List of Kingdom Come (comics) characters

The following is an extensive list of characters that appear in the 1996 DC Comics Elseworlds story Kingdom Come .

Protagonists

• Norman McCay : An elderly pastor who serves as the narrator. After Wesley Dodds' death, Norman unwillingly inherits his late friend's precognitive powers and is charged by the Spectre with deciding who will bear the guilt of the coming apocalypse. He was modeled after Norman Ross, the father of Kingdom Come artist Alex Ross.
• Spectre : The Agent of God's Wrath takes Norman through the events of a possible future to determine who is responsible for an impending apocalyptic event, but his "faculties are not what they once were" and he needs a human perspective to properly judge events. Norman succeeded in convincing him to try to see these events through his guide's human perspective and the two become close friends afterwards.

Superman's Justice League

Many of the members of the re-formed Justice League are either old characters in new forms or brand new adoptions of old names. Partial list:

• Superman : Leader of the League, the silver-templed Man of Steel is growing uneasy with the role of being a world leader during a time of extreme tension. His "S" chest symbol shield backdrop and belt are black rather than the original yellow as a sign of mourning not only because of Lois Lane's assassination by the Joker, but his own stance regarding the superhuman issue. Due to a lifetime of absorbing yellow-solar radiation, he is more powerful than ever, and has become resistant to kryptonite.
• Wonder Woman : Superman's lieutenant, she is slowly consumed by rage directed at the state of the world and her exile from Paradise Island. Her fellow Amazons have deemed her mission to bring peace to "man's world" a failure. At the conclusion, she starts a relationship with Superman and her royal station as Princess is restored.

When Superman goes into exile, the Flash remains active, using his lightning-speed to constantly and restlessly patrol and protect Keystone City. He is saved from the Gulag bombing by Jade's shields.
• Hawkman : Now a literal 'hawk man', he has become a guardian of nature, though also referred to as an ecological terrorist. The story does not specify which version of Hawkman this is, apart from "combining the spirit of the old with the otherworldly flesh of the new", which suggests he is Carter Hall in the body of the post-Zero Hour Thanagarian "Hawkgod". He is killed in the nuclear blast.

• Batman : Since his identity was made public, the Batman no longer hides behind the carefree facade of Bruce Wayne; as a result, Wayne Manor was destroyed by Two-Face and Bane. His age and lifetime of injuries force him to wear an exoskeleton at all times. His costume is an armored suit with a Xistera-like weapon and a flying belt. Batman has transformed Gotham City into a police state aided by his army of "Bat-Knights" patrolling the streets, controlled from the Batcave. His distrust of both Superman's League and Luthor's MLF leads him to form the Outsiders, feeling mankind should be able to make its own decisions and mistakes.
• Ted Kord : One of Batman's three lieutenants, now wearing a Blue Beetle armored battle suit powered by the mystical scarab that gave Dan Garret his powers.
• Oliver Queen : Batman's lieutenant, he has married his long-time love Dinah Lance, and the two had a daughter. His appearance is similar to that in The Dark Knight Returns .

Magog's Justice Battalion

Magog and his followers are violent vigilantes prone to dealing out "justice" in the form of death to anyone who commits a crime. Apart from Magog and Alloy, they all originate from Charlton Comics.

• Magog : Ironically referred to as the new 'Man of Tomorrow', he and Alloy were the only survivors of the Battalion, and at least partially responsible for the destruction of Kansas, for which Magog later seeks forgiveness. He is seen carrying injured heroes to Jade's protective shields. At the end of the novel, Magog lives on Paradise Island and is seen disciplining Swastika, having finally seen the need for self-restraint. In the novelization, he matures to the point of becoming a dean of students there. According to Alex Ross, Magog is named after a biblical character, represents the golden calf, the scar rounding his right blind eye is also symbolical, but most importantly Magog represents "everything we (Ross and Waid) hate in modern superhero design", being based on Marvel Comics' Cable, and his creator Rob Liefeld.
• Alloy is the combined form of the Metal Men and member of Magog's Justice Battalion. Along with Magog, he is the only survivor of the Kansas disaster. He later joins the Justice League. Alloy is melted by the U.N. nuclear strike.

• Question : Present at the metahuman bar alongside Rorschach before Superman's arrival.

Characters with heroic legacies

Some of the metahumans and human warriors involved are inheritors in one way or another from passed heroes. Not everybody amongst this new generation is willing to uphold the legacy resting on their shoulders:
