Warning: contains spoilers The question: throughout the entire Watchtower #2!
DC just made it clear, in the coolest way possible, how serious they are about Justice League “Unlimited” renewal. The recently completed Absolute power made clear the need for the Justice League and heroes in general. The question: throughout the entire Watchtower #2, set aboard the Justice League's awe-inspiring new Watchtower, shows fans just how big the team is now – thanks to the return of an underrated character.
The question: throughout the entire Watchtower #2 was written by Alex Segura and drawn by Cian Tormey. One of the Challengers of the Unknown was attacked and left to die in the Watchtower. The Question, as the Watchtower's head of security, searches for any clues that could lead to the perpetrator. The Question's journey takes her to the Watchtower bar – which is tended by Nightshade. Renee tries to get answers from Nightshade, who isn't exactly forthcoming. After a tense conversation, the Question discovers that Batwoman, his ex-lover, may be behind the attack.
The Justice League is the cornerstone of the DC Universe
When there is no Justice League, bad things can happen
The Justice League is one of the pillars of the DC Universe, but for a brief period the team was on hiatus. As a result, Amanda Waller was able to implement plans that nearly wiped out every superpowered person on the planet, as documented in Absolute power. Using an army of Amazos, Waller stole powers and imprisoned anyone who stood in his way. Waller nearly completed his objective, but was unable to explain the dissension in the ranks. After Waller's defeat, the heroes realize that the Justice League is needed once again.
However, this time, the League would adopt a new approach, befitting the new All inclusive initiative. Taking a suggestion from Justice League Unlimited cartoon from the 2000s, each hero was now a potential member of the team. There's even a new Watchtower, on a scale never seen before, fit for this new and unprecedented era in Justice League history. The new incarnation of the Watchtower is packed with facilities such as zoos, botany labs, fitness rooms – and even bars. Every hero on Earth also has a room aboard the Watchtower.
The new era of the Justice League has opened the ranks to everyone, and so far, throughout All inclusivefans got an idea of the team's reach now.

The Question, who was never a member of the League, is the head of security. Tawky Tawny and Animal Man lead the biological research unit and the Challengers of the Unknown handle day-to-day operations. Each of these departments is vital to the smooth running of the Watchtower, but the recreational areas are equally important. These places also need staff, and that's what Nightshade is doing.
Who is Nightshade? DC's Shadow-Based Teleporter Explained
Nightshade's New Justice League Role Is Perfect for His Return Nightshade was the inspiration for Watchers Silk Spectrum.
Nightshade is an element of both the spy/espionage side of the DC Universe and its supernatural corner. Co-created by Steve Ditko for Charlton Comics in the mid-1960s, Nightshade's shadow-based powers give her the ability to teleport across the Land of Nightshades. Nightshade was a member of the Suicide Squad and the Shadowpact, but never ascended as high as other characters acquired from Charlton, such as Captain Atom or Blue Beetle. Instead, Nightshade was relegated to semi-obscurity, which greatly undervalues the character.
While mixing drinks may not be the best use of her considerable powers, it does give Nightshade a role, which could lead to missions with the rest of the Justice League.
However, now, Nightshade has a new purpose in the DC Universe: a bartender aboard the Watchtower. While mixing drinks may not be the best use of her considerable powers, it does give Nightshade a role, which could lead to missions with the rest of the Justice League. Nightshade's new work also illustrates how committed DC is to the Justice League new “Unlimited” era: they recruited all the heroes, turning into a League for the first time perhaps in history. However, instead of just increasing their numbers, the League is giving everyone something meaningful to do.
