** Doctor Fate is one of the most powerful superheroes in [=DC=] Universe -- a sorcerer who is basically an avatar of a god, with abilites that allow him to [[RealityWarper bend reality]], manipulate matter on molecular level or [[TimeTravel travel in time]], along with a stardard set of FlyingBrick powers like flight, SuperStrength or NighInvulnerability -- who accomplished feats like hurling planets into the sun, withstanding blows from the likes of Superman himself and defeating literal gods. In this movie, however, he only manages to slow down Black Adam, is totally reliant on his help in order to beat Sabbac, and his powers seem to be limited to illusion-casting, mind-reading and creating objects made of HardLight. Actually, the very fact that someone of Doctor Fate's power and status would in any way answer to Amanda Waller is mind-boggling in itself (only ''slightly'' less mind-boggling than a scenario where she'd recruit ''ComicBook/TheSpectre'' himself).
