History

It is best known for its contributions to the automotive industry and for the establishment of Motown. It is also the birth place of Will Everett, a man who would go on to become one of the first African American costumed super-heroes, Amazing Man.

During World War II, the Ultra-Humanite manipulated time-lost members of the futuristic Infinity, Inc. team into attacking a tank factory under the belief that they were actually saving lives. During this incident, Jade and Obsidian first encountered their father Alan Scott, the Green Lantern. Believing that Alan was a threat to peace, they attacked him. Neither Alan nor Jade or Obsidian had any idea of their family connection to one another at this time.[1]

Shortly before the Crisis on Infinite Earths, Aquaman established the second incarnation of the Justice League of America and operated out of a compound facility owned by Hank Heywood III, also known as Steel.[2] The Justice League abandoned this facility shortly before disbanding as a team altogether.

In recent years, Detroit has become the home city of the most recent man to bear the mantle of Firestorm – Jason Rusch.

Currently, Green Lantern Corps member John Stewart has taken up residence in Detroit.[3]
