Everyone's favorite "Booyah" screaming bionic boy Cyborg isn't always taken the most seriously as a hero, largely due to his recent characterization on Teen Titans Go, but that doesn't mean he can't pack a punch. Believe it or not, according to new info about the upcomingJustice League Odyssey #24, it seems that Cyborg might be the key to the Justice League's only chance to stop Darkseid.

Originally created by writerMarv Wolfmanand artistGeorge Prez, Cyborg serves a bridge between humanity and technology. After a terrible accident within his father's lab mutilates and almost kills him, his father saves his life by using experimental cybernetic prosthetics, making him part man, and part machine. Being enhanced as he is, Cyborg has various abilities stretching from typical superhuman enhancements, such as super strength, to more unique abilities, like being able to directly interact with computers.
