Pre-Crisis: An English crime-fighter who, along with his father, fought crime in England as the Knight and the Squire after being inspired by Batman and Robin . The Squire was in reality the son of the Earl of Wordenshire, a small village in England. Whenever their services were needed, the bell at the Wordenshire Village rectory was rang. The Squire, along with his father, joined forces several times with Batman and Robin, and other "Batmen of All Nations", and was a charter member of the Club of Heroes.
Post Crisis: In the early 1950's, Cyril and his father, along with several other war patriots, became some of the first costumed heroes to emerge outside of the United States. Taking the name the Squire after his father, who had used the name during World War II when apprenticed to Sir Justin, the Shining Knight, he and his father came under the supervision of the newly formed Dome as one of the Global Guardians. The Squire fought crime in his native England. Sir Cyril eventually became the new Earl of Wordenshire and served the British government as the head of a secret agent service dedicated to protecting Great Britain. As some point, Sir Cyril became the new Knight (II) and partnered with a new Squire (III). The new Knight and Squire have joined the International Ultramarine Corps.
