In the New 52, Kal-El is far younger than the original Earth-Two version and only a little older than the mainstream Superman. His aged foster parents both survive to the present unlike that of the current mainstream Superman. He was also married to Lois Lane but she was killed. Superman was seemingly killed alongside Batman and Wonder Woman while fighting off an invasion from the planet Apokolips led by Steppenwolf. A supposedly resurrected Superman later appeared, having allied himself with Darkseid's forces. He is defeated by the remaining heroes of this world. While he was dying, it was revealed he was not the actual Superman but a Bizarro-like creation. In Earth 2: World's End, Superman himself was preserved and somehow revived by DeSaad, who was using him as genetic source for Kryptonian clones for five years. He was eventually found and rescued by the new Wonders, who took him to safety. The extraction of DNA from his body after so many years corrupted him, leaving him powerless. He later decided to sacrifice himself once again, placing an end to the Parademon factories, saving untold millions across the planet. He was finally buried by his cousin and successor and the symbol from his uniform would from then on be worn by Kara in remembrance.

Val-Zod, is a Kryptonian, a pacifist refusing to openly fight against the forces of Darkseid occupying his Earth. Becoming the last of his House after his parents' execution by Krypton's court, Val quickly made friends with fellow orphan Kara Zor-El. Moments before Krypton's destruction, he, Kara, his foster brother and another child managed to escape and survive their planet's destruction. Through his trip, Val was educated by his parents' knowledge recorded on his capsule, teaching him that violence was the stupidest way to overcome issues. Falling on Earth, he was found by Terry Sloan who offered him asylum to "protect" him from the outside world, becoming a recluse. He was eventually found by the new Wonders. Suffering a panic attack after being freed, Lois tried to teach Val how to use his powers by finally going outdoors and after being enlightened by Dr. Fate, he decided to rise up and be Superman. He was also hiding beneath his hoodie, a uniform with the symbol of the House of El.

Batman sacrifices himself alongside Superman and Wonder Woman against the invasion forces of Apokolips. His father, Thomas Wayne, who is revealed as being still alive, has succeeded his late son as the new Batman, using the drug Miraclo (and later Venom) to give him more strength. It has been revealed, that Bruce discovered that Thomas was alive and after a heated confrontation wherein Bruce learned the whole truth about his father's sordid past, he disassociates himself with Thomas. When Earth was threatened by Steppenwolf, Thomas traveled to the World Army's Arkham Command Center to free certain prisoners from the facility, releasing Aquawoman and James Olsen from their stasis cells to join his resistance. He also discovered the Joker among the prisoners and killed him. Thomas would eventually be united with his granddaughter Helena, who was now going under the identity of the Huntress. In Convergence #3, Thomas, who has run out of his drug, is killed by various enemies of Batman from multiple timelines, while saving Dick Grayson.

He receives his "superspeed" from Mercury, a dying Olympian god who sees bravery in Jay, and is also the last god to fall following a war with Apokolips. Jay escapes a World Army Helicopter that sees the event as Mercury dies and tells Jay to run. He saves a couple from Apokorats, saying he will do it in 'a Flash', the man then mentions he heard the hero say something. While testing out his speed, he was confronted by Hawkgirl who had been expecting him. Jay and Hawkgirl soon discovered that the planet was being overtaken by a force called The Grey, and they journeyed to Washington, DC to put a stop to its avatar, Solomon Grundy. They defeated him with the help of the Green Lantern and The Atom. Unfortunately, Garrick's conflict with The Atom, his alliance with Hawkgirl, and his status as a metahuman made him an enemy of the World Army. A team of soldiers were sent Jay's mother's home to apprehend him but they escaped capture. He then joins the rest of the heroes to fight against Apokolips. In Earth 2: World's End, Jay is one of the heroes and civilians who immigrate from Earth 2 to their new home.

The grief-stricken Scott is then told that he will be given the power to avenge his love and protect the world. The flame creates a costume for him, and molds Sam's engagement ring into a power ring with which Scott can harness his power. Reborn as the Green Lantern, Scott proceeds to help the other survivors and swears vengeance for Sam.

Going AWOL, nothing is known of his actions from then on, except that he was apparently preparing for the onset of a new age of wonders. When Michael Holt, a superhero from another world, landed in Manhattan, Sloan was there to kidnap him to prevent his vision from coming through. After Apokolips' second invasion, Sloan immigrated, along with the rest of the heroes and civilians, from Earth 2 to their new home.

Al eventually defeated Grundy, with the help of the other heroes. Al's next appearance was in Dherain's inland steppes with Sandman and Red Arrow to deal with the parademon forces protecting its borders and they were soon joined by the Wonders of the World. During Apokolips' second invasion, and while helping evacuate as many World Army soldiers from their outposts as he could, a Superman clone working for Darkseid severed Al's right arm with his heat vision and used it to fell him to the ground before flying off. Al spent most of his time in a medically induced coma, and was awakened to perform one last mission. Using his size altering abilities he was dropped down a small hole and expanded to create a cavern to house the last remaining survivors of Earth 2, at the expense of his own life. As a token of gratitude, the people of Earth 2 named it Atom's Haven.

In the New 52, Henry Heywood Jr. was born in the Philippines and suffered from a rare birth defect that would have caused his bones to crumble before he was eighteen. He was saved from his affliction by his scientist father Henry Sr. who used a special metal alloy to make his bones stronger by binding with his DNA; however, it replaced the bones and some of his vital organs entirely, while imbuing him with super-strength and a mental control over machinery. Henry's father tried to turn in his work to the World Army, but he and Henry, Jr. were attacked by Apokolips's forces. Rather than have his work taken by the Parademons, Henry, Sr. took his own life and destroyed his documents. After the Apokolips War ended, Henry Jr. joined the World Army and took the code-name "Captain Steel". Captain Steel was sent on a mission to Rio de Janeiro to enter one of the fire pits left by the war, but something went wrong and Heywood left the pit after 35 hours, warning the people to close the pit before the Red Lantern got out, as she intended to kill the world. Because of Henry's durability, he has lost touch with his humanity causing him to make emotionless choices and react coldly. During Apokolips' second invasion, Henry defends Earth 2 from the Parademons, along with the rest of the agents of World's Army. He is later seen surveying the colony, known as Atom's heaven with Commander Sato and they talk about the relative peace of the underground refuge compared to the war on the surface.

He later attacks Washington DC to get Alan's attention. Flash, Hawkgirl, and Green Lantern fight him, but Atom brings him down temporarily by jumping onto him at giant size. The battle continues until Scott once again exiles Grundy to the moon where neither he nor the "Grey" can do any damage. During Apokolips' second invasion, the Parliament of Elements reach the conclusion that all the Avatars, including Grundy, must combine their power into one source to overcome the strength of the Deathspawn, Darkseid's monstrous child and save Earth 2, so Green Lantern is chosen to be the last remaining Avatar.

After her father's death, Jonni learned about the story of a statue her he possessed, which was found in a South American country and given to Jim by a man he himself had put in jail. She eventually retrieved the statue from a repair shop where it had ended up. Jonni inadvertently released the energy of the statue, freeing the creature called Thunderbolt. Jonni apparently had mental control over the Thunderbolt creature, though she herself was rendered unconscious when it was active. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Jonni's history was slightly retconned, so she became a native of the main Earth.

In the New 52, Jonni Thunder was one of the prisoners at Arkham Base. They were all released by John Constantine of Prime Earth, in order to help him return to his Earth. The group then arrive at the Chicago World Army refugee stronghold whereupon they witness Barbara Grayson's death and the group slaughter the men and board the train, and whilst the train begins to depart Richard Grayson hands his son over to Jonni. Upon their arrival at Atom's Haven, Brainwave tells Todd and Jonni of his plan to entrap the minds of the refugee-seekers to better enable their transition into the space ship and they agree to assist him with this. Jonni finds Todd, Ted Grant and Richard Grayson about to fight and stops them, telling Rice that it's only fair to let him know about his son and the two inform Grayson and Grant of Brainwave's plan. Obsidian tells the two to follow him through the tunnels to find King, Jr. When they find him, Brainwave takes control of Jonni and Obsidian's minds leaving them powerless to stop him from nearly killing Grayson until Batman and Huntress rend him unconscious and free their minds. Jonni later fought against the forces of Apokolips, trying to protect Atom's Heaven.

• Following 52, another version of the character appeared. He is a member of the Justice Society of America and that he is searching for two of his missing allies, Superman and Power Girl.

In the New 52, Rice was one of the prisoners at Arkham Base. They were all released by John Constantine of Prime Earth, in order to help him return to his Earth. This version is depicted as an African-American and is not related with Alan Scott. One of his fellow prisoners, Karn, who was also freed by Constantine, refused to work alongside Todd due to the fact that he is black but he was immediately shot dead by John. Upon their arrival at Atom's Haven, Brainwave tells Todd and Jonni of his plan to entrap the minds of the refugee-seekers to better enable their transition into the space ship and they agree to assist him with this. Jonni finds Todd, Ted Grant and Richard Grayson about to fight and stops them, telling Rice that it's only fair to let him know about his son and the two inform Grayson and Grant of Brainwave's plan. Obsidian tells the two to follow him through the tunnels to find King, Jr. When they find him, Brainwave takes control of Jonni and Obsidian's minds leaving them powerless to stop him from nearly killing Grayson until Batman and Huntress rend him unconscious and free their minds. Obsidian later dies, during Apokolips' second invasion.

King, Jr. is the son of the criminal Brain Wave and the superheroine Gimmick Girl. He would remain mostly hidden from the condemnation of his famous parents until he attained early adulthood and sought to actively pursue an active crime-fighting career in some measure to atone for his father's past deeds. He later joined the group called Infinity, Inc., which was formed by his uncle, Sylvester Pemberton, the original Star-Spangled Kid. In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so King Jr.'s history was slightly retconned, so he became a native of the main Earth.

In the New 52, Henry King, Jr. was one of the prisoners at Arkham Base. They were all released by John Constantine of Prime Earth, in order to help him return to his Earth. Soon after their arrival at Atom's Haven Brainwave begins to enslave the minds of the refugee-seekers to better enable their transition into the space ship he had acquired and the others assist him with his plan. He then brought all of those he controlled before him to board his shuttle; unbeknownst to him Richard and Ted Grant were also within the crowd. Upon discovering Richard, and subsequently his innate resistance to his mental powers, King, Jr. takes control of his compatriots and Ted Grant forcing him to level his gun at Richard. At the very last second Batman and Huntress arrive and knock him unconscious, thereby releasing the minds of those he controlled leaving them to descend into a frenzy.

• In Earth 2 Annual #1, a duo of characters, a father and son named Henri Roy, Sr. and Jr. appeared, as a presumed revamped and renamed version of Brainwave. Sr. is a weapons dealer of illegal hardware from Apokolips, who was hunted by the World Army. He was defeated by the combined efforts of Atom and Batman as well as his son Henri Jr., who worked with the World Army, sending them information about his father's whereabouts. After his father's arrest, Henri, Jr. decided to join Sonia Sato's Hero Initiative. Terry Sloan, who was in charge of the scientific aspect of the program wanted to study him because of his abnormal migraines. Because the character who is later introduced in Earth 2: World's End #8, is identified as Junior and first appears in a World Army base, it is possible that Henry Roy, Jr. and Henry King, Jr. are the same person, and because of the change of writers the character's name was mistaken.

In the New 52, Ted Grant appears as a boxer living in the same in the World Army refugee camp as Dick and Barbara Grayson during Darkseid's second invasion of Earth. After Barbara's death, Ted trains Dick in fighting techniques and self-defense, and joins him on a mission to recover his lost son.

In the New 52, the World Army, under the Red Files program, contracted an inventor named Jim Lockhart to build a "Red Torpedo" (submarine) that will be able to withstand the heat of one of the flaming pits in Rio de Janeiro as it is the only place where life has been able to flourish near one. Captain Steel meets with Lockhart and then he gets in the Red Torpedo, plummeting deep into the fire pit. Thirty-five hours later, a panicked Jim Lockhart reports to Amar Khan that someone is emerging from the fire pit, but it takes some time before he can identify the figure. It is a clearly injured and shaken Captain Steel, who has been separated from the Red Torpedo.

Marcie Cooper was the granddaughter of Dan Richards, the original Manhunter. As a teenager, she was recruited to join the Manhunters, the alien organization which was secretly attempting to dominate the Earth. Appealing to Cooper's greed, the Manhunters got her a job working alongside Molly Mayne, at KGLX radio, a position she used to enable her to get to know members of Infinity, Inc. and infiltrate the group's circle of friends. When the Manhunters launched their offensive against Earth, Cooper used Mayne's illusion casting glasses to become the new Harlequin and attack Infinity Inc, also attempting to murder her own grandfather along the way.

In Crisis on Infinite Earths Earth-Two was merged into New Earth so Paul's history was slightly retconned, so he became a native of the main Earth.

• Another character named Paul Kirk, also a native of Earth 2, existed before the one mentioned above. He was a private detective who operated during the 1940s.
