The following is for the characters of DC Comics' Earth 2 series.

  • Decomposite Character: Initially, the majority of these characters were meant to be the versions of DC's Golden Age and Justice Society-related heroes and villains reintroduced for the New 52, due to the Golden Age heroes and their legacies being erased from the main Earth. Several years later beginning around DC Rebirth, the original versions of Alan Scott, Jay Garrick, and similar characters were confirmed to still exist explicitly making the cast Earth-2 into separate counterparts.

Wonders

     Flash (Jay Garrick) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rsz_1jaygarrickearth2_8583.png

A recent college graduate with no aim in life. The dying god Mercury happens to crash near him one night, and gives Jay his superspeed so Jay can avert a coming disaster even greater than the Apokolips War.

Initially an updating of the original Jay Garrick, Rebirth revealed that the original does exist, making this Jay a separate character entirely.


  • Appropriated Appellation: He didn't have any alias at first; however, when he saved a couple from Parademons and said he'd get everything fixed in a flash, they misheard it and thought he was giving them his name. When they appear on TV and tell their story about being saved by a hero who dubs himself "The Flash", Jay gladly adopts the codename.
  • Butt-Monkey
  • Clothing Damage: It happens, but since his costume is a part of his powers he can just will it to repair itself.
  • Decomposite Character: He was initially the Younger and Hipper version of the Jay Garrick on Earth-2; however, with DC Rebirth it's revealed that original version of character still exists on main Earth, and this version of him is a completely separate character.
  • Desperately Looking for a Purpose in Life: People outright tell him he has no talent or future — worst part is, according to his mother, he started to believe it himself. A dying god crashing a few miles from where he was changes this.
  • Dogged Nice Guy: With his version of Joan Williams. He's basically what would've happened if the original Jay never got superspeed in college, with a somewhat jerkier Joan as well.
  • Drowning My Sorrows: A mild version, after being unceremoniously dumped and stepped on by his college girlfriend Joan.
  • Female Gaze: On top of the detailed Sensual Spandex, the camera loves his well-formed hindquarters.
  • Good Feels Good: He's always making it clear how much he loves being a hero.
  • The Heart / Nice Guy: The kindest, most moral person in the team, and the one who holds it together, really.
  • How Do I Shot Web?: He has a problem with his... brakes.
  • I Have Your Mom: Jay's mother was taken hostage by villains more than once in order to coerce him.
  • Jumped at the Call: Jay wastes no time becoming a hero once he gets his powers.
  • Love Hurts: Dumped in his first appearance, by the woman who before the reboot was his wife.
  • Mercury's Wings: His helmet had stylized wings on the side.
  • "Metaphor" Is My Middle Name: He jokes during Convergence that "careful" and "lucky" are his middle names.
  • Mr. Fanservice: Being now portrayed as a handsome young man aside, see Female Gaze above. Nicola Scott herself has dubbed his butt the "shiny butt".
  • Ordinary College Student: Before getting his powers. Emphasis on the ordinary; he didn't stand out at all.
  • Super-Speed: His primary power, gifted by the god Mercury.
  • Vapor Wear: While his former version used Civvie Spandex, New 52 Jay gets full-fledged classic superhero tights.
  • Wide-Eyed Idealist: He's the one that's happiest about being a hero, and that right from the beginning talks about how the new heroes should take up from the deceased Wonders and fight to protect the world.
  • Younger and Hipper: Along with many of the other Golden Age JSA members. Jay is now in his early twenties.

     Green Lantern (Alan Scott) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/AlanScottEarth2_904.jpg

CEO of the Global Broadcasting Corporation. Chosen by the Green, the planet's sentient life force, to become the Earth's champion after a terrorist attack on the train he and his fiance were traveling on.


  • Adaptational Sexuality: The Pre-Flashpoint Alan Scott was straight, to the point of having two biological children (Jade and Obsidian) and marrying his enemy Molly Mayne/Harlequin. This version of Alan Scott is gay.
  • The Cape: The force that gave him his powers outright tells him that he's supposed to fill this role in place of the fallen Superman.
  • The Chosen One: The force chose him to bestow its power upon.
  • Composite Character:
    • His sexual orientation in the New 52 is explicitly taken from his now non-existent son Obsidian.
    • Being a chosen champion of the Green makes him a composite of Green Lantern and Swamp Thing.
  • Heartbroken Badass: After Sam's death, he doesn't take outliving his boyfriend well but still pushes on to be a hero.
  • I Work Alone: Refuses to join Jay and Kendra after their first team-up. He gets over it.
  • Imagination-Based Superpower: His powers include creating constructs limited only by his imagination like most Green Lanterns.
  • Logical Weakness: His power comes from the planet itself. Spaceflight strains the connection and runs the risk of his power running out.
  • Ret-Canon: His sexuality was eventually adapted to his mainstream counterpart on Earth Prime, revealing he was closeted and had straight relationships out of compulsory heterosexuality. Coming to terms with his son's helped him realize his own.
  • Retcon: Earth 2: Society inexplicably disregards his established backstory of being chosen as champion of the Green and his power ring being formed from his deceased boyfriend Sam Zhao's engagement ring, instead going with his ring being an Oan power ring that chose him to be the Green Lantern (disregarding that the previous two volumes gave no indication whatsoever that the Green Lantern Corps existed in this continuity).
  • Straight Gay: While gay in this continuity, he doesn't demonstrate any stereotypes and his sexual orientation is only clarified through his interactions with his boyfriend Sam Zhao.
  • Tragic Keepsake: When he is told that he needs an item to channel his power through, he chooses the ring that he proposed to his boyfriend Sam with.
  • Unrelated in the Adaptation: A counterpart to Todd Rice/Obsidian eventually turns up in Earth 2: World's End, but is clearly not Alan Scott's son due to this version of Alan Scott being too young to be the father of a young adult man in addition to his changed sexuality.
  • Younger and Hipper: Appears to be a man in his twenties.

     Hawkgirl (Kendra Munoz-Saunders) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/8a328270121d8a71fbb9851bbf7f3cf0_3725.jpg

Archaeologist and adventurer. It is still unclear how she received her wings, but it was during a job for the World Army, causing her to desert in resentment.


     Dr. Fate (Khalid Ben-Hassin) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/docfatee2_8415.jpg

An Egyptologist who one day found an artifact of great magical power: the Helmet of Nabu. Touching it allowed the dead sorcerer to enter his mind and teach him magic, but using it is dangerous for Khalid's sanity, as it allows Nabu more control over his body. Khalid creates the "Dr. Fate" identity in an attempt to keep Khalid's and the composite Khalid/Nabu identities distinct.


  • Early-Bird Cameo: Khalid first appears rambling in an alleyway, long before we learn he's Doctor Fate.
  • Helmets Are Hardly Heroic: Averted, naturally.
  • Power at a Price: The Helm of Nabu will slowly degrade his sanity so long as he uses it.
  • Race Lift: Originally having Caucasian hosts pre-New 52, his host here is Egyptian.
  • The Smart Guy: In terms of magic.
  • Talkative Loon: Using Nabu's magic occasionally causes this. It gets much worse when Superman's clone cracks the Helmet of Nabu.

     Mr. Terrific (Michael Holt) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mr_terrific_earth_2.png

A scientific genius who accidentally warps to Earth-2. He is immediately captured by Sloan and brainwashed, but he is rescued and deprogrammed by the Wonders and recruited to help resist the second Apokolips invasion. Tropes relating to Michael and his predecessors/other iterations can be found on the dedicated Mister Terrific page.


     Superman (Kal-El/Clark Kent) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kal_l_earth_2_002.jpg

  • Adaptation Name Change: A relatively minor example, but before the New 52, the Superman of Earth-2 was named Kal-L; now he matches the main DCU's Kal-El.
  • Heartbroken Badass: He married Lois Lane and didn't take it well when she was killed during the war of Apokolips.
  • Hope Spot: He is given two hints towards surviving the fight against the Parademons after all, only for both to be subverted. The villain Brutaal initially appears to be a brainwashed Superman, but ultimately turns out to be a clone that dies and crumbles to dust. The real Superman is eventually found to be alive in World's End and simply held prisoner as a source for creating clones of him, but he doesn't make it for long.

     Batman I (Bruce Wayne) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/batman_earth_2_new_52.jpg

  • Dating Catwoman: Like his Golden Age Earth-Two counterpart, he married Catwoman and had a daughter with her.
  • Happily Married: He and Catwoman married and had a daughter named Helena.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Dies in a Suicide Mission destroying a parademon horde tower from within.
  • You're Not My Father: He all but explicitly rejects his father Thomas Wayne after learning he had a shady past and survived the shooting while letting the public believe he was killed like his wife Martha in a misguided attempt to protect his son Bruce.

     Wonder Woman (Princess Diana of Amazonia) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wonder_woman_earth_2.png
Not to be confused with Wonder Woman's Golden Age iteration, whose world was later termed "Earth-Two" and whose associated tropes can be found here.
  • Action Mom: She had a daughter before she died.
  • Horrible Judge of Character: She fell for a man and had a daughter with him. That man? Steppenwolf.
  • Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Literally stabbed in the back by her former lover.
  • Killed Off for Real: A large unnatural blade through the chest cavity can take out even an Amazon permanently.
  • Last of Her Kind: Second-last, but since all the other Amazonians are gone, it still stands.
  • Mama Bear: Defended her daughter and tried to convince her to switch sides. It doesn't matter if the father is Steppenwolf, she still wants to help her daughter.

     Supergirl/Power Girl (Kara Zor-El/Karen Starr) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/supergirl_earth_2.jpg

     Robin/Huntress/Batman IV (Helena Wayne) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/helena_wayne_earth_2_009.jpg
For the 50 issue feature of the original Earth-Two Huntress see Wonder Woman (1942).

     Batman II (Thomas Wayne) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_vol_1_17_textless_877.jpg

A mysterious man wearing a black and red version of Batman's costume who begins making appearances in the ruins of Gotham City. Unlike the original Batman, however, he has no qualms with killing or using guns. He is actually Bruce Wayne's father, Thomas. While he was a respected surgeon and philanthropist by day, the drugrunners and mobsters he associated with in his youth eventually came for their due, leading to his and his wife's lethal "mugging" in Crime Alley. However, Thomas managed to survive the assassination attempt and decided to lay low. When he tried to come back into the adult Bruce's life, he was met with cold rejection. However, after Bruce's death, Thomas decides to take up his mantle to make up for his sins.


     Accountable (James Olsen) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/james_olsen_earth_2_002.png

     Val-Zod 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/val_zod.jpg

Another Kryptonian, who was secretly held beneath Arkham by the World Army—for his own protection, according to Sloan. Back on Krypton, he had been adopted by Jor-El and Lara and was saved from its destruction along with Superman, Supergirl, and an unnamed fourth Kryptonian. Batman II and Red Tornado find him and recruit him to help against the renewed Apokolips invasion in the present.


  • Childhood Friend Romance: With Kara.
  • Ironic Fear: He's agoraphobic. Given that he's Kryptonian, and would have the power of a god if he would only spend some time outside in the sun... A talk from Red Tornado helps him get over it.
  • Pacifist: Lies about knowing what he's capable of because he doesn't want to hurt anyone.
  • There Is Another: A secret third Kryptonian. His reveal also alludes to a fourth.

The World Army

     Commander Amar Kahn 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amarkahn_01.jpg

Commander of the World Army Intelligence Division.


     The Atom (Al Pratt) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/atom_huh.jpg

Member of the World Army who received his abilities during the final days of the Apokolips War.


     Mr. 8 (Terry Sloan) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/batman_and_mr_8_shotting_guns_on_earth_2_zero.jpg

One of the original eight wonders. During the Apokolips War, he caused the destruction of several nations that had fallen to Darkseid's Anti-Life Equation. For this, he is considered by the public to be one of the greatest war criminals in history. However, he is currently secretly allied with the World Army.


  • Adaptation Name Change: His Wonder alias is Mr. 8 instead of Mr. Terrific.
  • Adaptational Villainy: Compared to his pre-New 52 counterpart.
  • Anti-Villain: Wishes to make his world stronger, no matter what the cost.
    • As Michael Holt eventually realises, Terry never said Earth-2 is his world. By this point Terry had shifted into full-on villainy.
  • The Chessmaster: He uses his genius to manipulate everyone into helping advance his goals.
  • Evil Counterpart: To Michael Holt, the New-52 Mr. Terrific. In the old continuity, he was even the first Mr. Terrific.
  • Evil Red Head: He's red-haired and a villain.
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: He was the eighth Wonder back in the Ternion days. That's pretty much it.
  • Fallen Hero: Was once on par with Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman in terms of heroism. Then stuff happened...
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: After avoiding punishment for his crimes, he gets killed off in Earth 2: Society.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The firepits he created may have killed the potentially dangerous Anti-Life-infected humans, but they're still Apokoliptian firepits. When Brutaal renews the invasion, they start spawning Parademons by the millions.
  • Nuke 'em: His default response to pretty much everything.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: Willingly annihilated Rome, Rio de Janeiro, Pakistan and South Africa so the populations there infected with the Anti-Life Equation could not be used as weapons.

     Major Sonia Sato 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sonia_sato.png

     Sandman (Wesley Dodds) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sandman_earth_2_01.png

Leader of the Sandmen, a group that all share the same powers.


  • Decomposite Character: He is now only one of a squad of Sandmen—the leader, but still.
  • Flashy Teleportation: Exactly how the technique works hasn't been defined, but a silvery sand scatters with every teleport, and apparently the gas masks are required.
  • Gas Mask Mooks: Dodd's own face is shown frequently enough, but the same can't be said for his subordinate Sandmen.
  • Jerkass: When he takes Jay's mom hostage, he openly admits he's a bastard.
  • The Leader: Of the Sandmen.

     Red Arrow (Connor Hawke) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/red_arrow_earth_2.jpg

An expert archer in the employ of the World Army.


  • Adaptation Name Change: Red Arrow is usually one of the names used by Connor's adoptive brother Roy, not Connor.
  • Combat Pragmatist
  • Composite Character: Of Connor Hawke (pre-New 52 Green Arrow II) and Roy Harper (pre-New 52 Red Arrow/Arsenal). He operates solo like Connor and has his real name, but has a prosthetic arm and operates as Red Arrow like pre-New 52 Roy.
  • Dropped a Bridge on Him
  • Race Lift: While DC has historically had trouble portraying his ethnicity consistently, the pre-New 52 Connor was quarter-black, quarter-Korean, and half-white. He looks simply Caucasian here.

     Captain Steel (Hank Heywood Jr.) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/captain_steel.jpg

An operative of the World Army. His father replaced his skeleton with an experimental metal to counter a bone disease that would have killed him by his 18th birthday. However, this left him with reduced emotions.


  • Adaptation Name Change: Pre-New 52, the character was Commander Steel or Citizen Steel or just Steel. Captain Steel is a new one.
  • Disappeared Dad: His father committed suicide to prevent Apokolips from discovering his research.
  • Dropped a Bridge on Him: In Future's End, he was captured, and vivisected by Cadmus at some point.
  • Race Lift: He's Filipino and possibly half-Caucasian—he has an Anglo surname, but it isn't stated whether he's biracial or adopted.
  • The Stoic: Just before going on the Red Torpedo expedition into the Rio de Janeiro firepit, he makes it a point to say just how little he cares about anything.
    • Not So Stoic: The above sets up the payoff of Captain Steel quickly returning from the pit, barely alive, practically in hysterics over encountering a highly dangerous entity he calls the Red Lantern.

     Red Tornado (Lois Lane) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_society_red_tornado.jpg

An experimental gynoid with the power to manipulate wind the World Army has been attempting to perfect for years. However, its operating system only begins to run properly when General Sam Lane uploads the mind of his dead daughter, Lois.


Terrors

     Solomon Grundy 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_4_grundy.jpg

A vicious zombie and an avatar of "The Grey", a sentient force that exists within the Earth to wipe it clean for new life to evolve from scratch. His presence causes everything to die. Since the Grey cannot stop him once released and he cannot die, Green Lantern exiles him to the moon. However, his Villains' Month issue opens with him crashing back to Earth.

According to his Villains' Month issue, he was originally simply a butcher living in the South during the late 1800s. After years of hardship and his boss molesting his wife until she committed suicide, he snapped and killed everyone in the shop, then himself.


  • Complete Immortality: Every time he's ripped apart, he simply regenerates, and he will likely last forever, since he's a zombie that feeds on life force. Even disconnecting him from the Grey and dropping him on the moon doesn't seem to do any good besides getting him out of the way.
  • Evil Counterpart: To the Green Lantern, the avatar of the Green.
  • Madness Mantra: The Solomon Grundy nursery rhyme, which he originally sang to his baby; the poem turns into this trope during his Murder-Suicide.
  • Murder-Suicide: In his origin he kills all his coworkers, then himself.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: Green Lantern defeats him by putting him in a place where there is no life for him to corrupt. Namely, the moon.
  • The Undead
  • Walking Wasteland: He's a pretty powerful one. The wasteland continually spreads at a rate that can desertify the entire planet within three days.

     Steppenwolf 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/steppenwolf_earth_2_1.png

High Marshall of Darkseid's forces. After the Apokolips War is finally won and the Boom Tubes are sealed, he is stuck on Earth 2. After five years, he has decided he is content with his being marooned and rejects Darkseid to conquer the world for himself.


  • Abusive Parents: Brainwashed his daughter to be his loyal servant and so she wouldn't try to avenge her mother, Wonder Woman.
  • Big Bad Wannabe: As of Issue #16.
  • Four-Star Badass: Formerly Darkseid's general.
  • Informed Ability: He was able to manipulate and seduce Wonder Woman into being his lover and the mother of his daughter. Nothing shown of him suggests he's capable of this level of manipulation, unless he brainwashed her like he did their daughter. We never see any of their relationship in flashbacks or prequel material, not even so much as a kiss, thus the idea he managed to seduce her seems a tad farfetched.
  • Promoted to Love Interest: In a sense, he manipulated Wonder Woman and the two were lovers and had a child prior him to killing her. They do not have any sort of relationship like this in any other media.
  • Related in the Adaptation: Fury's father, as opposed to Steve Trevor.
  • The Starscream: Attempted to overthrow Darkseid.

     Brutaal (Clone Superman) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brutaal_dc_rebirth_cinema.jpg

One of Steppenwolf's three Hunger Dogs.


  • Beware the Superman: Literally. He uses his powers solely to help the forces of Apokolips subjugate the Earth.
  • Big Bad: He is the central antagonist for the Dark Age arc and the Kryptonian arc.
  • The Dragon: He's the main subordinate of Steppenwolf.
  • The Dreaded: Everyone fears him.
  • Evil Knockoff: As revealed in Issue #26, he is not the real Superman but a mere clone.
  • Mythology Gag: As he begins to crumble and die, the chain holding up his cape and "S" shield breaks and causes the shield to swing around and turn backward. While he's never named as such, his appearance and quickly deteriorating grammar ("Me...am...") in this scene make him a dead ringer for Bizarro.
  • Red and Black and Evil All Over: His costume is red and black.
  • Super-Persistent Missile: Unlike Superman, his Eye Beams can change angle like Darkseid's Omega Beams. Superman's clone has been enhanced with a portion of the Omega Force, Darkseid's power source.

     Fury 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_fury.jpg

Daughter of Steppenwolf and Earth-2's Wonder Woman.

Tropes relating to her original Earth-Two iteration can be found here.


     The Hunger Dogs 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hunger_dogs.png

Brutal, Beguiler and Bedlam.

     Kanto 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kanto_prime_earth_0001.png

Assassin of Apokolips. Like Steppenwolf, trapped on Earth 2. Unlike Steppenwolf, still loyal to Darkseid.


    Four Furies of Apokolips 

Four female warriors from worlds subjugated by Darkseid's legions, who show up during the events of World's End.


  • Death by Childbirth: Death ultimately dies when giving birth to the offspring she is pregnant with.
  • Defeat by Modesty: In a variant, Famine's defeat comes from Jay stripping off her armor so she can be made vulnerable to Dr. Fate's magic.
  • Enfant Terrible: Tamaranean K'li becomes the violent War when she is only a preteen.
  • Fat Bastard: The Fury Famine, a recruit from Warworld who happens to be an extremely corpulent alien woman with a fondness for eating other sentient beings.
  • Fetus Terrible: Death is a Martian woman pregnant with what turns out to be a grotesque entity of death.
  • Legacy Character: Helena Wayne becomes the new Famine after her predecessor is taken out.
  • Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Their codenames and the fact that they fight on behalf of a planet named a homonym for "Apocalypse" make it obvious they're based on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
  • Last of His Kind: Each of them are the last of their species, with War, Pestilence and Death respectively being the last surviving Tamaranean, Czarnian and Martian in this continuity.

Others

     Mister Miracle (Scot Free) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mister_miracle_earth_2.jpg

A New God and an expert escape artist.


     Big Barda 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/big_barda_earth_2.jpg

     Aquawoman (Queen Marella) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aquawoman_earth_2_20.jpg

The queen of Atlantis. The World Army holds her in stasis for reasons unknown, but Batman II decides to free her to gain an ally against Apokolips.


  • Making a Splash:
    • As she tells her former captors, most of the human body is water — and she can remove all of it with a thought.
    • She can give you a stroke by moving cerebro-spinal fluid into the ventricles of your brain.
  • Mythology Gag: The name Aquawoman is one that Mera, Aquaman's wife/girlfriend, is called by civilians in the mainstream universe. She doesn't like it, and neither does Marella.
  • Royals Who Actually Do Something: Like Aquaman, is the ruler of Atlantis who kicks ass.

     The Graysons 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_worlds_end_01.jpg

A civilian family, living in the World's Army refugee camp. Dick Grayson is a journalist, while his wife Barbara is a cop. Together, they have a son, Johnny.


  • Action Girl: Barbara, as she is a Fair Cop.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Dick has one of these moments in the monthly issue.
  • Decomposite Character:
    • Dick Grayson never became Robin in this continuity, with Helena Wayne being the first Robin before she took up the mantle of the Huntress. By the end of the series, Dick's son John becomes the next Robin after Helena continues her father and grandfather's legacy as the fourth Batman.
    • Barbara doesn't survive in the end, with Earth 2: Society having her widower Dick taking up the identity of Oracle after allowing Helena Wayne to succeed him as Batman.
  • The Everyman: According to lead writer Daniel H. Wilson, Dick will provide an ordinary person's perspective of the upcoming war.
  • Happily Married: Dick and Barbara are married and have a kid.
  • Legacy Character: By the end of Convergence and the start of Earth 2: Society, Dick becomes the third Batman. His son John subsequently becomes the second Robin as the sidekick to Helena Wayne's Batman by the end of Society.
  • Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy: Dick is more a mild-mannered Nice Guy, while Barbara, as a cop, is more confrontational
  • Papa Wolf/Mama Bear: Dick and Barbara are rather protective of their son, in their own ways.
  • Tempting Fate: Dick often talks about how the family needs to stick together. Sadly, they don't.
  • Took a Level in Badass: After losing his wife and spending a few days with Ted Grant, Dick somehow manages to become a very competent fighter. He's also shown piloting a fighter ship alongside Thomas Wayne, with no explanation as to how he learned to fly a ship, or how he met Thomas.

     Lee Travis 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lee_travis_earth_2_001.jpg

  • Race Lift: Was Caucasian, now African-American.
