One of DC’s most high-profile man-made superhumans, Stone was reconstructed by his scientist father with enhanced strength and endurance, and an array of cybernetic functions such as a sonic canon.<\/p>\n

Best known as a member of the Teen Titans, Cyborg was reintroduced as a member of the Justice League in 2011’s New 52 relaunch and Variety reports a source’s claim that he’ll have “a much more significant role as Warner and DC develop more films related to the Justice League<\/strong><\/em> universe.”<\/p>\n
