Dee (UE-50)

"I can't give you answers when you're not asking the right questions."

- Dee to Naomi McDuffie

Dee, better known as Dee, is a Thanagarian veteran, a resident of Port Oswego and the owner of his tattoo parlor.

Life on Earth
At some point, Dee fought in a war alongside Superman. He later arrived on Earth and began living a normal life in Oregon.

On March 14, 2004, the same day of Naomi McDuffie's adoption, Dee witnessed an unidentified flying object crashing in Port Oswego.

The Question
In 2022, Dee was one of the bystanders who saw a Superman-related stunt in the Town Square, his actions attracted the attention of Naomi McDuffie. Naomi soon approached Dee for answers, and he was able to tell her adoption date. This raised suspicion in Naomi while Dee claimed that he was the person who orchestrated the stunt, trying to dismiss Naomi's suspicions.

However, Naomi persisted in investigating the stunt and was attacked by Zumbado, whose shop had a newspaper article of the crash in 2004. Naomi then returned to Dee's tattoo shop and demanded answers. Dee emphasized that he could not give her any unless she asks the right questions before revealing his wings to her. Despite being in shock and confused, Naomi asked who Dee was, with him telling her that it was still the wrong question. Dee encouraged Naomi to ask the right question, with her asking him who she was.
