Doom Patrol

The Doom Patrol is a fictional super-hero adventure team featured in comic books published by DC Comics.

Revised origin
An aging, wheelchair-bound mad scientist known as the Chief (Niles Caulder), created a super-powered team of outcasts by arranging "accidents" on people with fantastic lives. He ruined their lives by making them power-housed freaks so they’d have nothing to lose, influencing them to go on suicide missions prematurely to save the world. Caulder's first plan was to recreate the Robotman like the Mystery Man from the 1940s via implanting a human brain in a robot body. He first caused a lab explosion destroying the body of a colleague. Planning to put his brain in the robot, his plan was foiled when his colleague's brain was saved by his pet gorilla.
