Biography
Victor Zsasz had amassed a large personal fortune in addition to his family's wealth. One night, he ended up in the Penguin's casino, where he gambled everything he owned and ended up losing it all; afterward, he saw that his life was empty, driven by desire, and there was no point in living. While he was attempting suicide by jumping from Gotham Bridge, a homeless man tried to assault him with a knife. Instinctively grabbing the knife, Zsasz saw in the man's eyes that all life is meaningless and that nothing nor anyone matters. He then proceeded to stab the man to death as a "gift" for saving his life. From then on, he dedicated himself to "liberating" others from their pointless existence.

Year One
When the Justice League go to Arkham to round up the insane inmates and move them to a more secure location, Zsasz interrupts an argument between Superman and Batman, taunting Superman and asking him if he felt the 'release' from taking a life. Wonder Woman then has Cyborg open Zsasz's cell door, much to Batman's horror and Zsasz's delight, only for the insane killer to be quickly swept away by the Flash to the secure location Superman has created for the Arkham patients.

Zsasz attempts to flee into an alley, but Batman cripples him with his Batarang. A furious Batman beats Zsasz, demanding who sends him. Zsasz answers if that's the only thing he wanted to know, and Batman answers "yes!" lands another punch to his face. Damian stands before them and tells his father to kill him or he will. Batman reluctantly tells him if he wanted to kill Zsasz before Damian tells, "the real question, father, is why don't you?".
While Batman engages against Wonder Woman and Hal Jordan after he beats Superman via by taking the 5-U-93-R pill, Zsasz later asks if he can kill Batman before Damian knocks him out.
