Zatanna is one of the preeminent mages in all of comic books, viewed in equal company with the likes of John Constantine and Dr. Strange. When contemplating the range of her powers and abilities, the question shouldn't be what can she do, but what can she not?

Born to a magical family and inducted into an order of mystics known as the Hidden Ones. Zatanna has since become a go-to anchor for magical threats within the universe, working with the Justice League in a traditional heroic role, and focusing on occult forces as the anchor of Justice League Dark.

Using her father's gimmick of speaking backwards to cast her spells, Zatanna's abilities include weather control, telepathy, pyrokinesis, force fields, mental manipulation. Oh and, she has a red belt in Martian combat, so she can beat you up if necessary. Truthfully, Zatanna's biggest drawback seems to be herself.

Confidence has occasionally be an issue for Zatanna. Feeling enormous guilt over her part in wiping the minds of heroes and villains alike, Zatanna's abilities regressed until she could come to terms and forgive herself. Furthermore, she can be stopped if you can prevent her from speaking or reading words backwards.

Green Arrow once described Zatanna as the single most powerful member of the Justice League. Given her reputation and skillset, he may very well be right.
