Batman : Felix Faust was once a respected professor of archaeology, but when he became fascinated with the mystic arts, he was kicked out of the university for his heretical ideas. He swore revenge on those who mocked him, then several later disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
Wonder Woman : [Walks over to grey decayed heads with horrified faces up on a high shelf] I have a pretty good idea what happened to them...

Wonder Woman : Long ago, in ancient times, my mother Hippolyta fell in love with a god, Lord Hades. When war broke out between the Olympian gods and their ancient foes, the Titans, Hades struck a treasonous bargain with the enemy. He would deliver Mount Olympus into the Titans' hands. In return, he would be given dominion over all humanity. Hades tricked my mother into opening the gates of Olympus to the invading Titans. There was a battle of which the muses still sing. The gods fought back and eventually prevailed. As punishment for his treachery, Zeus cast Hades into the Pit of Tartarus, where he would rule over the dead for all eternity. And for her unwitting role in Hades' plot, my mother was charged with guarding the gateway to the underworld. To make sure the gate could never be unlocked, its only key was broken up and scattered across the globe. Mother told me she kept one of the pieces in the temple as a daily reminder of her eternal shame.
J'onn J'onzz : Then these relics we've been gathering are parts of the key?
The Flash : But why would Faust want it?
Batman : Only one reason.
[assembling the pieces]
Batman : He intends to use it.

The Flash : [battling growing vines] Anybody got some weedkiller?
