The Twins are albino metahuman criminals who have the ability to generate force fields.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Force Field generation: The Twins can create a force field together only when they achieve physical contact with their bodies (usually by grabbing each other's hand). They use the ability frequently to protect each other or imprison their attackers. They were able to move a depowered Clark up to the roof of the barn and pin him there, and to stop a speeding police car. Their force fields cannot be maintained for more than an hour.
The Twins are psychically linked and share the same thoughts at all times. Even their pain is shared so that when one twin is being hurt, the other twin feels the pain in the same place and in the same intensity.
Their power was also taken by Lex's 33.1, and given to at least two known super soldiers in Lex's service. The first known wielder of the force field ability is Wes Keenan and the second is an unnamed super soldier shown fighting Oliver and the Justice League.
Early life[]
Although most of the Twins' early life is unknown, at some point in their lives they were admitted into the Belle Reve Sanitarium.
It is also unknown how they gained their metahuman abilities.
Season Five[]
They were released by Tommy Lee to go after the powerless Clark Kent to have him steal Kryptonite serum from Level Three of LuthorCorp. They were later sent back to Belle Reve.
Notes[]
- It is possible that the Twins were later released by Checkmate (before the agency's destruction). In the episode Absolute Justice, Part 2, a conversation between Lois Lane and Clark Kent establishes that Checkmate has been secretly releasing all the bad guys (that fought the members of the Justice Society of America), and collecting them, by 2010.[1] In Charade, Checkmate is shown to have arranged for the life sentence of Ray Sacks (who had been put away by Clark and the Wonder Twins) to be overturned. One scene has Chloe Sullivan show Clark a list of other people, whose release has been arranged by Checkmate. Clark identifies the people on the list (which is not shown to the viewers) as people that he put away.[2] In Shield, Bette Sans Souci (who had been put away in 2009 by Clark Kent and Green Arrow) is shown to have been released from her incarceration, and joined the Suicide Squad.[3] In the episode Homecoming, Clark spots Greg Arkin (one of Clark's earliest foes) at their high school reunion, and identifies Greg as one of the people that he put away in high school (with Clark's panic at the sight of him indicating that Greg would have been unlikely to simply been released, having served whatever sentence he was given).[4] In Prophecy, Vordigan (who had been put in prison, through the combined effort of Clark and Green Arrow)[5] is shown to be out of prison.[6]
