His Post-Crisis origin story is told in the graphic novel Batman: Birth of the Demon (1992) by Dennis O'Neil and Norm Breyfogle. Ra's al Ghul's real name, early life, and exact age have been described differently by various writers. For his own part, Batman's opposition to Raʼs is complicated by both his own respect for al Ghul's genius (if not his goals and methods) and his attraction to his daughter, Talia, which she reciprocates. He is one of the few criminals in Batman's rogues gallery to have deduced his secret identity as Bruce Wayne, but keeps silent on the matter due to the same sense of respect for Batman.

He regards Batman as his worthiest opponent, addressing him as "Detective" out of respect for his intellectual brilliance, and has frequently sought to make the Dark Knight his successor. He is aided in this quest by the Lazarus Pits, reservoirs of rejuvenating chemicals that restore the dead and dying to life these pits have granted him a lifespan of several centuries. Ra's usually tries to assault the world's human populace with a biological weapon, such as a genetically-engineered virus. He believes that the best way to achieve this balance is to eliminate most of humanity. Raʼs al Ghul is an international criminal mastermind whose ultimate goal is a world in perfect environmental balance.
