Here is the new look of the new female member of JLU. Not bad. Kinda like it.

Well, here are the spoilers for this weeks FE. Could be wrong, btw.
Spoiler:
oilers:-Dick Grayson is being held in what is called the Murder Machine. It's basically a giant bomb that will only shut off it Dick's heart stops beating. Luthor, Bizarro, Batman, and Catwoman are all stuck in the room with Grayson and they can't get out because the room was made to hold Doomsday (which doesn't jive with current Superman continuity).
-Luthor smothers Grayson and and apparently kills him and Batman attacks Luthor. He tells Batman everything is under control.
-The Syndicate comes back and starts fighting with our Hero-villains. Manta kills the Alfred of Earth-3 who was going to kill the hooded prisoner. Manta and Captain cold remove his hood.
-Johnny Quick and Atomika try to stop Manta and Cold. Cold freezes off one of Johnny Quicks legs. The the prisoner is revealed to be…
-Alexander Luthor of Earth 3. Oh and he is also that Earths Shazam, except he is Mazahs, and he summons the dark lightening. Also he can steal powers from others as he kills Quick and steals his energy.
-The threat from the other universe is not shown at all.

And the Hooded Man is...

Evidently he is not only the E3 version of Shazam, but he can also absorb the powers of other metas. The possibilities for him are literally endless... Seems like Johns have a new pet.
I didn't say who the Hooded Man was in my post--you had to cognizantly click the link I provided to find out. If you couldn't guess that said link contained the Hooded Man's identity, despite my lead-in statement saying: "And the Hooded Man is..." then you're kind of silly.
And I didn't think giving a generalization of his powerset warranted tagging, tbh.

Well, that's a nice take on it.
You might refine it after you're banned for posting spoilers biscuits
Just as you might refine your definition of 'backseat modding' after you're banned for it, eh? 😉

Whining aside: Forever Evil, Arkham War, Green Arrow, and Phantom Stranger were all very good(as usual.)
Although I am curious why the CSA would bring the Hooded Man with them if he is THAT powerful? A last line of defense against the creature, perhaps?
Honestly it's not that big of a deal, but one thing I will say, is that there are what I consider two components to the identity of these Earth 3 characters, and that is their literal identity, but also which DC character they serve as an analogue to. For instance I would consider there being two elements of Superwoman's identity:
1. The fact that she's Lois Lane.
2. The fact that she's a dark version of Wonder Woman.
I was hoping to find out both with the hooded man.
But again, no big deal, just clarifying my position.
