Honorable Mention: Breach

Breach is many things. Soldier, superhero. But what he is also is a target. Specifically he, Nightshade, Lady Quark, and The Ray are targets of Darkseid. Darkseid wants these four because, in some way, they can help him convert other worlds into armies of Parademons, like what happened to K'Ray.

Roz'etta has taken it upon herself to connect to Breach, whom the field teams found in the bowels of Area 51. From him, she learned that Breach had been captured by Prometheus at the Battle of Metropolis, but specifically not sent to Darkseid. Why would Prometheus do this? What is his game? I'm not sure, but I am curious about it, even if the most recent opportunity to ask Prometheus of his motives wasn't quite the right circumstances to question his reasons.

Of course, that's Breach's story, but what makes Breach special isn't his story, it's that despite the costume, he is a soldier through and through. This is a man who knows how to fight, wants to fight, but due to the fact that he is near the top of Darkseid's Christmas Wishlist, the best thing Breach can do for his cause is nothing. He can't have his blood studied for connections to other worlds, as his suit breaking would unleash his energy. He can't fight, as bringing attention to him would be far worse than anything we can gain from his appearance. And for that, he suffers. He's such a genuine, respectable hero, who just wants to help in some way.

But he can't. Not yet. For some heroes, being told you're ordered to stand down is something to naturally fight against. Tommy Jagger and Fire are two of the ones who hate being shelved. Breach, the loyal and dutiful soldier, knows orders are orders for a reason.

It's really just a sad story, Breach is. But I'm also excited for when he's finally able to let go in the field.
