History
Little is known of the Gaucho's activities. Years ago he was part of a shadowy group known as "Spyral", but he ceased his involvement when a woman he had feelings for died while working for them.
Subsequent to this, he was inspired by reports of the Batman to become a hero. When Batman gathered together the vigilantes who became the International Club of Heroes, he was among their number. When the group disbanded, Gaucho took it better than most, using Batman's example to become a respected hero.
He returned to the Club of Heroes for their reunion, and came to Gotham City with the rest of the group to deal with the Black Glove at the end of their campaign against Batman. Upon arriving, the group rescued Robin from an attack by the Club of Villains and Gaucho eliminated the threat of Pierrot Lunaire.
He was later seen fighting alongside Batman Incorporated and was counted among their members.
