edit

Unnamed version

edit

Originally posing as a Blue Beetle from the future, the Black Beetle appears to Booster Gold in a time sphere. He offers a chance to go back in time and save the second Blue Beetle, Ted Kord, from death at Maxwell Lord's hands, despite Rip Hunter's claims that Ted's death was a point of unalterable "solidified" time. Booster agrees to go with Black Beetle who has also recruited the first Blue Beetle, Dan Garrett, and the current Blue Beetle, Jaime Reyes, for the mission. The group is successful in saving Ted. After their return to the present, however, they learn that the timeline has been altered, and that Max's OMACs are policing the whole world.[15] When Booster and Ted, gathering some of their old Justice League International teammates, attempt to fix the timeline, they are attacked by Black Beetle who reveals his affiliation with the Time Stealers, a group consisting of Despero, Per Degaton, the Ultra-Humanite, and Jonar Carter (the latter under the control of Mister Mind). As the battle with Black Beetle rages, Ted realizes that the only way to fix things is to return to the past and allow himself to be murdered. Black Beetle attempts to stop Ted, revealing that he is "Jaime Reyes' greatest enemy", and that Jaime took away someone close to him. He also reveals that he followed the Time Stealers' plan to prevent Ted's death so that Jaime would never have been the Blue Beetle and "she" would never have died. Both he and Ted enter the Time Stealers' time sphere, which then activates.[16] In the next issue, Ted is revealed to have restored the timeline. The whereabouts of Black Beetle, however, are unknown.[17]

The "Origins and Omens" backup story in Booster Gold #17 hinted that Black Beetle would return and that his true identity would be revealed.

The Black Beetle returns in the present day, attacking Booster Gold and the new Batman in the Batcave. After a brief altercation, Black Beetle escapes into the past, changing events in a way that causes Dick Grayson to die as Robin.[18] Booster follows Black Beetle into the past, finding that he has allied himself with Grant Wilson, attempting to change the outcome of his disastrous battle with the Teen Titans.[19] He is also shown working with an unknown person who desires the destruction of the Justice League. He briefly appears in the present, revealing himself to "Jaime Reyes" and absconding with the body of a gynoid the hero had just defeated.[20] Black Beetle is then shown in a new future he created by killing the Teen Titans where Raven's father Trigon is able to take over the world in the absence of both the Titans and Batman.[20] It is then shown that his true purpose for creating this future is to use the distraction of Booster, Rip Hunter, and the resistance attacking to steal an altered Scarab from Trigon's trophy room. He claims the Scarab is more powerful than his own and bonds it to himself as the Red Beetle (or Scarlet Scarab) in addition to his current tech.[21] Rip manages to track Black Beetle to his base, using one of his devices to overload the armor with chronal energy, seemingly destroying Black Beetle.[22] He is also shown in the present in El Paso, attempting to take Jamie's Blue Beetle scarab.[21] Jaime manages to stop him by blasting him with tachyon particles, paralyzing him. But due to wounds Milagro Reyes suffered at Black Beetle's hands, Jaime is forced to let the villain escape.[22]

In the Time Masters: Vanishing Point limited series, the Time Stealers learn that the Vanishing Point fortress was destroyed.[23] Black Beetle takes his allies to the destroyed Vanishing Point and sees that Rip has locked the Linear Men in a cell because they never agreed about how to handle time. The four villains find the cell and tear it open, finding Matthew Ryder and Liri Lee.[24] Black Beetle asks the Linear Men to help bring Waverider back to life. But Supernova prevents Black Beetle from creating dystopia and he sends the Time Stealers back to the present, although Black Beetle escapes and the Linear Men choose to go with him since he freed them from imprisonment.[25] After they find Waverider's corpse in the desolate wasteland of Earth's future, Black Beetle double-crosses the Linear Men and tries to use Waverider's power to become invulnerable.[26] Black Beetle attempts to fuse Waverider's corpse power but is thwarted by Supernova, which allows Liri to fuse with Waverider's corpse to become Linear Woman. Black Beetle attacks Supernova but when Superman and the rest of the Time Masters arrive, he escapes, telling them they will see him again another time.[27]

Hector

edit

In the final issue of Blue Beetle (vol. 2), Nadia, one of Jaime's tech supports, is killed by the Khaji Da Revolutionary Army, a group of Reach Infiltrators inspired by Jaime's Scarab. Hector, Nadia's brother, angrily blames Jaime and leaves the country. It is revealed that Hector has bonded with Reach technology taken from the invaders, potentially granting him the same powers as Jaime, and that he has taken the alias "Joshua" based on "Djo Zha" (the previous owner of his scarab), and a member of the KDRA. Joshua is the name used by the Black Beetle in his earliest appearances.[28] The use of Hector is intended to cause speculation regarding the Black Beetle character, as future storylines evolve regarding the character.[29] When Black Beetle finally confronts Jamie, he claims that he is indeed Hector, blaming Jamie for Nadia's death, but instantly retracts this statement, instead stating that he in fact killed Hector and stole his technology.[21] In the following issue, he claims to be Jaime's future self, driven mad after being attacked by a brain-damaged Milagro.[22]

Vera Black

edit
Further reading

Vera Black a.k.a. Sister Superior is a British psionic cyborg in the DC Universe.

The character, created by Joe Kelly and Doug Mahnke, first appeared in JLA #100 (August 2004).[37] The storyline set up the limited series Justice League Elite which consisted of 12 issues published between 2004 and 2005.

Within the context of the stories, Vera Black is the sister of Manchester Black. As children, their parents would often fight and Manchester would take her out to play to avoid them. As his idea of "play" became killing sprees, Vera's perspective became twisted. When her brother dies after attempting to destroy Superman, she has her damaged arms replaced with malleable cybernetic prostheses, initially contemplating revenge on Superman before she decides to be better than her brother.

Her new abilities result in her leading the remnants of the Elite and tacitly working with the Justice League. This leads to the League, encouraged by the Flash, asking her to lead a new team with the intention that she will handle black ops missions that the League cannot due to what they represent to the public, primarily involving hunting down and eliminating metahuman threats before they go public. Starting with Coldcast and Menagerie, she adds Flash, Manitou Raven, Major Disaster, Green Arrow and Kasumi to the team. She also enlists Naif al-Sheikh to keep the team in check and serve as a liaison to the governments of the world.

Equipment of Vera Black

edit

Vera's cybernetic arms can transform into an almost unlimited variety of melee, projectile and beam weapons. They also incorporate camouflage technology relying on optics, as well as altering sense perception in others.

Blackbriar Thorn

edit

Blackbriar Thorn was a High Priest of the ancient Druids of Cymru. When his entire sect is massacred by attacking Roman forces, Thorn flees to the surrounding forest. Attempting to escape capture, he transforms himself into solid wood, hiding amongst the trees. For Thorn's dismay, the agony of his dying comrades creates a geological upheaval which buries his newly arboreal form underground.

Millennia later, Blackbriar Thorn's body is unearthed by an archaeologist and subsequently displayed at the Gotham City Museum of History. When moonlight strikes the statue on the night of its unveiling, Thorn is revived and begins to wreak havoc on the Museum and its patrons, which includes the alter egos of Superman and Etrigan the Demon. The heroic pair's actions drive Thorn to retreat into the city, where he later attempts to procure a new body—-that of Superman. Together, Etrigan and Superman defeat Thorn, rendering him incorporeal.[40]

Blackbriar Thorn appears, seemingly in human form, during the Crisis on Infinite Earths. He, Etrigan, and other assembled mystics lend their combined energies-—channeled through Doctor Occult and Green Lantern Alan Scott—-to successfully defeat the Anti-Monitor's Shadow Demons, which had been ravaging the Earth.[41]

Disembodied once more and said to have lingered in Gotham Park since his prior defeat, Thorn is channeled by a stage psychic at the behest of John Constantine to provide information about a pending calamity in The Green.[42]

Blackbriar Thorn next appears (again, with a human appearance) as an agent of the demon Neron in a demonic realm called The Abyss. Holding captive the soul of Mollie Scott as bait, Thorn attempts to ensnare her husband, Alan Scott, but is surprised to find Alan no longer vulnerable to wood.[43]

As part of Johnny Sorrow's version of the Injustice Society, a more woody-looking Thorn and his teammates are defeated by Wildcat as they invade the JSA's Headquarters.[44][45] Thorn's defeat left his body splintered into pieces, one shard of which is kept on display in JSA Headquarters. Thorn lies dormant until the Injustice Society's next attack. Using a crossbow, Injustice Society comrade Tigress shoots the splintered sliver of Blackbriar Thorn into Alan Scott's chest. Apparently once more susceptible to wood, Scott is gravely wounded as Thorn regenerates from the embedded projectile and proceeds to inflict more damage.[46] Thorn is ultimately defeated in this siege on the JSA by Stargirl.[47]

Blackbriar Thorn appeared in Day of Vengeance battling the Spectre, who, influenced by Eclipso, attempts to kill all magic wielders in the DC Universe. The combatants appear in gigantic form.[48] Thorn loses the battle, but delays his next regeneration to lend his powers, along with many other mystics, in a combined effort to defeat the Spectre.[49]

Blackbriar Thorn is among the villains in the ambush of the JSA led by Tapeworm.[50]

In The New 52 reboot of DC's continuity, Blackbriar Thorn is re-established as one of two powerful magical entities used by Nick Necro to combat the Justice League Dark. He tries to destroy Zatanna in Peru by controlling an entire forest with his magic. He is then possessed by Deadman and neutralized.

During the Forever Evil storyline Forever Evil: Blight, Blackbriar Thorn is among the magic users in the possession of Felix Faust and Nick Necro. Faust and Necro plan to use the magic users as part of a weapon to defeat the creature that destroyed the Crime Syndicate's Earth.[51]

Thorn appears in the "DC Rebirth" relaunch as one of the villains refusing to be hired by Henry Bendix to kill Midnighter and Apollo.[52]

Powers and abilities of Blackbriar Thorn

edit

Blackbriar Thorn has exhibited a plethora of abilities, including manipulation of the weather, extensive control over vegetation—either living or dead, the ability to regenerate from even a sliver of his physical form, and the creation of illusions. Thorn can draw strength and abilities though physical contact with the Earth itself. Inside buildings, he still retains the ability to control surrounding plant life, animating it to his will and frequently increasing its volume and strength. Thorn's organic manipulation of his own woody form, including the projection of tendrils and vines, appears to be uninhibited when separated from terra firma as well.[45]

edit
Further reading

In the alternate timeline created by the events of Flashpoint, Blackout is recruited by Cyborg to help end the Amazon-Atlantean war, which has devastated Europe and killed millions of people.

Another new recruit, the Outsider, revealed during a meeting with Batman that he had been hunting Blackout so he could use his abilities to power India. This manhunt resulted in the loss of Blackout's girlfriend and his departure from school. Blackout has since voiced his reluctance to be part of the same team with his worst enemy.

Blackout in other media

edit

Farooq Gibran / Blackout appears in The Flash episode "Power Outage", portrayed by Michael Reventar.[60] This version acquired his abilities after being electrocuted amidst the explosion of S.T.A.R. Labs' particle accelerator and subsequently sought revenge against the head of S.T.A.R. Labs, Harrison Wells. In pursuit of this goal, Farooq is confronted by the Flash, who eventually overcharges and kills him.

Blackrock

edit

Blackrock is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Blackrock is a recurring enemy of Superman first appearing in Action Comics #458 (April 1976).[61]

Blackrock was the creation of Dr. Peter Silverstone in an attempt to increase ratings for the United Broadcasting television network.[62] Silverstone hypnotized UB President Sam Tanner and later Tanner's nephew, Les Vegas, to fill the role. A third Blackrock (an energy construct) was created by Tanner's command not much later.

Eventually Silverstone assumed the mantle of Blackrock himself, using a powerful stone that could metabolize electromagnetic energy into energy to achieve flight, energy blasts and superhuman strength, and fought Superman several times. This rock, while a technological artifact, has the appearance of a polished gem that is as black as coal and was dubbed Blackrock.

The Post-Crisis version was stated (in Batman/Superman adventures) to be a symbiotic alien, but with similar abilities.

Silverstone is the only Pre-Crisis user of the stone that has been mentioned in post-Crisis continuity. Overuse of the Blackrock's powers blinded Silverstone and left him insane. He was found sitting muttering to himself and watching constant television shows in an apartment owned by an ex-convict named Samuel Benjamin, who beat Silverstone to death with the Blackrock and took it for himself. Despite its power, his inexperience with the Blackrock led to his defeat, after which Superman threw the stone into the Sun.[63]

A short time later, Alexander Luthor Jr., disguised as Lex Luthor, dispatched Bizarro to retrieve the Blackrock from the Sun[64] before passing it on to a South American woman named Lucia,[65] a drug smuggler and revolutionary who had been jailed by Superman before. Her intense feelings of hatred towards the Man of Steel matched those of the Blackrock and she proved particularly adept in using it. However, her skills were not enough to defeat Superman and the Blackrock withdrew into itself.[66]

It was eventually shown that the Blackrock had been kept by Superman, who locked it away in his Fortress of Solitude. The Blackrock escaped and bonded with Plastic Man. Shortly after, the Blackrock was removed from Plastic Man and found its way into the hands of Batman, who shortly afterwards decided he needed its powers to help him stop a currently-rampaging Superman (Superman had fallen under the influence of Despero as he attempted to turn Earth's alien superheroes against humans). Although it remained on Batman after Superman threw off Despero's influence, Superman was able to force it to leave Batman by threatening to kill him, informing the Blackrock that he knew Batman would rather die than live like this.

In September 2011, The New 52 rebooted DC's continuity. In this new timeline, Blackrock is Bradley Glenn, an ex-con who was hired to star in a reality television show called Badass Nation about the life of a supervillain.[67] The TV company provided him with powered armor and a fictional backstory about finding it in a crashed spacecraft. They intended to film him tearing up a bridge that was scheduled for demolition, but the crew neglected to ensure that the bridge had been closed to traffic and the Pre-Flashpoint Superman had to intervene.[68]

The post-Crisis wielders of the Blackrock seem to have developed differing powers based on their personalities. All seem to have possessed superhuman strength and endurance, flight and energy projection abilities. The Blackrock also has the ability to absorb ambient energy to empower its wielder. Dr. Silverstone seemed most adept at using its ability to process information from TV and radio signals. Samuel Benjamin was particularly skilled at using it to boost his own physical strength and toughness. Lucia's abilities seemed to be an amalgamation of her predecessors', but she seemed to prefer using its energy projection abilities and discovered a way to use it to drain Superman's power.

Blackrock in other media

Blackrock appears as a character summon in Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure.[2]

Blackwing

edit

Blackwing (Charles "Charlie" Bullock) is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. He was created by Paul Levitz, Joe Staton and Joey Cavalieri.

The character was chronologically introduced in Adventure Comics #464 (April 1979), but was unnamed in that comic. He was, however, named in his next appearance in Wonder Woman #281 (April 1981) and later, became Blackwing in Wonder Woman #297 (August 1982). Also, worth to note, the original story in Adventure Comics was intended for All Star Comics #75. Charlie was drawn as a teen in that story, but his next appearance (only three years later) depicts him as a young adult who graduated from law school.

In his mid-teens, Charles Bullock was searching for a direction in life. The teenager found it after he helped fight off street punks alongside Wildcat and was invited to join him at his gym. Charlie attended law school and later became a junior partner and top-notch researcher to the law firm called Cranston, Grayson and Wayne. When a criminal named Karnage broke into the office looking for his boss Arthur Cranston, this, and another event, led him to become the costumed hero Blackwing. Although his first outing as a crime fighter proved unsuccessful when he was captured by the costumed villain Boa's gang, Blackwing managed to contribute in freeing the Huntress from Boa's giant snake and recorded some evidence that was used to put the mastermind and his men away.

Since then, Blackwing has never appeared again in any other published story.

Block

edit

Block is a young Maori woman living in Melbourne, Australia, the woman dubbed the Human Block was once inexplicably struck by lightning and survived the incident. Unknown to her, this similar event had happened to many other individuals throughout time and was in fact the Speed Force imbuing her with speed-related abilities. In her then-present time—1957—Block acted as a side show attraction in a carnival, the prize of $1,000 going to whoever could move her, which was failed by many, as she had manipulated her body density. One drunken man staggered onto the stage to accept her challenge, making her move by insulting her Maori heritage rather than physically moving her. Angered, she immediately struck out at him and instigated a small brawl, tearing through the crowd before someone hastily drew their firearm on her and shot, only to find that not even bullets affected her. Before the now-turned mob could attack her, Zoom, accompanied by his newly recruited acolytes the Folded Man and Magali, appeared and teleported her outside of the carnival grounds. Being offered the chance to embrace her abilities and live as a godlike being after mastering them, she did not hesitate to join Zoom and his quest to kill the "evil" Flash. Along with the other Acolytes, she would train for what would be an unknown amount of time to kill the Flash, facing off with Zoom in his place. It is unknown how long this training took place, as they stated that, over the course of centuries, this team trained to take on the Flash and when they reached older age, Magali would revert them back to their original ages when joining. Unknown to Block, Zoom is actually the one to have orchestrated her joining him to begin with, appearing to the drunk man who challenged her, while convincing him that the way to make her move was to attack her heritage, as he had been keeping close watch on her for some time.[volume & issue needed]

Powers and abilities of Block

edit

Being imbued with the Speed Force, Block has the unique ability to slow down her atoms. In doing this, they become denser than steel and grant her invulnerability, super-strength and immobility. She can possibly slow down other speedsters, if not other people as well, through physical touch, as she stopped the Top's ability to spin and was able to hold Zoom in place in a headlock. After training centuries with Zoom, she is a deadly fighter. Recently, she was able to stop the molecules around herself to make the air unbreakable.

Sy Borgman is a retired scooter-bound U.S. agent with some cybernetic enhancements and an ally of Harley Quinn that first appeared in Harley Quinn (vol. 2) #2 (March 2014) as part of The New 52.

Sy Borgman is a retired U.S. agent formerly called Syborg who was rendered scooter-bound and got cybernetic enhancements after stopping a terrorist plot. When Harley Quinn heads to her nursing home appointment, Sy Borgman recognizes her causing Harley to close the door behind her. He explains his history to her and states how he must use a scooter due to the weight of the cybernetics affecting his aged body. Sy wants to help Harley by targeting the gang that was responsible for his current cybernetic state.[90] While going over the files, Harley and Sy start with Igor Lenivetskin, who is in a coma. They were able to sever the tubes going into him and set his body to explode. The second target is Ivana Brekemoff. Sy states Ivana will be more difficult than Igor. After entering the mansion by force, Harley and Sy confront Ivana who starts using an RPG on them, which blows up the mansion.[91] Emerging unscathed, Harley and Sy flee from the police helicopter while throwing Ivana to her death. Their third target is Alexei "the Bear" Medvedenko, who currently works as a security guard at the Prospect Park Zoo. When they arrive, they find that Alexei had been torn apart by the zoo animals he released upon hearing that they were coming for him. The other people that Alexei called were also on the files and consist of Kosta Armanoleg, Borya Tatierski, Yuri Beyznatofin, and Zena Bendemova. Harley and Sy send explosive bagels their way, where Kosta, Yuri, and three of Kosta's henchwomen were caught in the explosions. Harley brings a metal pipe down on Borya's head, leaving Zena as the remaining target. While it was mentioned that Zena was an ex-lover of Sy, she is caught by surprise when Sy sends her scooter into Zena enough to send her flying into the horns of a rhinoceros. Then it comes to the final target that Sy foreshadowed, where he and Harley head to Coney Island and break into the bedroom of a man named Chuck. After a monologue by Sy about the car that Chuck sold him, Harley kicks Chuck out the window where he falls into the streets below. While Sy wanted to finish off Chuck, he relents.[92]

When Harley Quinn is invited to the Skate Club by Summer Daze, she brings Sy Borgman along to accompany her.[93] Harley Quinn learns that this roller derby has no rules, as Sy Borgman places a bet on Harley. When Sy gives Harley an explosive toothpaste to use on her opponent Maria Monsterella, it kills her, causing the match to be disqualified. Sy still managed to win his bets and allows Harley to pay for the meal that follows. Harley later packs Sy's wheelchair into his car and sees him off.[94]

Breathtaker

edit

Breathtaker is a name of two supervillains appearing in DC Universe.

Breathtaker I

edit

The first is an unnamed assassin and the leader of the Assassination Bureau. He first appeared in Firestorm (vol. 2) #29 (November 1984), and was created by Joey Cavalieri and Rafael Kayanan.

Humiliated and tormented by his peers throughout his adolescence for being an albino dwarf, the young man constructed a powerful exoskeleton, assumed the hood and the identity of Breathtaker. He formed Assassination Bureau, supplying super-powered assassins to anyone with the right price.

The Breathtaker first comes to public attention when the criminal group 2000 Committee hires him and his organization to capture Firestorm. He tests Firestorm with his several lesser agents before confronting him with the Bureau's two chief, Incognito and Mindboggler. When Firestorm defeats those two as well, the Breathtaker finally lures him to his headquarters and attempts to kill him. Instead, Firestorm destroys the complex, putting an end to the Breathtaker's career.[102]

Breathtaker II

edit

The second Breathtaker is an unnamed female assassin, first appearing in Titans #21 (November 2000), created by Jay Faerber and Paul Pelletier.

Born and raised in USA, Breathtaker obtained aerokinesis abilities in an unspecified way, apparently from her birth. Liking the powers, she became an international assassin. She is specialized in murdering people by sucking away the air from their lungs, making it look like a natural death. She later contacted other people with similar abilities to form a team named Hangmen, consisting of super-strong Stranglehold from Puerto Rico, the mind-controller Provoke from Australia, a young electricity-manipulator Shock Trauma from Japan, and the cyborg Killshot from Russia.

Their first assignment comes from the government of Qurac to eliminate the terrorist Cheshire who tried to nuke the entire place. Cheshire escaped from them, but Breathtaker found an easy way to get at her: she and her team target her daughter Lian Harper, to lure her out. Despite their attempts, Titans discover their plan and defeat them.[103]

She and her team later have encounters with Nightwing and his team, sometimes allying with more seasoned and proficient assassins like Deathstroke. The team later makes an alliance with Alexander Luthor Jr. and his Secret Society of Super Villains. When the team assaults Metropolis, Breathtaker and her teammates use it as a cover to loot the city. Seeking an opportunity, they double cross Luthor and Breathtaker pays Doctor Psycho to fake their own death.[104]

After her team laid low for a while, they come in contact by Libra, who was reforming Luthor's Society and offers them a prize. Although accepting, she is not interested in money and only accepted his offer because she wants to kill every Titan as a revenge. Despite this, she and her team are later killed by Crispus Allen (the Spectre).[105]
