Biography
The Upside-Down Man
For many years, they came to watch the mortals of Earth from the other side of the veil. At some point, Zatara fell into their realm where the Otherkind had enjoyed torturing him where they ripped him apart and re-stitched his body again in an endless cycle. (Justice League Dark v2 #3)
Nabu came to believe that widespread use of magic was a stain on the world and wanted to remove it from existence. Thus, he opened the door that attracted the Otherkind with the Upside-Down Man eventually manifesting at the Tower of Fate. Once there, he encountered the Justice League Dark who sought to stop him from consuming the world's magic. (Justice League Dark v2 #3)
Overview
Personality and attributes
He came to consider mortals to be little more than thieves and killers who had stolen the art of magic. In fact, he considered them children who did not understand the depths of the power they had taken from the Otherkind. (Justice League Dark v2 #3)
The Upside-Down Man claimed that the Otherkind represented horror itself and were a reminder to mortals to fear the dark. (Justice League Dark v2 #3)
Powers and abilities
As one of the Otherkind, the Upside-Down Man was said to be a being that was composed of living magic. Bodies were a new concept to his kind and they had to assemble the flesh and bones in a form to interact with the mortal planes. Fatal wounds inflicted on his body could easily be repaired with the Upside-Down Man not really being harmed. (Justice League Dark v2 #3)
Such was his mystical powers that he could re-order reality with but a gesture. This could see him to cause the ground to turn into liquid tentacles to entangle his targets or he could cause a living being to melt into a puddle yet still remain alive. The Upside-Down Man was powerful enough to easily repel an Avatar of the Green and cause its body to become decayed. (Justice League Dark v2 #3)
