| Earth-Two (1961–1985\2005–2011) | Earth-2 The New 52 (2011–present) | Notes | New Earth / Prime Earth counterpart |
| Kal-L/Clark Kent | Kal-El/Clark Kent Val-Zod | Superman was born on the planet Krypton, and arrived on Earth as a baby near the start of Earth's First World War. As Clark Kent, he was a reporter for the Daily Star, would become the editor-in-chief and marrying its star reporter Lois Lane. Although he was erased from existence by the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths and All-Star Squadron #60, he reappeared in Infinite Crisis and was killed by hero-turned-villain Superboy-Prime in Infinite Crisis #7. He was later resurrected as a Black Lantern, along with his wife Lois. Following 52, another version of the character appeared, who went missing due to unknown reasons for several years, leading his cousin Power Girl to search for him. With Lois Lane also missing, little is known of their adventures. In the New 52, Kal-El is far younger than the original Earth-Two version and only a little older than the mainstream Superman. His aged foster parents both survive to the present unlike that of the current mainstream Superman. He was also married to Lois Lane but she was killed. Superman was seemingly killed alongside Batman and Wonder Woman while fighting off an invasion from the planet Apokolips led by Steppenwolf. A supposedly resurrected Superman later appeared, having allied himself with Darkseid's forces. He is defeated by the remaining heroes of this world. While he was dying, it was revealed he was not the actual Superman but a Bizarro-like creation. In Earth 2: World's End, Superman himself was preserved and somehow revived by DeSaad, who was using him as genetic source for Kryptonian clones for five years. He was eventually found and rescued by the new Wonders, who took him to safety. The extraction of DNA from his body after so many years corrupted him, leaving him powerless. He later decided to sacrifice himself once again, placing an end to the Parademon factories, saving untold millions across the planet. He was finally buried by his cousin and successor and the symbol from his uniform would from then on be worn by Kara in remembrance. Val-Zod, is a Kryptonian, a pacifist refusing to openly fight against the forces of Darkseid occupying his Earth. Becoming the last of his House after his parents' execution by Krypton's court, Val quickly made friends with fellow orphan Kara Zor-El. Moments before Krypton's destruction, he, Kara, his foster brother and another child managed to escape and survive their planet's destruction. Through his trip, Val was educated by his parents' knowledge recorded on his capsule, teaching him that violence was the stupidest way to overcome issues. Falling on Earth, he was found by Terry Sloan who offered him asylum to "protect" him from the outside world, becoming a recluse. He was eventually found by the new Wonders. Suffering a panic attack after being freed, Lois tried to teach Val how to use his powers by finally going outdoors and after being enlightened by Dr. Fate, he decided to rise up and be Superman. He was also hiding beneath his hoodie, a uniform with the symbol of the House of El. | Superman |
| Bruce Wayne | Bruce Wayne Thomas Wayne Dick Grayson (see Helena Wayne*) | Bruce Wayne was raised by his paternal uncle, Philip, following the murder of his parents. Along with his close friend Superman (Kal-L), Batman participated in the Justice Society and the war-time All-Star Squadron. Eventually, he retired and became the police commissioner of Gotham City. Wayne married Selina Kyle (Catwoman), and had a daughter named Helena Wayne, who became a costumed adventurer known as the Huntress. In 1979, he died battling the escaped-convict Bill Jensen (Adventure Comics #462), who had been granted powerful magical abilities by Fredric Vaux (Adventure Comics #463) as part of a failed plot to remove all superheroes, and memory of them, from the world. Although this Batman was retconned out of existence by the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths and All-Star Squadron #60. After the death of Bruce Wayne, Richard Grayson would assume the identity of Batman in one known occasion against the Joker. On many occasions Grayson performed as the senior partner of the new "Dynamic Duo" which consisted of himself and Helena Wayne in her role as the Huntress. Following 52, after the Multiverse was brought back, a slightly version of Earth-Two Batman was introduced, a father to Helena Wayne and mentor to Richard Grayson, who also helped form the Justice Society of America. He was eventually slain by the Joker. In the New 52, Batman is still married to Catwoman, and they have a daughter together, Helena Wayne, who became his sidekick, Robin. At some point, his wife, Selina was killed in action. Batman sacrifices himself alongside Superman and Wonder Woman against the invasion forces of Apokolips. His father, Thomas Wayne, who is revealed as being still alive, has succeeded his late son as the new Batman, using the drug Miraclo (and later Venom) to give him more strength. It has been revealed, that Bruce discovered that Thomas was alive and after a heated confrontation wherein Bruce learned the whole truth about his father's sordid past, he disassociates himself with Thomas. When Earth was threatened by Steppenwolf, Thomas traveled to the World Army's Arkham Command Center to free certain prisoners from the facility, releasing Aquawoman and James Olsen from their stasis cells to join his resistance. He also discovered the Joker among the prisoners and killed him. Thomas would eventually be united with his granddaughter Helena, who was now going under the identity of the Huntress. In Convergence #3, Thomas, who has run out of his drug, is killed by various enemies of Batman from multiple timelines, while saving Dick Grayson. In Earth 2: World's End, Dick Grayson is introduced as a reporter, having never become Robin or Nightwing. His wife is Barbara Gordon, with whom he has a son, Johnny. His family flee for their lives during Darkseid's invasion and they live in a refugee camp; Barbara dies and Johnny goes missing. After finding Johnny, they line up to board an evacuation ship though they are refused under the proviso of women and children first so Richard gives his son away again to a woman, who is already inside. He then joins the battle next to Batman in one of the reacquired spaceships but they get saved by Green Lantern, who transports them off the planet. Following the events of Convergence, he follows the rest of the heroes from his Earth, to their new home, where he takes the mantle of Batman, after Thomas Wayne's death. | Batman |
| Diana Prince Trevor | Diana of Amazon Island | Princess Diana of Paradise Island, served as a member of the All-Star Squadron and soon after became secretary (later full-fledged member) of the Justice Society of America. As Diana Prince, she worked in the U.S. War Department as an assistant to intelligence officer Steve Trevor. Decades later, she and Trevor were married and had a daughter named Lyta, later known as Fury. Although Diana was retconned out of existence by the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths and All-Star Squadron #60. Following 52, another version of the character appeared, the mother of Fury, mother-in-law of Hector Hall. Diana Trevor is no longer an active member of the JSA and not a member of that group's successor Justice Society Infinity. It is unclear if she had a falling out with the group or merely retired. In the New 52, Wonder Woman, the daughter of Hippolyta, she had taken over command of the Amazons after her mother's death. She had an affair with Steppenwolf, though she was unaware of his true intentions, which resulted in her having a daughter, Fury, with whom she has a dysfunctional relationship. Diana came to Man's World to stop Apokoliptian invaders from abducting young Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent. With Mercury's help, she succeeded. The Amazons suffered heavily during Darkseid's invasion. The island was destroyed and all Amazons killed. The Gods joined the war effort, but were decimated. She was stabbed in the back by Steppenwolf in the battle for Earth with Apokolips, when she tries to buy time for Batman, resulting to her death. | Wonder Woman |
| Jay Garrick | Jay Garrick | The Flash of Earth-Two is Jason Peter Garrick. As a college student, Garrick accidentally inhaled hard water vapors, (later stories would change this to heavy water vapors), after falling asleep in his laboratory where he had been smoking. As a result, he discovered that he can run at superhuman speed and had similarly fast reflexes. Decades later, Garrick became the first Justice Society member to learn of Earth-One's existence when he met his counterpart, Barry Allen. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Jay's history was slightly retconned, so he and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. During Zero Hour, all the members of the JSA were aged to their chronological ages by the villain Extant, including Jay. Following 52, another version of the character appeared, as the former member of the Justice Society of America. Like some of his Justice Society contemporaries, he has retired, though still occasionally engages in active crime-fighting. In the New 52, a 21-year-old recent college graduate, Jay is spurned by his girlfriend, Joan Williams, and possesses very little in terms of career prospects. He receives his "superspeed" from Mercury, a dying Olympian god who sees bravery in Jay, and is also the last god to fall following a war with Apokolips. Jay escapes a World Army Helicopter that sees the event as Mercury dies and tells Jay to run. He saves a couple from Apokorats, saying he will do it in 'a Flash', the man then mentions he heard the hero say something. While testing out his speed, he was confronted by Hawkgirl who had been expecting him. Jay and Hawkgirl soon discovered that the planet was being overtaken by a force called The Grey, and they journeyed to Washington, DC to put a stop to its avatar, Solomon Grundy. They defeated him with the help of the Green Lantern and The Atom. Unfortunately, Garrick's conflict with The Atom, his alliance with Hawkgirl, and his status as a metahuman made him an enemy of the World Army. A team of soldiers were sent Jay's mother's home to apprehend him but they escaped capture. He then joins the rest of the heroes to fight against Apokolips. In Earth 2: World's End, Jay is one of the heroes and civilians who immigrate from Earth 2 to their new home. | The Flash |
| Alan Scott | Alan Scott | Green Lantern of Earth-Two is engineer Alan Scott. After a railroad accident, he is led from the wreck by a voice coming from a train lantern. It tells him to use part of the lantern to make a ring, and to recharge the ring by way of the lantern every 24 hours. The lantern was made from metal found in a meteor long ago. The source of Scott's power is the mystical "Starheart", the magical characteristics of the Earth-One universe gathered by the Guardians of the Universe. This collective force was hidden in the heart of a star and eventually became sentient. It helped to retard Scott's aging process. Alan subsequently met and quickly married a young woman named Alyx Florin, unaware that she was actually the schizophrenic but reformed villain Rose Canton (a.k.a. The Thorn). Alyx disappeared on their wedding night, starting a fire that led Alan to believe she had died. The two have a pair of children who would grow up and be raised separately by adoptive families as Jennifer-Lynn Hayden and Todd Rice. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Alan's history was slightly retconned, so he and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. Following 52, another version of the character appeared, but very little has been revealed about his specific background other than he was a formidable presence in the Justice Society of America. He is not a member of its successor group Justice Society Infinity and it is unclear if he had a falling out with the successor group or merely retired. Scott was later revealed to have died sometime ago, as stated by his daughter, Jade. In the New 52, Alan is the young dynamic head of GBC productions. Scott is revealed to have a boyfriend named Sam, to whom he intends to propose while on vacation in China. Before he can do so, however, the train on which the couple is travelling is suddenly wrecked. A mysterious green flame protects Scott and heals him; a disembodied voice informs him that the crash was caused by a force that threatens the whole world, and that Sam did not survive. The grief-stricken Scott is then told that he will be given the power to avenge his love and protect the world. The flame creates a costume for him, and molds Sam's engagement ring into a power ring with which Scott can harness his power. Reborn as the Green Lantern, Scott proceeds to help the other survivors and swears vengeance for Sam. Green Lantern is associated with "The Green", a mystical realm/force that connects all plant life on Earth. He succeeded in defeating the Avatar of Grey with the help of other young heroes and later joined them in the war against Apokolips. Alan is one of the heroes, who immigrated from Earth 2 to their new home. | Green Lantern |
| Kara Zor-(E)L/Karen Starr | Kara Zor-(E)L/Karen Starr | Power Girl is the cousin of Superman and she arrived on Earth(-Two) late in Superman's career, and assumed the name Karen Starr as her secret identity. She took his place in the Justice Society of America after he entered into semi-retirement to focus on his personal life. After the events of the Crisis on Infinite Earths and the merging of Earth-Two into New Earth, Power Girl was led to believe that she was a descendant of the Atlantean sorcerer Arion. This was later revealed to be a deception, and Kara's true Earth-Two heritage was revealed to her during the Infinite Crisis. Power Girl's existence was not revealed to the general public until years after her arrival. Her cousin Clark and his wife Lois provided her a family environment to assist her transition toward real life relationships. She came to regard her cousin and his wife as her "uncle" and "aunt" for raising her on Earth-Two despite being cousins by blood and marriage. Following 52, another version of the character appeared. At some point in time, Superman was missing and that forced Power Girl to search for her lost cousin in space. She had remained unheard for years until she returned to her Earth without any success, but to find the Power Girl of the New Earth, believing she had something to do with Superman's disappearance. Ultimately, the misunderstanding is resolved but Power Girl remained unsuccessful on what actually happened to her cousin. In the New 52, Kara is the cousin and adopted daughter of Clark Kent and Lois Lane and the Supergirl of her world. Prior to her arrival on Earth, she was friends with Val-Zod when they were raised together on Krypton. She and Helena Wayne were flung out of their universe and into Prime Earth, during Apokolips' invasion and after her "parents"' death. Kara and Helena established new identities to blend in, but they also sought a way to return home. As Karen Starr, she used her powers quietly, working to buy or "borrow" as much advanced technology as possible to that end. She soon became a public figure, and quite wealthy. Kara decided to assume the identity of Power Girl during her superheroic exploits. The duo eventually found their way back to Earth 2, where Kara was reunited with her friend Val-Zod, the new Superman. Power Girl is one of the heroes and civilians, who have immigrated from Earth 2 into their new home. | Supergirl Power Girl |
| Helena Wayne | Helena Wayne | Helena was born in 1957 to Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle Wayne, and grew up enjoying the benefits of being in a wealthy household. As a youth, she enjoyed a thorough education, as well as being trained by her parents, Batman and Catwoman, to become a superb athlete. After finishing school, she joined the law firm of Cranston and Grayson. In 1976, criminal Silky Cernak blackmailed his old boss Selina Kyle into resuming action once again as Catwoman, an act which eventually led to her death. Helena, deciding to bring Cernak to justice, created a costume for herself, fashioned some weapons from her parents' equipment (including her eventual trademark, a crossbow), and set out to bring him in. After accomplishing this, Helena decided to continue to fight crime, under the code name "the Huntress." Helena continued to fight crime as the Huntress formally joining her father's former ward Dick Grayson as his junior partner and later became a member of the revitalized Justice Society of America as well as that of Infinity, Inc. Due to Crisis on Infinite Earths, she was erased from existence. Following 52, another version of the character appeared. This Helena experienced a partial mental collapse during the last case involving the master criminal Joker. Having tired of the losses to the dying aged criminal, including her own father, Helena made the decision to kill him but failed to do so as he died by an accident. Helena took pleasure in seeing the Joker killed, even accidentally. In The New 52 continuity, Helena Wayne fought alongside her father as Robin. During Apokolips' invasion, her father sacrificed his life, with Helena witnessing it. She was later stranded on Prime Earth along with Kara Zor-El, where she served as the Huntress. Helena later appears in Italy to combat the local mafia after hearing their role in recent kidnappings and slave trading. She returns to Earth-2 along with Power Girl during Darkseid's second invasion in Earth 2: World's End, where she is united with her grandfather the new Batman, only to end up evacuating the planet once again after the forces of Apokolips consumed it. She takes with her a codex her father left behind containing all of Earth-2's history, DNA, and blueprints for rebuilding their world. | Robin Huntress Helena Kyle |
| Shiera Sanders Hall | Kendra Munoz-Saunders | Hawkgirl of Earth-Two was Shiera Saunders, companion of Carter Hall (Hawkman). Centuries ago, Chay-Ara and her lover Prince Khufu were killed by Hath-Set with a knife forged from an alien metal called the nth metal. The properties of the metal and the strength of the duo's love created a bond between them, causing them to be reborn multiple times throughout the centuries. Saunders and Hall were eventually married and had a son named Hector Hall. She was also a member of the All-Star Squadron and a close associate of the Justice Society of America. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Shiera's history was slightly retconned, so she and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. Shiera died when she was merged with Carter and Katar Hol to form a new Hawkman version, a "hawk god" creature, during the events of Zero Hour. In Brightest Day, Shiera was one of a small group of people to be resurrected by the light of the White Lantern Power Battery. Following 52, another version of the character appeared. She is apparently a reserve member of Justice Society Infinity. In the New 52, Kendra Saunders is a professional treasure hunter, and was hired by the World Army before an unrevealed event occurred in Egypt that resulted in the grafting of wings to Kendra's back, the same time Khalid Ben-Hassin found the Helmet of Fate. Her full origin has not been revealed other than some insinuation of her background as part of a secret program that included Al Pratt. She alongside the Flash, Green Lantern and Doctor Fate form the Wonders of the World, who battled Apokolips during its second invasion. Kendra has since immigrated, along with the rest of the heroes and civilians, from Earth 2 into their new home. | Hawkgirl/Hawkwoman |
| Kent Nelson | Khalid Ben-Hassin | Doctor Fate was Kent Nelson, who was orphaned as a child after his archaeologist father was killed for opening the tomb of the wizard Nabu. The wizard raised Nelson and taught him the ways of magic, eventually giving him a mystical amulet and the Helmet of Fate, which contained Nabu's essence. Whenever Nelson wore the helmet, his personality melded with that of Nabu. Dr. Fate's first encounter with a hero of that era was the Spectre, the wrath of God. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Kent's history was slightly retconned, so he and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. Following 52, another version of the character appeared. He was a member of the Justice Society of America, searching for two of his missing allies, Superman and Power Girl. In the New 52, the current Doctor Fate is Khalid Ben-Hassin. He is an associate of Kendra Saunders who discovers the Helmet of Nabu in a tomb in Egypt, but is reluctant to use its power due to the increasing presence of Nabu's spirit affecting his thoughts and sanity. After Superman mercilessly attacks him, Khalid becomes traumatized and psychologically damaged by the ordeal. Dr Fate has since joined the rest of his Earth's heroes to battle the forces of Apokolips. Khalid then immigrated along with the others from Earth 2 to their new home. | Doctor Fate |
| Aquaman | Marella/Aquawoman | Given superhuman strength and the ability to live underwater and communicate with marine life by his scientist father, the young man grew up to fight for justice as Aquaman. He briefly joined the All-Star Squadron, but preferred to work alone. He was retconned out of existence by the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths and All-Star Squadron #60. In the New 52, the rightful ruler of Atlantis is Queen Marella, who became an ally of the Wonders of the World after she was freed by Batman from the Black Basement of the Arkham Command Center, where she was kept as a prisoner of the World Army, in stasis, after she was captured. She was referred by her alias "Aquawoman" by James Olsen, but she was hastened to say that the nickname was something she abhorred. She assisted Batman and the other heroes in locating the Kryptonian Val-Zod before returning to Atlantis but vowed to help when called. During Apokolips' second invasion, Marella joined the fight against Darkseid and she was the one, who unleashed the Avatar of "The Blue", Azathoth, which was kept hidden underneath Atlantis, from an underwater sleep. Marella eventually immigrated along with the rest of heroes and civilians from Earth 2 to their new home. | Aquaman |
| Abigail Mathilda "Ma" Hunkel | Lois Lane | The original Red Tornado of Earth-Two is a widow known as "Ma" Hunkel. While her children were in their youth, Hunkel ran a small Manhattan grocery store. One of the first superhero parodies, her costume consisted of longjohns and a cooking pot which she wore on her head. Because of her roly-poly build, she was able to successfully masquerade as a man. Although a costume mishap prevented her from attending the first meeting of the Justice Society of America, she eventually became an honorary member. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Ma's history was slightly retconned, so she and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. In the New 52, the Red Tornado was an android which grew out of the World Army's "Red Files" initiative. In the spirit of other heroes, this android was built but never successfully activated. The robot was requisitioned by Terrence Sloan and was activated for the battle between Fury and Mister Miracle and Barda. The Red Tornado was devoid of emotion until an intervention from General Samuel Lane, who, with the help of Dr. Robert Crane, transfers the mind of his deceased daughter Lois, who died during the events of the first Apokoliptian invasion at the Daily Planet, into the robotic body. Lois was forced to accept her new existence as a robot just as the Arkham facility, where Lois was resurrected, was destroyed by forces of Apokolips, killing her father. Lois joined the fight against Apokolips during the second invasion and helped another Kryptonian, Val-Zod, become acclimated to using his powers for the sake of good. She even had to face a clone of her deceased husband, who was working for Darkseid and claiming to be the original Superman. Lois was eventually reunited with her adopted daughter and her husband's cousin, Power Girl, who returned to Earth 2 after five years of absence. Lois has since immigrated along with the rest of the heroes and civilians from Earth 2 to their new home. | Red Tornado |
| Terry Sloan(e) | Terry Sloan(e) | Terry Sloane was a rich man whose photographic memory, Olympic-level athletic skills, and mastery of the martial arts made him a virtual Renaissance man. After graduating college at age thirteen, he eventually became a renowned business leader. Having accomplished all of his goals by his early 20s, Terry felt there were no challenges left for him to pursue, leading him towards suicidal tendencies. However, upon seeing a young woman jump from a bridge, Sloane reacted quickly and saved her. He learned her name was Wanda Wilson. Sloane assisted her brother, who had been caught up in a gang, by adopting his Mister Terrific persona. He then created the "Fair Play Club" to stymie growing juvenile delinquency. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Terry's history was slightly retconned, so he and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. In the New 52, Terry Sloan, a government research scientist before his planet was attacked by Steppenwolf, found himself on the front lines of the war, using the identity Mister 08, the Eighth Wonder of the World. However, while researching avenues of counter-attack, he received visions of the future. Acting to prevent these visions during his final mission, he blew up an alien device, destroying four nations. Going AWOL, nothing is known of his actions from then on, except that he was apparently preparing for the onset of a new age of wonders. When Michael Holt, a superhero from another world, landed in Manhattan, Sloan was there to kidnap him to prevent his vision from coming through. After Apokolips' second invasion, Sloan immigrated, along with the rest of the heroes and civilians, from Earth 2 to their new home. In Earth 2: Futures End, it was implied by another version of him from an unknown parallel Earth, that this Sloan is not a native of Earth 2, but whether this is true or even that a version of him from Earth 2 actually exists, have yet to be revealed. | Mister Terrific |
| Al Pratt | Al Pratt | The Atom of Earth-Two was college-student-turned-physicist Al Pratt. Pratt's tenure as the Atom was particularly notable, inasmuch as he was barely five feet (1.5 m) in height, and had no superpowers for much of his career. Through intense training, he achieved peak physical condition and became a fierce brawler. Among Golden Age members of the Justice Society, only Wildcat and Batman were considered more formidable in hand-to-hand combat. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Al's history was slightly retconned, so he and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth. Following 52, another version of the character appeared. He was a member of the Justice Society of America and remained active after the team became Justice Society Infinity, alongside his godson Nuklon. In the New 52, Al is a U.S. Sergeant in charge of a squad carrying an atomic bomb meant to neutralize an Apokoliptian tower responsible for transporting Parademons to Earth. His squad however is attacked while en route to the tower and the bomb is detonated. Al is later found unharmed in the center of a giant hand print in the ground. Five years later, Al has become a captain in the World Army and is operating as a superhero codenamed "the Atom", possessing the atomic energy powers and size-changing powers. Al is deployed as the Atom to take down Grundy who is rampaging across Washington DC. After dropping mid air from his transport, Al enlarges and lands on Grundy, ordering the Flash, Green Lantern and Hawkgirl to stand down. Al eventually defeated Grundy, with the help of the other heroes. Al's next appearance was in Dherain's inland steppes with Sandman and Red Arrow to deal with the parademon forces protecting its borders and they were soon joined by the Wonders of the World. During Apokolips' second invasion, and while helping evacuate as many World Army soldiers from their outposts as he could, a Superman clone working for Darkseid severed Al's right arm with his heat vision and used it to fell him to the ground before flying off. Al spent most of his time in a medically induced coma, and was awakened to perform one last mission. Using his size altering abilities he was dropped down a small hole and expanded to create a cavern to house the last remaining survivors of Earth 2, at the expense of his own life. As a token of gratitude, the people of Earth 2 named it Atom's Haven. | The Atom |
| Wesley Dodds | Wesley Dodds | The Sandman was one of DC's early "Mystery Men," and DC has used the name for several different characters. He was a member of the Justice Society. His shtick was to run around in a gasmask with a sleeping gas gun. Originally the character has no special abilities, but he was retroactively given the ability to have prophetic dreams. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Wesley's history was slightly retconned, so he and the rest of JSA became natives of the main Earth.

As a biology student under the tutelage of Doctor Gilbert Giles, his former professor performed extensive surgery on him with mechanized steel devices that facilitate normal human functions only on a superhuman level. He adopted the persona "Commander Steel", and started fighting fifth columnist saboteurs before being sent to Europe on secret missions. He later also became a member of the All-Star Squadron.

He was saved from his affliction by his scientist father Henry Sr. who used a special metal alloy to make his bones stronger by binding with his DNA; however, it replaced the bones and some of his vital organs entirely, while imbuing him with super-strength and a mental control over machinery. Henry's father tried to turn in his work to the World Army, but he and Henry, Jr. were attacked by Apokolips's forces. Rather than have his work taken by the Parademons, Henry, Sr. took his own life and destroyed his documents. After the Apokolips War ended, Henry Jr. joined the World Army and took the code-name "Captain Steel". Captain Steel was sent on a mission to Rio de Janeiro to enter one of the fire pits left by the war, but something went wrong and Heywood left the pit after 35 hours, warning the people to close the pit before the Red Lantern got out, as she intended to kill the world. Because of Henry's durability, he has lost touch with his humanity causing him to make emotionless choices and react coldly. During Apokolips' second invasion, Henry defends Earth 2 from the Parademons, along with the rest of the agents of World's Army. He is later seen surveying the colony, known as Atom's heaven with Commander Sato and they talk about the relative peace of the underground refuge compared to the war on the surface.

Living alongside Native Americans on reservation land, Queen began a lifelong appreciation of the tribal lifestyle of the native Indians, becoming an Indian historian and even developing a proficiency with archery. When he sought to rebuild his vast and prized Indian relic collection from thieves, he took up his bow for the first time against evil doers. Deciding to continue on, Queen became the master archer known as the "Green Arrow" for the rest of his life. His large collection of artifacts and relics of the Native Americans, which he would lend out to various museums, afforded him a large personal fortune. Green Arrow later became a member of the All-Star Squadron and the Seven Soldiers of Victory. He died in 1985 during Crisis on Infinite Earths, and was retconned out of existence by the events of that series and All-Star Squadron #60.

Red Arrow along with the other heroes are quickly subdued by the Hunger Dogs, however and left unconscious on the battle field. He later awoke after being healed by Doctor Fate and went along with the other Wonders to aid the World Army's forces. Connor is later killed by monsters unleashed by the invading forces of the planet Apokolips. Originally, it was intended for Red Arrow to be called "Roy McQueen", a mix of Roy Harper and Oliver Queen but the name never appeared in the comics and the character was eventually named Connor Hawke.

| Cyrus Gold | Solomon Grundy | In the late 19th century, a wealthy merchant named Cyrus Gold is murdered and his body disposed of in Slaughter Swamp, near Gotham City. Fifty years later, the corpse is reanimated as a huge shambling figure with almost no memory of its past life. He shows up in a hobo camp and, when asked about his name, one of the few things he can recall is that he was "born on a Monday". One of the men at the camp mentions the nursery rhyme character Solomon Grundy (who was born on a Monday), and Gold adopts the moniker. Solomon Grundy falls into a life of crime—or, perhaps returns to one as his scattered residual memories may indicate—attracting the attention of the Green Lantern, Alan Scott. Grundy proves to be a difficult opponent, with an inherent resistance to Scott's powers. He apparently kills Green Lantern, who gives off a green flash. Liking this flash, Grundy commits murders hoping to see the flash again. However, the first fight ends when Grundy is hurled under a train by Green Lantern. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Grundy's history was slightly retconned, so he became a native of the main Earth. In the New 52, Grundy personifies "The Grey" life-destroying forces and opposes "The Green" forces that choose Alan Scott as their champion. Originally, a slaughterhouse worker in 1898, his wife was raped by his callous foreman, and she killed herself on the job. When the foreman made the workers feed the body to the crocodiles, Grundy snapped, killed his foreman and everyone else in the slaughterhouse, then committed suicide, but apparently something happened immediately afterwards. He later attacks Washington DC to get Alan's attention. Flash, Hawkgirl, and Green Lantern fight him, but Atom brings him down temporarily by jumping onto him at giant size. The battle continues until Scott once again exiles Grundy to the moon where neither he nor the "Grey" can do any damage. During Apokolips' second invasion, the Parliament of Elements reach the conclusion that all the Avatars, including Grundy, must combine their power into one source to overcome the strength of the Deathspawn, Darkseid's monstrous child and save Earth 2, so Green Lantern is chosen to be the last remaining Avatar. After their fusion Grundy disappears. | |

Jonni apparently had mental control over the Thunderbolt creature, though she herself was rendered unconscious when it was active. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Jonni's history was slightly retconned, so she became a native of the main Earth. In the New 52, Jonni Thunder was one of the prisoners at Arkham Base. They were all released by John Constantine of Prime Earth, in order to help him return to his Earth.

He later met and fell in love with Damon Matthews, an assistant district attorney. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Todd's history was slightly retconned, so he became a native of the main Earth. Following 52, another version of the character appeared. He is a member of the Justice Society of America and that he is searching for two of his missing allies, Superman and Power Girl. In the New 52, Rice was one of the prisoners at Arkham Base. They were all released by John Constantine of Prime Earth, in order to help him return to his Earth. This version is depicted as an African-American and is not related with Alan Scott.

He was married to Merry Pemberton, and they had a child who would become his heroic successor. King was a member of the Injustice Society and later of the Secret Society of Super-Villains. Henry King ultimately died protecting his son. As a last redemption, Henry King also transferred all his mental powers to his son. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so King Sr.'s history was slightly retconned, so he became a native of the main Earth. King, Jr. is the son of the criminal Brain Wave and the superheroine Gimmick Girl. He would remain mostly hidden from the condemnation of his famous parents until he attained early adulthood and sought to actively pursue an active crime-fighting career in some measure to atone for his father's past deeds. He later joined the group called Infinity, Inc., which was formed by his uncle, Sylvester Pemberton, the original Star-Spangled Kid. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so King Jr.'s history was slightly retconned, so he became a native of the main Earth. In the New 52, Henry King, Jr. was one of the prisoners at Arkham Base. They were all released by John Constantine of Prime Earth, in order to help him return to his Earth. Soon after their arrival at Atom's Haven Brainwave begins to enslave the minds of the refugee-seekers to better enable their transition into the space ship he had acquired and the others assist him with his plan. He then brought all of those he controlled before him to board his shuttle; unbeknownst to him Richard and Ted Grant were also within the crowd. Upon discovering Richard, and subsequently his innate resistance to his mental powers, King, Jr. takes control of his compatriots and Ted Grant forcing him to level his gun at Richard. At the very last second Batman and Huntress arrive and knock him unconscious, thereby releasing the minds of those he controlled leaving them to descend into a frenzy. In Earth 2 Annual #1, a duo of characters, a father and son named Henri Roy, Sr. and Jr. appeared, as a presumed revamped and renamed version of Brainwave. Sr. is a weapons dealer of illegal hardware from Apokolips, who was hunted by the World Army. He was defeated by the combined efforts of Atom and Batman as well as his son Henri Jr., who worked with the World Army, sending them information about his father's whereabouts. After his father's arrest, Henri, Jr. decided to join Sonia Sato's Hero Initiative. Terry Sloan, who was in charge of the scientific aspect of the program wanted to study him because of his abnormal migraines. Because the character who is later introduced in Earth 2: World's End #8, is identified as Junior and first appears in a World Army base, it is possible that Henry Roy, Jr. and Henry King, Jr. are the same person, and because of the change of writers the character's name was mistaken. | |

As the war between Earth 2 and Apokolips gained in momentum, Sam reappeared to Alan and Grundy, now forced to join forces, announcing that he was the Avatar of "The White", the elemental force of the air, and that their time was running out. When Deathspawn launched its attack upon the Parliament of Earth and killed Azathoth, the powers of the avatars waned which led the Parliament to instruct Alan Scott to combine the spirits (and therefore the avatars) to combat the invasion, though Sam's spirit still exists within Alan. After being defeated by Darkseid, Alan is awoken from near-death by Sam's essence who reveals that he was chosen as a fellow avatar to ease Alan's transition into realizing his full potential as the last champion of Earth and to embody its primordial essences at the cost of losing his memories of Sam. | |
