Truthfully, this sneak peek solely give me extra questions. How will The Engineer issue into this story, particularly whereas there’s different villains like Lex Luthor additionally concerned. And I additionally need to know what occurred that ofund her on the bottom like this. Was it a scuffle with David Corenswet’s title character, or perhaps different heroes like Inexperienced Lantern Man Gardner or Hawkgirl.
Whereas The Engineer is a personality’s been within the comics for some time, she’s not precisely a family identify the best way that different DC characters are.
