Justice League #65 welcomes a significant new member of the DC 'family'
One of DC's royal families just expanded

DC has been teasing the identity of the 🥂new espionage character that has been making appearances in his Justice League and Checkmate series, with writer Brian Michael Bendis 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:telling Newsarama a few weeks back that when so🉐me of the character's secrets are revealed it will be "delightful to people."
So how are you delighted by this...?
Spoilers ahead for .
The Daemon Rose is Lois Lane's brother...
Instead of hunting them, Daemon Rose (he doesn't reveal 🌜his first name) tells the couple he needs their help because of Green Arrow's ties to the new Checkmate organization, which Dinah learns about in a scene that has extended over the last issues of two Justice League.
Lois is a member of Green Arrow's covert team.
Daemon (who appears to be relatively young) claims to be an agent of ARGUS (Advanced Research Group Uniting Super-Human), the government agency and division of the Office of Homeland Security that serves as something of a suജpport team to superheroes that was cr🐼eated by Geoff Johns and Gene Ha in 2012 in Justice League #7.

Sam🤪 was head of the organization as per Be꧟ndis' and Alex Maleev's 2019 limited series and was killed by the secret head of the second incarnation of the villainous Leviathan, the former Manhunter Mark Shaw.
Dae😼mon also claims to have been trained by his father Sam until the day Sam died at the hands of Leviathan.
Bendis also told Newsarama Daemon has a very,𒁃 very deep connection to the Superman universe.
What he re🧔ally meant was a very, very deep connection t🐼o the Superman family tree.
While comic book characters comဣe and go, there haven't been many major additions to the Superman and Lane families in the 80+ years of their existence.
Sam Lane his wife Ella we๊re introduced in 1959's but Sam was reinvented into the more familiar military officer v💯ersion after 1985-'86's .
Lois's younger sister Luc🧸y Lane was introduced in 1959's Superman's Pal Jimmy O🔜lsen #36.
'Daemon' suggests dur⛎ing the scene that normally he'd never reveal to anyone that Lois is his sister, and his mother i🌟sn't mentioned in the scene, leaving the door open that perhaps he and Lois have different mothers.
The scene continues with Deathstroke appearing, on the hunt for 'Daemon' although the conclusion of the scene suggests it isn't Slade Wilson under the mask - perhaps this is a seed to the upcoming new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Deathstroke, Inc. series.
That was all the revelat🧸ions to be had in Justice League #65, although past comments by Bendis suggest he has big plans for the 'Daemon Rose' character.
And given the roles Lois, Sam, and Lucy all play in the CW's DC Arrowverse, it'll be worth wat🍌ching to see how quickly the new Lane crosses over to TV.
Either way, it's not every day one of DC's prಞemier families welco💜mes a new member, and July 20, 2021 was one of those days.
The Lanes of course figure prominently in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Superman stories of all time.
I'm not just the Newsarama founder and editor-in-chief, I'm also a reader. And that reference is just a little bit older than the beginning of my Newsarama journey. I founded what would become the co🐠mic book news site in 1996, and except for a brief sojourn at Marvel Comics as its marketing and communications manager in 2003, I've been writing about new comic book titles, creative changes, and occasionally offering my perspective on important industry events and developments for the 25 years since. Despite many changes to Newsarama, my passion for the medium of comic books and the characters makes the last quarter-century (it's crazy to see that in writing) time spent doing what I love most.
