Throughout the season, he battles Oliver Queen and his allies until Vixen destroys the Khushu Idol. Damien is prosecuted and sent to Iron Heights Penitentiary, but recruits Malcolm Merlyn, Brick, and Murmur before eventually breaking out, killing Laurel Lance in the process. After Anarky kills his wife and destroys the "Ark" in which he and H.I.V.E. planned to survive the nuclear holocaust they wanted to cause, Damien becomes nihilistic and maintains his attempt to destroy the world until Queen, his allies, Mr. Terrific, and the Calculator disable all but one of H.I.V.E.'s nuclear bombs and rally Star City's citizens against him, with the outpouring of hope negating Damien's powers.

The Legion eventually obtains the Spear of Destiny and create a new timeline for themselves, with Damien becoming Star City's mayor and restoring his magical powers, but the Legends travel back in time to undo their victory, defeat them, and return them to the points in time where they were pulled from with no memory of their activities. In the third season, Damien is resurrected and has his memories restored by his daughter Nora Darhk before he agrees to help free Mallus by creating time aberrations to weaken the latter's interdimensional prison. However, the Darhks clash over their differing approaches to their relationship. After Nate Heywood and Ray Palmer convince Damien that Nora will cease to exist if he frees Mallus, Damien joins the Legends in thwarting the demon's plot to possess her, sacrificing himself to save her in the process.

Dodger

edit

Debuting in Green Arrow and Black Canary #7 (June 2008), Dodger is a thief who deals in high-end merchandise. Operating from London, England, Dodger will steal or sell anything from information to advanced technology.

At one point he came into possession of what appeared to be an alien spacecraft. Recognizing that the vehicle's stealth capabilities made it a lucrative commodity, he began leasing the vessel to various underworld figures, including the League of Assassins. When the vessel in question was linked to an assassination attempt against Connor Hawke, Green Arrow, and Black Canary began investigating its activity. The trail led them to London where they (along with Mia "Speedy" Dearden) engaged in combat with Dodger at a local pub. Although Dodger proved to be an able-bodied physical combatant, "Team Arrow" subdued him and he told them about the League of Assassins.

When pressed for more information, Dodger was unwilling to cooperate, so the Green Arrow and the Black Canary dropped him from the belly of a cargo plane suspended by a bungee cord until he agreed to give them better intelligence. He took them to his secret lair and triangulated the last location of the stealth ship he had leased.

The Green Arrow and the Black Canary then persuaded him to accompany them on the search, which brought them to a castle in Leichestershire, England. They evaded several traps and finally discovered a cryogenics tube containing the compressed form of former Justice Leaguer Plastic Man.

Dodger continued to work alongside "Team Arrow" and fought a team of metahumans who claimed to represent the League of Assassins. Dodger contributed very little to the battle; however, he did manage to distract one of them long enough for Batman to subdue him. Dodger continued adventuring with the group, battled foes and completed the adventure along with the team.

After settling their business with the League of Assassins, Dodger accompanied "Team Arrow" back to the United States, where he struck up a romantic relationship with Mia Dearden. Mia has now left the States and traveled to London to continue this relationship.

Dominus

edit
For the Marvel Comics villain, see Dominus (Marvel Comics).

Dominus is a fictional character and a DC Comics supervillain who first appeared in Action Comics #747. He appears primarily as an opponent of Superman.[73]

Originally, Dominus was an alien priest named Tuoni, who served as one of the five custodians of his world's faith. During this time, he fell in love with his peer, Ahti. However, he was driven mad by jealousy when Ahti ascended past him and assumed the mantle of Kismet, Illuminator of All Realities.[73]

Studying infernal forbidden magic in an attempt to gain the power to challenge his former lover and rob her of the power of Kismet, Tuoni's assault was reflected by Kismet's divine energies and his body was incinerated. Despite Tuoni's deceit, the omnibenevolent Kismet showed him mercy and shunted his shattered, still-living body into the Phantom Zone.[73]

Within the Phantom Zone, Tuoni encountered a holographic projection of Superman's long-dead Kryptonian ancestor, Kem-L, who was able to use his own ancient variety of arcane Kryptonian science to rebuild the former holy man as a psionic cosmic phantasm known as "Dominus".[74]

In this new all-powerful form, Dominus escaped the Zone via Superman's Fortress of Solitude and attacked Earth. Attempting to find Kismet to steal her cosmic powers, he was opposed by Superman. Swearing vengeance, Dominus telepathically entered Superman's mind and preyed on one of the Man of Steel's greatest weaknesses; his fear of failing the people of Earth.

Using mind control, Dominus convinced Superman to take control of Earth and build the Superman robots to police the planet 24 hours a day, seven days a week forever. In another battle, Dominus used his reality-warping powers to become Superman, using the Superman robots to search for Kismet while Superman was disguised as one of his own robots and later as Dominus.

During his captivity in these other forms Superman improved on his use of Torquasm Vo, an ancient Kryptonian warrior discipline technique where the warrior can control what they think. Superman and Dominus then engaged in a mental-physical battle with Dominus using any stray thought of Superman to reshape reality. The battle ends with Superman banishing Dominus to the Phantom Zone.

Dabney Donovan

edit

Dabney Donovan is a character in DC Comics.

Dabney Donovan is a genetic scientist who founded Project Cadmus with Reginald Augustine and Thomas Thompkins. Dabney Donovan was ultimately fired from the Project because he felt there should never be limits in understanding the potential of the genetic code. Donovan had largely been accredited for the non-human creations of the Project, referred to as "DNAliens" (human beings cloned then genetically altered to discover superhuman potential while also giving them a more "alien" appearance), various normal clones, and monsters based on Donovan's favorite horror films (who lived on a small artificial planet on Earth called Transilvane). One of the DNAliens named Dubbilex became a prominent staff member.[75]

After the death of his clone, Dabney was underground when he found Moxie Mannheim badly injured.[78] He even created youthful clone bodies for Moxie Mannheim and his dead henchmen Ginny "Torcher" McCree, Mike "Machine" Gunn, Noose, and Rough House where they also received superpowers. With an older clone of him used as a bomb upon its death during a meeting with the other crime lords, Moxie had Noose kill Vincent Edge while Dabney Donovan makes use of any genetic material that he can salvage from the dead crime lords.[79]

When Mickey Cannon re-established Project Cadmus, Dabney Donovan was brought back under armed guard and made an "imprisoned advisor". He briefly took control of the place during the "Evil Factory" storyline.[80]

Dragon King

edit

Dragon King is a fictional character from DC Comics. He was created by Roy Thomas and Rich Buckler, and first appeared in All-Star Squadron #4, in December 1981.[73]

The man known as "Dragon King" was a high-ranking official and scientist in the Japanese government during World War II, who created the nerve gas K887. He obtained the mythical Holy Grail for Japan, and was able to combine it with Adolf Hitler's Spear of Destiny which the German dictator had loaned to Japanese General Hideki Tōjō.[92] With the two items, the Dragon King and Hitler were able to create a field of arcane magic that shielded imperial Japan and Fortress Europa from attack by the allies' super heroes or "Mystery Men".[93] The field ensured that any hero with magic-based powers, or a vulnerability to magic (like Superman), would instantly be converted to the Axis cause, keeping some of the allies' most powerful heroes out of the theatre of war.[92] Some heroes were temporarily able to circumvent this for humanitarian missions, despite the Dragon King's best efforts.[94] After Japan's surrender on August 15, 1945, the Dragon King went into hiding and experimented with combining his own genetic material with that of a lizard. He eventually succeeded in making himself a hybrid of human and reptile.[73]

In more recent history (in modern age), the Dragon King resurfaced in the fictional town of Blue Valley, Nebraska, with a daughter named Cindy Burman, now the villainess Shiv. While making use of a robot that operated as Principal Sherman at Blue Valley High School, Dragon King is served by Paintball, Skeeter, and Stunt. He clashed against the second Star-Spangled Kid, Courtney Whitmore, her sidekick S.T.R.I.P.E., and the Shining Knight, while the latter was on a quest to reclaim the Holy Grail. It is strongly implied during this confrontation that the Dragon King had in the past murdered the All-Star Squadron member Firebrand.[95] During this fight, the Dragon King himself was defeated and apparently killed by the Shining Knight, although his body was never found.[73]

He later resurfaced with the Spear of Destiny in his possession and attempted to raise an army of super-powered soldiers, but was defeated by the Justice Society of America.[96]

Carl Draper

edit

Carl Draper is a fictional character in DC Comics, an enemy of Superman.[98] Draper made his first appearance in Superman #331 (January 1979), written by Martin Pasko and drawn by Curt Swan and Frank Chiaramonte.[99]

In pre-Crisis comics, Carl "Moosie" Draper grew up in Smallville (see Kator below). Draper was an overweight clumsy teenager whom most of the other kids never noticed or made fun of and was in love with Lana Lang, who had eyes only for Superboy, much to Draper's resentment.[100] As an adult, Draper underwent a self-imposed self-improvement regimen, including exercise and cosmetic surgery, to overcome his physical shortcomings. He became an expert locksmith and architect, designing an inescapable prison for supervillains called "Mount Olympus". Impressed by the achievement, Superman augmented the prison's security by placing it on an antigravity platform. Initially dubbed "Draper's Island" by Superman, it was informally renamed "Superman Island" by the adult Lana—with whom Draper remained smitten, just as she remained lovestruck by Superman. It was the latter name, plus the novelty of the floating platform, that caught public attention, diverting recognition from Draper himself. This proved the final straw for Draper, who snapped and became the costumed supervillain the Master Jailer.[101] He attacked Superman and kidnapped Lana under that name. Superman defeated him and he was sent to his own prison.[102]

In The New Adventures of Superboy #17 (May 1981), at the prodding of Carl, Superboy creates a robot named Kator as a sparring adversary (and gives the "safety cutoff switch" to Jonathan Kent). Kator, however, developed an artificial intelligence and almost killed the Boy of Steel before being destroyed (in The New Adventures of Superboy #18). The robot apparently gave Draper its identity and powers before being destroyed. Draper (as the new Kator) then engages Superboy in combat, but Jonathan Kent presses the safety switch on the "cutoff" device, which removes "Kator's" superpowers from Draper, and Superboy removes the memory of Draper ever being Kator.[103][104]

In post-Crisis comics, Carl Draper first appeared in The Adventures of Superman #517 (November 1994). This was during the "Dead Again" storyline, when Superman was suspected of being an impostor after his body was found still in his tomb (from The Death of Superman storyline). Draper was hired by S.T.A.R. Labs to design a holding cell for Conduit, when his daughter, Carla, asked him if he could build a prison that could hold even Superman. Draper initially designed a trap that only the real Superman could escape from, explaining this to Superman by way of a hologram of a costumed figure named Deathtrap. When Superman escaped the trap, Draper became obsessed with proving that he could capture the real thing. This version of Draper was dressed in casual wear, only getting an updated costume with chain-based attacks later.

Draper made several other attempts to capture Superman, often programming the Deathtrap hologram in advance so he could publicly be elsewhere. On one occasion, in Superman: The Man of Steel #43 (April 1995), he programmed Deathtrap to appear during a Draper Security press conference and display how Draper's devices were being "subverted", thus both removing suspicion from him and acting as an advertisement for the company.

In Action Comics #739, Superman (in his blue energy form) was captured in an "energy hobble" by Deathtrap, now calling himself the Locksmith. At the end of the story, it was revealed to the reader that his daughter, Carla Draper, was running the hologram this time and that her father was unaware of this. The now-costumed Master Jailer was one of the villains along with Neutron controlled by Manchester Black in the 2002 storyline "Ending Battle"; however, it was not clear that it was, in fact, Draper.

Carl Draper appears in Checkmate #17 (October 2007). At some point, Checkmate discovered his multiple identities and used this to force him into becoming a security consultant, protecting Checkmate itself from attack. In the issue, he prevents numerous assaults on Checkmate headquarters and is promoted to head of security with the title Castellan. Although he has not told his superiors, he strongly suspects that Carla is involved in the attacks. The issue also contains an Easter egg—computer displays show an actual website (now defunct)[105] that could be accessed with the username "CARL DRAPER" and the password "wilhelmina". The site was a journal and database written from Draper's perspective. In his journal, he claimed to have been only Deathtrap and that he was unconnected with the Post-Crisis Master Jailer.

A DC Rebirth version of the Master Jailer appears in the Aquaman/Suicide Squad crossover "Sinking Atlantis" as a member of the Squad. Aspects of his pre- and Post-Crisis history are present, with Carl growing up in Smallville and having a daughter.[106]

Dubbilex

edit

Dubbilex is a DNAlien, an artificial, genetically modified human with psychic powers. Created by Jack Kirby, he first appeared in Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #136 (March 1971).[109] In Post-Crisis continuity, he becomes an ally to Superman and was among those who attended his funeral after Doomsday killed him.[110]

Dubbilex grew close to Superboy, having aided in his creation by providing mental impressions that he had gained from past encounters with Superman to provide Superboy with his '"template"'s memories in the absence of Superman's actual mind. Once Kon-El left the Labs for Hawaii, Dubbilex accompanied him to report his status to Cadmus.[111] Although their relationship started off somewhat rocky, they became great friends. Superboy taught Dubbilex about many things about the modern world, while Dubbilex represented Superboy during a "parents' night" for the members of Young Justice.[112]

Dubbilex gained many friends of his own while in Hawaii: Agent Rex Leech, Rex's daughter Roxy, TV reporter Tana Moon, and Bibbo Bibbowski's dog Krypto.[111] Superboy and most of this group end up operating out of a small, isolated house. Dubbilex also helps uncover the nature of Knockout, While Superboy's super-powered girlfriend has fought villains many times, it is revealed, via Dubbilex's powers, that she casually kills an innocent police officer simply because he was in her way.[113]

Once Superboy returned to Cadmus, Dubbilex followed and became the Head of Genetics.[114] Although partly blaming himself for Tana Moon’s death, Dubbilex eventually found a retreat and learned from a monk that Superboy needed to move on with life without his guidance.[115] After Superboy left the Project, Dubbilex has stayed in the background.

Dubbilex and Project Cadmus resurfaced in Countdown to Final Crisis Week 32 (September 2007), in an attempt to help Jimmy Olsen with his new superpowers.

Dubbilex seemingly died due to wounds sustained in battle with Codename: Assassin, when the assassin attempted to eliminate anyone affiliated with the truth about Cadmus' cloning experiments. Despite being shot in the head, his unique physiology allowed him to survive long enough for Jimmy Olsen to find him and learn the truth about recent events. In his apparent last words, he asked Jimmy to consider him a man rather than a creation. Olsen came to believe that Dubbilex was murdered as part of a plot to destroy Superman and all other Kryptonians, such as the recently enlarged citizens of Kandor.[116] He was later proven right; as "Assassin" is seen working for Lex Luthor and General Sam Lane, avowed enemies of Kryptonians.

Dubbilex (or a new clone of him) still lives and returned to battle Supergirl.[117]

In 2011, The New 52 rebooted the DC Universe. Dubbilex appears briefly when Kevin Kho / OMAC attacks Cadmus.[118]
