'''Amazo''' is a [[supervillain]] appearing in [[American comic book]]s published by [[DC Comics]]. The character was created by [[Gardner Fox]] and [[Mike Sekowsky]] and first appeared in ''[[The Brave and the Bold]]'' #30 (June 1960) as an adversary of the [[Justice League of America]].<ref>{{cite book | last =Rovin | first =Jeff |title =The Encyclopedia of Supervillains | publisher =Facts on File | date =1987 | location =New York | isbn = 0-8160-1356-X | pages=4–5}}</ref> Since debuting during the [[Silver Age of Comic Books]], the character has appeared in comic books and other DC Comics-related products, including [[animated]] [[television series]], [[trading card]]s and [[video games]]. Traditionally, Amazo is an [[Android (robot)|android]] created by the villain scientist '''[[Professor Ivo]]''' and gifted with technology that allows him to mimic the abilities and powers of superheroes he fights (usually the [[Justice League]]), as well as make copies of their weapons (though these copies are less powerful than the originals). His default powers are often those of [[Flash (DC Comics character)|Flash]], [[Aquaman]], [[Martian Manhunter]], [[Wonder Woman]], and [[Green Lantern]] (the Justice League founding members that he first fought). He is similar and often compared with the later created Marvel android villain [[Super-Adaptoid]] (introduced 1966).

In the ''[[The New 52|New 52]]'' timeline of DC Comics, Amazo begins as the A-Maze Operating System and then becomes an android capable of duplicating superhuman powers. Later on, a sentient '''Amazo Virus''' infects research scientist '''Armen Ikarus''' and takes over his mind. With Ikarus as a host, the Amazo Virus infects other people, granting them super-powers and controlling their minds before they die within 24 hours.

Amazo has been substantially adapted into media outside comics. [[Robert Picardo]], [[Peter MacNicol]], [[Thomas Lennon]], and [[Nolan North]], among others, have voiced the character in animated television series and films. Amazo also appears in the live-action [[Arrowverse]] crossover event "[[Elseworlds (Arrowverse)|Elseworlds]]".

==Publication history==
Amazo first appeared in a one-off story in ''The Brave and the Bold'' #30 (June 1960)<ref>{{cite book |last1=Cowsill |first1=Alan |last2=Irvine |first2=Alex |last3=Manning |first3=Matthew K. |last4=McAvennie |first4=Michael |last5=Wallace |first5=Daniel |title=DC Comics Year By Year: A Visual Chronicle |date=2019 |publisher=DK Publishing |isbn=978-1-4654-8578-6 |page=94}}</ref> and returned as an opponent of the [[Justice League of America]] in ''Justice League of America'' #27 (May 1964) and #112 (August 1974), plus a briefer appearance in #65 when another antagonist weaponized Amazo and other items from the JLA trophy room. Other significant issues included an encounter with a depowered [[Superman]] in ''[[Action Comics]]'' #480-483 (February – May 1978), and in ''Justice League of America'' #191 (June 1981) and #241-243 (August – October 1985). Amazo also battles a fully powered Superman in ''Superman Special'' #3 (1985).

A different Amazo model featured in ''[[Justice League Quarterly]]'' #12 (Fall 1993) and battled the hero [[Aztek (comics)|Aztek]] in ''Aztek: The Ultimate Man'' #10 (May 1997) before being destroyed in ''[[Resurrection Man (comics)|Resurrection Man]]'' #2 (June 1997). An advanced version debuted in a one-off story in ''[[JLA (comic book)|JLA]]'' #27 (March 1999), while another appeared in the [[Limited series (comics)|limited series]] ''[[Hourman (android)|Hourman]]'', specifically issues #1, #5-7, #17, and #19-21 (April 1999 – December 2000).

Amazo's origin is revealed in ''Secret Origins of Super-Villains 80-Page Giant'' #1 (December 1999). Another version is discovered to be part of a weapons shipment in ''[[Batman (comic book)|Batman]]'' #636-637 (March – April 2005) and during the ''[[Villains United]]'' storyline in ''[[Firestorm (comics)|Firestorm]]'' vol. 2 #14-16 (August – October 2005), ''Villains United'' #5-6 (November – December 2005), and the ''Villains United: Infinite Crisis Special'' (June 2006).

Amazo's consciousness returned in ''Justice League of America'' #1-5 (October 2006 – March 2007), planted in the body of fellow android the [[Red Tornado]]. Ivo also created Amazo's "offspring" in ''JLA Classified'' #37-41 (June – October 2007). A story continuing the first Red Tornado storyline featured in ''Justice League of America'' vol. 2 #21-23 (July – September 2008).

Writer [[Mike Conroy (writer)|Mike Conroy]] noted: "Amazo was a persistent thorn in the JLA's side... although his programming and own sentience have displayed no ambition towards world conquest... His very existence is a hazard to all of humanity".<ref>{{Cite book | last=Conroy | first=Mike | author-link=Mike Conroy (writer) | title=500 Comic Book Villains | publisher=[[Barron's Educational Series]] | date=October 2004 | isbn=978-0-7641-2908-7}}</ref>

==Fictional character biography==
===Modern Age===
The android Amazo was created by [[Professor Ivo|Professor Anthony Ivo]], a scientist with expertise in multiple fields who is obsessed with [[immortality]].<ref name=Guide>{{cite book |last1=Cowsill |first1=Alan |last2=Irvine |first2=Alex |last3=Korte |first3=Steve |last4=Manning |first4=Matt |last5=Wiacek |first5=Win |last6=Wilson |first6=Sven |title=The DC Comics Encyclopedia: The Definitive Guide to the Characters of the DC Universe |date=2016 |publisher=DK Publishing |isbn=978-1-4654-5357-0 |page=12}}</ref> The original Justice League of America ([[Hal Jordan|Green Lantern]], [[Flash (Barry Allen)|Flash]], [[Aquaman]], [[Wonder Woman]], and the [[Martian Manhunter]]) discover their powers are being drained and somehow then being used by a thief who is after animals known to have long lifespans. While attempting to discover the perpetrator, the League is confronted and defeated by Amazo, who has duplicated their powers using Ivo's "absorption cell" technology.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Greenberger |first1=Robert |last2=Pasko |first2=Martin |title=The Essential Superman Encyclopedia |date=2010 |publisher=Del Rey |isbn=978-0-345-50108-0 |pages=8–9}}</ref> Amazo brings the team to Ivo, who reveals he has created a means of extending his lifespan courtesy of the data obtained from studying the creatures Amazo captured. The League then defeats Ivo and the android. Ivo's immortality results in his body becoming monstrous in form, and the android is stored in the League trophy room.<ref>''The Brave and the Bold'' #30 (July 1960)</ref>

The android is temporarily re-activated twice to assist the League in regaining lost abilities.<ref>''Justice League of America'' #27 (May 1964)</ref><ref>''Justice League of America'' #111-112 (June – August 1974)</ref> When red sun radiation reaches Earth, Amazo reactivates and engages in an extensive battle with [[Superman]] involving time-travel, only to be defeated before it can murder Ivo and the League.<ref>''[[Action Comics]]'' #480-483 (February – May 1978)</ref> Later, the [[Key (character)|Key]], having been shrunken in size, re-activates Amazo in a failed bid to return to normal. The League defeats Amazo, after which [[Zatanna]] restores the Key to his former state.<ref>''Justice League of America'' #191 (June 1981)</ref>

After the Justice League of America disbands and reforms as a small team of mostly new heroes based in Detroit, Ivo reactivates Amazo to attack this less experienced, "weaker" League. The android defeats all the new members but is finally stopped by Justice League founding members the Martian Manhunter and Aquaman.<ref>''Justice League of America'' #241-243 (August – October 1985)</ref>

A different Amazo model is later activated and battles the superhero team the Conglomerate.<ref>''Justice League Quarterly'' #12 (Fall 1993)</ref> This updated Amazo searches for Ivo and encounters the hero Aztek, who succeeds in reasoning with the android rather than overpowering it.<ref>''Aztek: The Ultimate Man'' #10 (May 1997)</ref> This Amazo model also briefly battles the [[Resurrection Man (comics)|Resurrection Man]] before finally being destroyed.<ref>''Resurrection Man'' #2 (June 1997)</ref> Before his destruction, the second model of Amazo is summoned into the future by the android hero [[Hourman (android)|Hourman]], who wishes to meet his "ancestor". This Amazo copies Hourman's time-warping Worlogog, becoming "Timazo" in the process. Timazo wreaks havoc with his new ability to manipulate time, but is defeated and returned to the past so his history can run its course.<ref>''[[Hourman (android)|Hourman]]'' #1 (April 1999)</ref> Another, similar model of Amazo later has several more encounters with Hourman.<ref>''Hourman'' #5-7 (August – October 1999), #17 (August 2000) and #19-21 (October – December 2000)</ref>

Another model of Amazo is activated that can wield multiple powers at once and is programmed to automatically upgrade its abilities to match those of all active Justice League members. Initially not understanding this upgrade, the Justice League calls in reserve members to help defeat Amazo, which only results in its power increasing. On the Atom's advice, Superman (active team chairman at the time) announces the League is officially disbanded. Programmed only to mimic the powers of active members, this Amazo is suddenly depowered and easily deactivated.<ref>''JLA'' #27 (March 1999)</ref> Years later, Batman and [[Nightwing]] discover a partially built Amazo android in a weapons shipment and destroy it.<ref>''Batman'' #636-637 (March – April 2005)</ref>

Another Amazo participates in a massive attack by a group of villains on the city of [[Metropolis (comics)|Metropolis]], but is destroyed by [[Black Adam]].<ref>''Villains United: Infinite Crisis Special'' (June 2006)</ref>

It is eventually revealed that after perfecting Amazo's absorption cells, Ivo combined this technology with human [[Egg cell|ova]] and [[DNA]] to create a "son" of Amazo who grows up as Frank Halloran, unaware of his heritage. Years later, Frank is a philosophy student dating a young woman named Sara when his powers are awakened prematurely. Rather than emulate his villainous "father", Frank hopes to be a hero called "[[Kid Amazo]]". Slowly becoming mentally unstable, Kid Amazo discovers Sara is Ivo's daughter and was instructed to monitor Frank by posing as a girlfriend. Kid Amazo goes on a rampage. Batman deduces Kid Amazo has not only the powers of the Leaguers but also their contrasting personality traits. This is later used to cause greater internal instability, destroying Kid Amazo.<ref>''JLA Classified'' #37-41 (June – October 2007)</ref>

Later, Ivo downloads Amazo's programming into the body of the Red Tornado, the android villain-turned-hero created by Professor [[T. O. Morrow|T.O. Morrow]], another enemy of the Justice League. The League battles an army of Red Tornado androids before discovering that the villain [[Solomon Grundy (character)|Solomon Grundy]] intends to transfer his mind into the original android Tornado's body. Although this plan is defeated, the Amazo programming asserts itself and attacks the League until member [[Vixen (comics)|Vixen]] destroys it.<ref>''Justice League of America'' vol. 2 #1-5 (October 2006 – March 2007)</ref> A new body is created to house Red Tornado's consciousness but the Amazo programming inhabits it instead, battling Justice League before he's defeated by being teleported into the [[gravity well]] of the red star [[Antares]].<ref>''Justice League of America'' vol. 2 #21-23 (July – September 2008)</ref>

===The New 52===
As part of [[The New 52]], the new origin story of the Justice League references the "A-Maze Operating System" and "B-Maze Operating System" designed by Anthony Ivo.<ref>''Justice League'' vol. 2 #4 (February 2012)</ref> The League later battles an android equipped with a corrupt version of this operating system.<ref>''Justice League'' vol. 2 #8 (June 2012)</ref>

During the ''[[Forever Evil]]'' storyline, the New 52 Amazo appears as a member of the Secret Society of Super Villains.<ref>''Forever Evil'' #1 (September 2013)</ref>

During the "Amazo Virus" storyline, a biotech pathogen is created based on the android's absorption cells. The first person to be infected by this virus is former Lexcorp research scientist '''Armen Ikarus''', whose mind becomes corrupted in the process and replaced by the virus's will. Now possessing power and driven to infect others, Ikarus's personality is replaced by the new Amazo. The Ikarus Amazo infects others, granting them super-powers based on desires and personality traits, but killing them within 24 hours. The Ikarus Amazo, able to enhance infected humans and control them through a "hive-mind" connection, is defeated by the Justice League. Young '''Reggie Meyer''' and his family are also affected. Influenced by technology from the original Amazo android, Reggie becomes the second Kid Amazo.<ref>''Super Sons'' #1</ref>

===DC Rebirth===
In 2016, DC Comics implemented another relaunch of its books called "[[DC Rebirth]]" which restored its continuity to a form much as it was prior to "The New 52". In the storyline ''Outbreak'', Amazo is one of the villains recruited by an A.I. named Genie, created by the daughter of computer technician James Palmer.<ref name="JL10">''Justice League'' vol. 3 #10 (February 2017)</ref> His technology cells are later hacked and he briefly joins the Justice League's side.<ref name="JL11">''Justice League'' vol. 3 #11 (March 2017)</ref>

Amazo later appeared as a member of the Cabal, alongside [[Per Degaton]], [[Doctor Psycho]], [[Queen Bee (comics)|Queen Bee]], and [[Hugo Strange]].<ref>''Plastic Man'' (vol. 5) #3. DC Comics.</ref> <ref>''Plastic Man'' vol. 5 #4. DC Comics.</ref> Amazo re-appeared in the pages of ''[[Superman/Batman#Batman/Superman:_World's_Finest_(2022–present)|Batman/Superman: World's Finest]]'' #16 with [[Metamorpho]] abilities labeled '''NewMazo''' with aide by [[Will Magnus|Dr. Will Magnus]] of the [[Metal Men]].

==Powers and abilities==
===Amazo (Android)===
Amazo is an advanced android built using Professor Anthony Ivo's "absorption cell" technology. This technology (later indicated to involve nanites) allows Amazo's cells to mimic the physical structure and energy output of organic beings he encounters, empowering him to mimic physical and energy-based abilities (such as the strength of [[Superman]], the speed of the [[The Flash|Flash]], or the fighting skill of [[Batman]]). Amazo's internal energy source provides power for these abilities, so it does not matter what source of power is used by the superhuman he is mimicking (such as Wonder Woman's speed being based on magical empowerment and Superman's speed being a result of Kryptonian cells fueled by solar radiation). After his first story, many Amazo models retain the powers of the first five founding Leaguers he met as a default power set, absorbing new abilities based on other Leaguers they encounter. The models are usually only able to access a single target's unique attributes at a time. Some models have internally possessed the powers of many Justice League members, not just founding members, in their internal database and can summon them at will, but again only utilizing one person's powers at a time.<ref>''The Brave and the Bold'' #30 (July 1 1960)</ref> Some later Amazo versions are upgraded to use and mimic multiple powers at once from any superhuman they come in contact with or anyone it identifies as a Justice League member.<ref>''JLA'' #27 (March 1999)</ref> Several Amazo models can create duplicates of weapons as well, such as the [[Power ring (DC Comics)|power ring]] of [[Green Lantern]], the metal mace of [[Hawkgirl]], or the lasso of [[Wonder Woman]]. These copied weapons are more limited in power than the original products.<ref>''Justice League of America'' #27, 65 & 112 (1960)</ref>

At times, Amazo is a simple minded android, capable of basic strategies and possessing average intelligence but with narrow focus. Some models of Amazo have demonstrated advanced analysis and tactics in battle, helping them maneuver to apply their stolen powers effectively to defeat opponents.<ref>''Justice League of America'' vol. 2 #22 (July 2008)</ref> In most incarnations, Amazo takes on a person's weaknesses simultaneously when mimicking their powers (as an example, becoming vulnerable to [[kryptonite]] radiation while using Superman abilities). Multiple stories have also indicated that his android body, designed to emulate the form and function of a human being, also possesses the pressure points and stress spots the average human body possesses.

===Amazo (Ikarus)===
Arman Ikarus is a former scientist and researcher at Lexcorp who is the first to be exposed to the '''Amazo Virus''' outbreak.<ref name="JL36">''Justice League'' vol. 2 #36 (January 2015)</ref> This version of Amazo is driven to infect others with the Amazo virus, causing them to develop psychoactive superhuman abilities based on inherent desires and characteristics before dying within 24 hours. The Ikarus Amazo could emulate technology and super-powers he encountered by crudely modifying his genetic structure and biological structure.<ref name="JL37">''Justice League'' vol. 2 #37 (February 2015)</ref> The Ikarus Amazo can remotely augment the physical abilities of anyone infected with the Amazo virus and influence their behavior through establishing a mental "hive-mind" connection.<ref name="JL39">''Justice League'' vol. 2 #39 (April 2015)</ref> Initially, Ikarus's body seemed to degenerate from the strain of the virus altering his biology, but later his form stabilized and evolved into the appearance of the classic Amazo android.

==Other versions==
A funny animal-inspired counterpart of Amazo called "'''Amazoo'''", a robotic chimera of a dozen different animal body parts and abilities, from "Earth-C-Minus" appears in ''[[Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew!]]'' #14-15.
