Dawn Of The Justice League: Everything You Need To Know
3. The Cyborg Cometh
In the Cyborg segment, which features a rash of cool, ever-so-slightly animated concept art, Johns breaks down the character's origin and skillset, and it sounds like the fans will be getting a semi-faithful version of the character; football hero, brutal accident, pops turns him into a cyborg - but so far no mention of S.T.A.R. Labs. The powers are all there, though; "Hes online 24/7. He doesnt sleep. He just takes in data". Yep, sounds like Cyborg. Fisher also chimes in with his two cents on what the draw of Cyborg actually is;
"He is a technopath, which means he can just interface seamlessly with anything technological. His greatest weakness is actually trying not to succumb to the technology. Trying to stay human."
Johns seems to be fairly confident in Cyborg's status as a bonafide Justice Leaguer worthy of inclusion into the DC Cinematic Universe ("he's an icon now, just like the rest of them"... sure, Geoff), but is there really anyone out there who wouldn't rather see Martian Manhunter on the team instead? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6QKf4xZqBs&feature=youtu.be
