The original Dr. Imposible debuted in Brad Meltzer's Justice League as a villian of unknown origins, but with a similar semblance to Mr. Miracle; the second Dr. Impposible is earth 2 Jimmy Olsen, under a new alias. Both characters share an evident strong connection to the Fourth world.
Original Dr. Impossible
Doctor Impossible was a newcomer on the super-villain scene, and he kept his personal details closely guarded. He wore a dark coloured costume, which is similar in style to that of Mister Miracle, though his heritage as either a New God from Apokolips or New Genesis has yet to be confirmed. Doctor Impossible carries a computerized "Father Box" and teleports via a "hush tube" - both apparently based on Fourth World technologies of the Mother Box and Boom Tube.About a year after the Infinite Crisis, Doctor impossible emerged in the employ of Professor Ivo, gathering parts to be used in the construction of a robot body to house the consciousness of Solomon Grundy.
After stealing Red Tornado's body from the Metal Men and making off with the Parasite's arm, Doctor Impossible lost a fight against Green Lantern, Black Canary and Red Arrow.
Doctor Impossible next appeared with a team he had assembled to help him collect parts of an alien device that made it possible to view the Multiverse. He sent Chair and Tender Mercy to BlackHawk Island to collect one piece whilst Neon Black, Hunter and himself infiltrated the Justice League Satellite to acquire the last part.
