  Underworld Unleashed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Underworld Unleashed was a crossover by DC Comics in 1995.
The main plot involved the new ruler of Hell, a demon called Neron, offering nearly every single villain of the DCU an "upgrade" in exchange for their soul.
Neron duped five villains in the Flash's Rogue Gallery--he promised them a chance to go down in history as five of the greatest villains ever.

 Neron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Neron was a demon prince of great power, though he has been reduced to a lower station due to his actions.
Neron was a Demon Prince responsible for enhancing dozens of supervillains (and a few superheroes) in exchange for their immortal souls, during the Underworld Unleashed story arc.
He would do so by 'tempting' them - offering something the victim would feel would be his or her heart's desire, in exchange for their soul (for example, when attempting to tempt Green Lantern Kyle Rayner, he offered to bring back his girlfreind, Alex DeWitt, from the dead).

 Unleashed   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
It takes little to top "The One," but Li's "Unleashed" is the most interesting English-language film he has made yet -- an action picture with the emotional simplicity of a bedtime story, painted in the grimy colors of the London underworld.
But the same thing that makes "Unleashed" a marketing challenge -- its refusal to be distracted by exploitable but unnecessary elements -- will ensure that Li's existing fans don't feel cheated by the film.
Li's role is the biggest stretch he has made in English to date (admittedly, it's a part tailor-made for an actor more comfortable in another tongue), and he gets our sympathy easily in between the adrenalized moments.

Unleashed is the story of Danny (Jet Li), a slave who has lived his whole life without any sort of normal human education, with the mind and personality of a young child, with only one lesson learned: how to fight.
Treated like a dog by his owner/boss, Bart (Bob Hoskins) which includes having to wear a collar, Danny has been raised to be a lethal fighting machine who fights in illegal gladiator-style fight clubs, where he earns lots of money for Bart as the undisputed champion.

In addition, Circe was also an enemy of the Amazons of Themyscira, which proved to be her undoing as Hippolyta, the Queen of the Amazons, pulled some strings and had her sent to Tartarus as punishment for her many misdeeds.
It was there, in the underworld, that Circe endured centuries of horrific punishments for her crimes until, finally, it was decided that she should be released…under the condition that she not seek retribution against Hippolyta.

Director Len Wiseman (who, by the way, is engaged to his leading lady) co-created this coagulated concoction and apparently sank his teeth into more than he could chew.
Fabulous--genuinely fabulous--cinematography, sets and costume design are almost, but not quite, enough to distract from Underworld's discombobulated plot that offers explanation at all the wrong times and glosses over obvious plot holes even Ed Wood wouldn't miss.

Danny the Dog (Jet Li) has been raised under extremely brutal conditions by a gangster named Bart (Bob Hoskins) to serve as an animalistic payment incentive to underworld types.
Danny’s chance encounter with a blind piano tuner (Morgan Freeman) and his piano prodigy stepdaughter (Kerry Condon) offer the vicious man-dog a glimpse of his inner humanity and send him sniffing into his past.
As competent as Unleashed is, the movie never transcends its genre limitations and remains little more than an urban fantasy.
