WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Superman: Son of Kal-El #2, on sale now from DC Comics.

As Jonathan Kent becomes the New Superman of the DC Universe, he is sure to make some powerful enemies, especially considering his desire to be an agent of real change. After donning a new costume gifted to him by his father, Jon engages in heroics that make him worthy of the name. Unfortunately, his actions have also made very powerful enemies out of a very dangerous nation seen previously in the Wildstorm universe.

Superman: Son of Kal-El #2 (by Tom Taylor, John Timms, Gabe Eltaeb and Dave Sharpe) sees Jon act on information provided by underground news network "The Truth" and save a boat full of refugees from the island nation of Gamorra. Although they would have drowned if not for the intervention of the new Superman, saving them will have dire consequences for the young Man of Steel, especially considering the history of the nation in the Wildstorm universe.

Gamorra was originally known as Parousia Island until it was conquered by the Gamorra brothers, who then renamed it after themselves. Under the rule of the dictator Kaizen Gamorra, who ruthlessly murdered his brothers to become the sole ruler, this isolated country turned into a major center for global terrorism.

The role Kaizen and Gamorra played in global terrorism drew the attention of the C.I.A., who abducted the dictator and replaced him with their agent, John Colt. Using plastic surgery to assume Kaizen's identity, Colt transformed the country from a terrorist hive to a world leader in cybernetic enhancement and genetic engineering.

However, Colt's rule proved to be just as bad as Kaizen's with the C.I.A. agent going insane and using Gamorra's advancements to create an army of murderous cyborgs. After Colt's death, the original Kaizen became ruler once again and resumed the country's reputation for terrorism. He even had similar ideas to his usurper, creating an army of genetically modified superhumans to carry out his horrifying plans. All of this led Kaizen and the island of Gamorra to come into conflict with the superhero team Stormwatch and their successor, the Authority.

Even though the history of Gamorra is different in the DC Universe, some things remain the same. While the WildStorm villain Henry Bendix is revealed as the country's leader in this issue, Kaizen was still previously the leader of the nation in the DCU. During the New 52, Team 7, which included members such as Black Canary, Deathstroke and Grifter, infiltrated Gamorra to confront Kaizen.

Superman Henry Bendix

The inclusion of Gamorra in this series is the latest instance of the WildStorm universe crossing over into the greater DCU. While WildC.A.T.s was teased to return in Batman: Urban Legends and Jon's father is assembling a new version of the Authority in Superman and the Authority, Gamorra's inclusion here is much larger than either of those instances. While those are individual characters and teams being influenced by the existing DCU, this is the opposite, with the history of WildStorm informing the DCU.

Considering the history of Gamorra in both the WildStorm and DC Universes, it's clear that Jon Kent has made a powerful enemy. If Henry Bendix wasn't bad enough, this isolated nation's experience in terrorism, genetics and cybernetics means the obstacles it could throw at the new Superman are entirely unpredictable, as well as potentially deadly for the young hero.
