I can't figure out who the purple uniformed character is.

I just finished this Aquarius DC Comics Lineup 3000 Piece Puzzle, and it was bugging me that his pieces were easy to find, but his identity was not. DC database searching hasn't been fruitfull, so I suspect that either this isn't the "modern" costume, or he's a nameless mook from an organization that I have overlooked.

Who is he?

Blackhawk Squadron?

General Zod most likely, since that's what he wore in the old days.

He's General Zod, grandma.

I suppose the shield emblem lends a lot of credence to that. In my head, I labeled the guy next to him as Zod because of the resemblance to the Christopher Reeve movie version.

>>1044046

I think that's The Wizard next to Zod. If not him, then maybe Abracadabra. I'm a little fuzzy because I've only seen a lot of these guys in Federal Press Australian B&W reprints, so I don't know their colour schemes.

Hell, as a kid I thought Killmonger was a white guy with Gene Simmons hair…

Maybe he's Ras al Ghul? He's in with other Superman villains, though

He's Jor-El's cousin Kru-El. He was sentenced to the Phantom Zone for creating an arsenal of forbidden weapons.

I got a bigger image of the jigsaw.

>>1044086

Weird, this all looks like Late Bronze Age, with Nightwing and I presume Jason Todd Robin, robot Brainiac, armour Lex Luthor, Firestorm, and Mussolini Zod, but Harley Quinn was a later vintage wasn't she? Is this a redraw of an older artwork? The knobs on her shoulders aren't normally part of her costume, surely?


 No.1044127

>>1044055

Wait is that a reference to the Sumerian god El?


 No.1044171

>>1044127

No. El is Superman's Kryptonian family name. Superman was Kal-El, his father was Jor-El, Superman's uncle was Zor-El, and his cousin Supergirl is Kara Zor-El.

>>1044127

Angels' names all end with "el".

I do remember Braniac referring to Superman as "the exterminating angel".

Is that a thing?


 No.1044277

>>1044257

I cant honestly recall, was it in the animated series?

>>1044277

I found it. Jack Kirby's Super Powers series, looks like it was just an odd turn of phrase, I could find no other references to Superman as an exterminating angel anywhere.

No, he fucking said it again.

Was that a catchphrase unique to this incarnation of Braniac?
