Background[edit | edit source]
Brother Eye is a satellite created by Batman to spy on other superheroes once he ceases to trust them. Brother Eye is corrupted by Maxwell Lord, a one-time patron of the Justice League who has also lost faith in superheroes. After Lord kills Ted Kord, the then-current Blue Beetle, and brainwashes Superman, Lord is killed by Wonder Woman. Lord's death causes Brother Eye to go rogue and reveal its newfound sentience. Using a nano-virus, it begins transforming ordinary people into OMAC cyborgs. Jaime Reyes, the new Blue Beetle, is able to discover the satellite's cloaked location and it is ultimately shutdown by a strike team led by Batman. In its last moments, Brother Eye expresses to Batman that it is upset by its creator's betrayal.
A backup of Brother Eye's code is able to survive and creates several more OMACs in hopes that they will rebuild it.
