Background[edit | edit source]
An abused child, the boy who will become Manchester Black grows up to despise people with strong morals for their patronising attitude towards people like him. As an adult, Manchester Black leads a team called the Elite which became popular for killing criminals, which in turn causes the public opinion of Superman to wane. This leads to a showdown where Superman tricks Manchester Black into believing the other members of the Elite have died and that Black has lost his powers. Realizing the horror of what he has been doing, Black repents, but swears revenge on Superman. Lex Luthor, as president, recruited Manchester Black, Steel, and a few others to release Doomsday from his prison in space so he could help them fight the Imperiex War. Doomsday got fried but actually went to Darkseid.
