When Prometheus hacked Batman’s computer he discovers Batman’s contingency plan to take out the members of the Justice League should they go rogue.
Prometheus uses that knowledge to do just that.
The one-shot Prometheus New Years' Evil #1 special delves into Prometheus’s origin-or does it?
In a rather convoluted story that examines the line between good and evil readers are witnesses to one of the most unusual origin setups in comic book history.
It seems that his parents were hippies, who had the talent to rob, steal, kill and specialize in mayhem.
Although his parents were degenerates he still loved them and as most children do he followed in his parents’ footsteps.
His parents are finally surrounded and killed by the police.
Devastated the young Prometheus used his parents’ ill-gotten gains and through the clever manipulation of gang bosses, a new identity, a hunger for knowledge and martial and spiritual training at secret hidden monetary in Tibet hones his body and mind.
While there he discovered the secret of the monastery: a long hidden spaceship in its lower depths.
The surviving monks bestowed upon him the Cosmic Key-the key to the void.
He used the power to kill his young sidekick and took his place to exact his revenge on the Justice League of America.
Quite a story and quite a character.
It’s too bad DC Comics hasn’t capitalized on his uniqueness. It’s understandable since the state of DC Comics that has been devastated by the Woke Generation and a boatload of bad editorial decisions that has left the company a mere shadow of its former self despite stating otherwise.
News has come down that DC will be severely limiting it roster of titles, revamping its characters and basically obliterating its legacy and forming a new universe. Count me out.
Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) “Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.”
