Judgment was an enemy of the Justice League America.
History
James was the brother of terrorist John Collins who was duped into enacting a terrorist plot against the U.N. by Maxwell Lord in order to better publicize his new iteration of Justice League America.[1] Seeking revenge against Lord, Collins had been secretly extorting him for millions of dollars using it to alter himself in order to gain an edge on the world's greatest superhumans.[2]
Powers and Abilities
Powers
- Explosive Energy Manipulation: Judgement underwent the process of augmenting himself using secretly embezzled funds. He gained the power of emitting and focusing a naturally explosive energy generated from his body. This made him an exceptionally lethal combatant as he was a danger both in close, as well as, long range combat while using these abilities.[3]
- Energy Projection: Judgment can launch volatile energy from any part of his body over great distances. These range from being able to emit localized explosions with a snap of his fingers, to launching optic blasts, to tagging a space station from Earth.
- Protective Aura: Collins is protected from his own explosive power by a protective shielding which also explodes on contact when met with opposing force.
- Energy Enhanced Strike: Can combine his explosive force with physical melee to land devastating blows against superpowered beings as tough as Captain Atom and Wonder Woman.
Abilities
Weaknesses
- Distance Limitation: The effectiveness of his powers waned the further away he casts its explosive effects.
Paraphernalia
Equipment
- Amplification Armor: Judgment wears a host of technological carapaces in order to bolster the effectiveness of his powers.[2]
