeed have a lot of treasure onboard and something of a monster as well.
Englishman Simon Hurt is the kind of character that can only exist in comic books. A devil-worshipping ancestor of Bruce Wayne, Thomas Wayne (now going by Dr. Simon Hurt) is just about as evil as his fake name suggests. He is an immortal being with a penchant for devious machinations and hypnosis.
Thomas Wayne was born at some point prior or during the 18th century into the wealthy Wayne family. Thomas was a devil-worshiper who attempted to summon the bat-god Barbatos, but instead was confronted by the being known as the Hyper-Adapter.
The Hyper-Adapter was a cosmic being released by Darkseid after the New God was mortally shot by Batman in a much farther future timeline. When Batman shot Darkseid, Darkseid fired his omega beams at the vigilante, seemingly killing him but in-reality dislodging him in time. The Hyper-Adapter had the purpose of hunting down Batman and killing him.
When the Hyper-Adapter was summoned by Thomas Wayne in the past, the being's omega-energies bonded with Thomas and caused him to become immortal with the power of hypnosis and illusions. In addition to this, he became in a sense bound to his descendant Bruce Wayne with the purpose of destroying him left by the Hyper-Adapter. However outside of having an unusually long lifespan, the intelligence that comes with centuries of study, and Hypnotic/Illusion skills he gained from his union.
Meanwhile as the salvagers were excited to recover the lost plane to the surface, they used a tugboat to bring it to the shore. After a long process they managed to tow the old wet plane into their nearby warehouse to drain it and check it out. Once they popped open the hatch and let the water drain they soon realized the smell of dead sea life still inside and exposed to the oxygen. So after putting on some face masks they began unloading the treasures inside the plane only to discover it was indeed valuable treasure such as golden statues, a golden coffin, jewelry, gold galleons and precious jewels. The salvagers were excited to get a huge score like this as they emptied everything and dried it off to load into their moving truck so they could haul it to their buyer later on the next day.
Once they were done they decided to take a shower to clean up and enjoy a few cold ones to celebrate their victory with some old school rock. After a lot of beer they were pretty drunk and listening to their favorite tunes they were wishing for some hot babes to join them and just like that several hot beautiful women joined them and got VERY friendly with them in a romantic way. These men were in hog heaven as they were having a very good time.
However little the men know, the golden coffin was now open in the truck and a man in a soggy designer suit was walking up to them as he did his best to fix his slimy hair and moustache. Then he reached into his jacket and pulled out a waterproof case containing a vial and syringe. He filled the syringe with the strange green liquid and slowly approached the men who believed in the illusion of getting physical with a hot woman. The wet man then squirted a drop of serum into their mouths and then put his syringe and vial back into the case. He smiled as he bowed and said, "Thank you for the rescue boys. Sorry it had to be this way. Normally you would have met someone. Someone very special. Someone who won't press charges and love you for your money." Then he looted the men for their IDs, money, wallets and car keys. He then said, "To mirth, to merriment... to manslaughter."
Once he was done he got into the moving truck and took off into the darkness. He found a cigar and lit it as he said, "Now where is that do-gooder relative of mine. I need to think of something sinister to send him on his way to the river of Styx. Then he played the radio on the old song station. He heard a familiar song that made him smile and began to sing along.
Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear

Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear
