The Thinker is just 25 years old, but his incredible brain power is sapping his body of its life force. As a result, he has the body of a seventy-year-old. He was promised, however, upon joining the Secret Society, that his body would be restored if he could deliver OMAC to the Crime Syndicate. In aid of this, he has used a three-dimensional hologram of Amanda Waller to recruit some of the world's more powerful heroes under the auspices of replacing the missing Justice League. He suckered Power Girl, Steel, and Warrant into joining a team he intended to destroy the Suicide Squad - the perfect distraction.
