Editing Spectre (section)

==Supers==
The Spectre of DC Comics is a slain policeman who has been bonded to the embodiment of God’s vengeance that is tasked to punish the wicked with horrific deaths or far worse (since for some reason the Silver Age’s Comics Code Authority had a problem with death but not turning people into a fully aware inanimate object for eternity). Being an agent of Capital G God makes him perhaps the ultimate example of a hero so massively OP he’s difficult to write a compelling story for. The nearest thing he has to a weakness is being subject to brainwashing by wielders of divine artifacts and extremely powerful magic users (obviously far less common than kryptonite), which was made up during the 1970s to explain why he didn’t just kill the entire Axis leadership in a blink of an eye. As such he has been relegated to a plot device, rather than a main character, for most of his existence, despite being a very old part of the DC Universe (first appearance in 1940).

The Mayfair Games DC RPG gives him stats in ''Who's Who in the DC Universe #2'' and regularlly uses him as an example of truely cosmic power throughout its many books. The DC license based [[Mutants & Masterminds]] books give him stats in in ''Heroes and Villains 2''
