The damage gives Doomsday a chance to make money
In the footsteps of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo Dark Nights L Metal In the heyday of DC’s New Age of Heroes, Damage debuted as DC’s long-awaited answer to the Hulk. There’s a long list of borrowings that DC and Marvel have made from each other, but since Damage is a soldier whose entire physiology has been altered by an experimental serum, the similarities are too close to be called a coincidence.

Sideways is important to the DC Multiverse
There is no doubt that Sideway is a hero similar to Spider-Man, albeit with a completely different power. With the ability to teleport between dimensions, it didn’t take long for this new hero to become vital to DC, considering how many dimensional-clash crises seem to be happening in DC these days. And it’s not just a jump, as he can manipulate black holes and has superhuman strength, proving he’s more than just DC’s doorman.
Sideways proved to be a deciding factor for the Justice League in Dark Crisisand at the same time extremely underrated. Sideways’ abilities mean he is destined to return to DC’s future when he needs to travel from one event to another. Hopefully he can take on a bigger role along the way.

Trinity will make its official debut soon
Superman has a son (and several clones), Batman has a whole bunch of orphans that make up his flying family. So, even if Diana had several worthy successors throughout the history of comics, It’s time for Wonder Woman to have a biological offspring to call her own. Enter Trinity, who is coming soon to the DC Universe.
Trinity’s story is currently told primarily through future glimpses in the works of Tom King and Daniel Sempere.

Dreamer is DC’s best hope for preserving the future
Foresight is a superpower of unique power, and the Dreamer has it in spades. A dreamer can not only see visions of the future in her sleep, but also she can access dreams in a way that allows her to detonate dream energy in explosive bursts and create constructs from them. She is not just a mystic, but a brilliant fighter in great shape.
This friend of Superman saved him and his friends from death several times and quickly went from being a minor character to an important part of DC history.

Yara Flor takes the Wonder Woman mythos to the next level
This Wonder Woman ally is the most powerful Amazon warrior DC fans have had the pleasure of meeting. Brazilian-Amazonian demigod Yara Flor is a full-fledged warrior, and not a fish out of water in a world of men. Her time as “Wonder Girl” showed fans the dark side of the Wonder Woman mythos as she clashed with the gods, and even training with the gods on Mount Olympus (something not even something Wonder Woman liked).
Yara Flor presents a new vision of Wonder Girl for the modern era, steeped in the Brazilian history of the Amazons and the mythological stories of its people. Yara Flor is ready for battle, and her debut marks the beginning of a new era of Wonder Woman, where the Amazons are a new force to be reckoned with.

Queen Brainiac overthrows the DC Universe
It’s not often that villains take down the entire DC Universe, but Brainiac Queen is up to the task. A relatively new character with a variation on the story of one of Superman’s oldest villains. She not only destroys an entire planet and its race, but also defeats Superman and marks the events of “Absolute Power”. Not all villains are hard-hitting or superpowered, and Brainiac Queen proves that careful planning can bring down an empire.
To make matters worse, Brainiac Queen took control of Jonathan Kent and turned him into a cyborg. Under the leadership of Amanda Waller, this supervillain is the bane of DC and has already proven himself to be one of the worst villains Superman and company have faced.

City Boy Has the Most Unique Power in Comics
One of the most interesting abilities to appear in recent comics, City Boy’s abilities are all contained in the name: ability communicate with buildings and see the past and future in them. The city boy is the city hero of the modern era, powerful enough to become the next Superman. While Superman can hear the heartbeat of every living thing on earth, City Boy goes further and feeds on the complete consciousness of his city.
Darkseid even tried to recruit City Boy, as every DC hero and villain began to realize that he was more than just a kid and could hold the world—or at least the city—in his hands. Remembering Grant Morrison’s Doom Patrol series, in which the main character was a sentient city, The city boy is the city hero who speaks for his entire city as it, in turn, speaks through him.

Failsafe is Batman if his justice had no limits
It’s not DC unless it has some version of Batman in it. Batman is known for his many contingency plans, but more often than not they come to fruition by accident, tearing the Justice League itself apart. One of the newest contingency plans was a full-fledged character called Failsafe – only it was meant to be Batman’s first contingency plan. If Batman ever breaks his no-kill rule, Failsafe will be there to destroy Batman and stop his killing spree. Unfortunately, Batman had to be there to stop Failsafe’s version of justice.
Failsafe merged with Batman’s alternate personality, Zur-En-Arr, and became a dictator of sorts for Gotham who believed himself to be the absolute pinnacle of what Batman should be: dark justice and no mercy. Failsafe became exactly what Batman was trying to avoid. He’s such a powerful character that his merciless victory made the Justice League look absolutely pathetic, not to mention his hand in the case of Absolute Power.

The Upside Down Man is DC’s Nightmare Creature
This character is not just a villain, but a super-powered Lovecraftian horror. One of the Others, the Upside Down Man is a terrifying being of pure horror, representing all the dark and twisted possibilities of magic in the DC Universe. Created from pure magic, the Upside Down Man can do almost nothing, such as molecular reconstruction, cosmic awareness, and interdimensional travel.
Heroes strongly associated with magic, such as Zatanna, Doctor Fate and Constantine, are virtually useless in the fight against this interdimensional immortal being whose entire existence owes to magic – not only that, but also the dark side of magic, as a kind of additional equation. If there is beauty in the DC Universe, then there must be an equal and opposite reaction of pure horror, and the Upside Down Man is that horror.

Fifth Dimensional Imps Assemble an Impressive Justice League
More powerful than any other roster the Justice League has created, this group of fifth-dimensional imps is the most powerful the Justice League has ever been. The likes of Bat-Mite, Night-Mite, and Mister Mxyztplk, who are constantly seen as tricksters with incredible reality-warping powers, are surely DC’s practical gods if they ever wanted to behave that way. Divinity never suited them and did not seem like fun.
Instead, they are fourth-wall-breaking imps who enjoy pranking heroes and ruining the universe when it suits their own agendas. They’re more like super-powered fans, sometimes diving into comics to change the continuity to better suit their tastes. And when they teamed up to fight the Doom Mite, they showed a version of the Justice League at their peak, breaking fourth walls and bending reality the way they wanted.

Jon Kent is even stronger than Superman
Even if Superman has no equal, Jon Kent as Superman’s son manages to pull out all the stops, showing that he can do more than just take on his father’s mantle. With the same powers as the Man of Steel and the same heart, Jon Kent was the main force keeping Superman’s legacy alive and keeping the symbol of hope in the skies when his father wasn’t strong enough to keep going. .
But it doesn’t end there because even Superman himself said that Jon Kent might just surpass Superman in strength and skill. He even has a few abilities that Superman doesn’t have, such as special heat vision unique to John. At one point he even sunbathed, showing off his strength, something not even Superman would do. If this is the future of DC, then comics are in good hands with the new Superman Jon Kent.

Erebus – god of absolute darkness DC
Erebus is the darkness at the end of everything. There are many gods that the Justice League faces off against, but this god of darkness and oblivion is beyond anything DC’s heroes know. Even Darkseid and his Anti-Life equation cower before this being, which is Anti-Life in physical form. Named after the ancient Greek god of the same name, Erebus represents not only what awaits after death, but also what was before life.
IN DCeased: War of the Unliving Gods #8 Tom Taylor, Trevor Hairsine, Lucas Meyer, Andy Lanning and Rain Beredo, The Anti-Life equation that creates zombies in the DC Universe is shown to be not a mathematical equation at all, but a being of pure darkness and extreme cosmic horror. The threat he posed to the entire universe was so great that Darkseid joined the Justice League to fight him.

DC fights its own creator: the goddess Perpetua
DC’s heroes have faced such powerful villains as Darkseid and Eclipso, but even the antagonist of the New Gods is nothing compared to the creator of the multiverse itself. Perpetua is a celestial and omnipotent being in DC, responsible for creating the DC multiverse until she was imprisoned. When the Batman Who Laughs teamed up with her in the events Hell Risen, James Tynion, Steve Epting, Nick Filardi and Travis Lanham, these dark gods spelled absolute doom for DC.
No one has caused such a cataclysmic event as Perpetua, considering that only she can completely destroy the multiverse she is responsible for creating. Perpetua is the answer to all of DC’s retcon problems, as well as DC’s biggest secret. When the Justice League fought against her, it wasn’t an even battle—they were fighting their creator. And there will be many more, even after Perpetua, as DC continues to add to its roster of powerful heroes never before seen in comics.
