Sloth

Sloth slithered into DC's Modern Age in 2003, conjured by the powerhouse creative team of David S. Goyer, Geoff Johns, and Stephen Sadowski in the landmark JLA/JSA Secret Files & Origins #1 — a crossover event that brought together some of the DCU's greatest heroes. With a name drawn straight from the seven deadly sins, this villain carries an instantly evocative identity, and their appearances alongside heavyweights like Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and Kara Zor-L signal that Sloth operates at the highest stakes the DC Universe has to offer. Though the catalog footprint is compact, those appearances are concentrated in prestige Geoff Johns storytelling — Virtue and Vice chief among them — making each one count for collectors who love their villains with mythic weight and their crossovers done right.
