Yup Cyborg Is The Third Mother Box In Justice League

Yup, Cyborg Is The Third Mother Box In ‘Justice League’

The Cyborg Mother Box connection was confirmed in the latest issue of Total Film (via Heroic Hollywood). To back up a bit, Mother Boxes are strange but immensely powerful devices that come from the planet Apokolips, which in the comics is ruled by Darkseid. Justice League villain Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds) also hails from the planet, and serves as a military leader. The Mother Boxes are apparently the MacGuffins that Justice League will revolve around, so they’ll play a huge role in the plot.

Cyborg is the third Mother Box, the one designated for the humans. In Batman v Superman, we saw a severely mutilated Victor Stone propped up on what looked like a giant circuit board inside S.T.A.R. Labs. His dad, Dr. Silas Stone, is conducting experiments to try and save his son. At one point, he tests out a mysterious device called “U.S. Gov Object 6-19-82,” which comes apart and reassembles itself as Victor’s new body. Here’s a screenshot of the scene in question (via ComicBook.com). The Mother Box is that glowing cube in the bottom left-hand corner.
