Thumb
Josiah transformed from Power Company #4, artist Tom Grummett.

Josiah Power was an esteemed lawyer until his metagene was triggered by the Dominators' Gene Bomb during the Invasion! event.[1] Following the untimely public activation of his metagene in the court room, Power was dismissed from his law firm. Opposed to the idea of becoming a superhero himself, Power founds the Power Company, a business of superheroes for hire structured like a law firm. Power lives in Marin County, California, with his life partner Rupert.[2]

Following The New 52 and DC Rebirth relaunches, Josiah Power is reintroduced in the third volume of Black Lightning (2025), where he appears as a metahuman rights advocate.[3]
