DC's Mother Boxes Fully Explained

DC Comics has a number of technological artifacts that are fundamentally important to understanding many of its greatest stories. Chief among them are the Mother Boxes. From their mythical origins to their incredible powers, here's everything you need to know about DC's Mother Boxes.

Before you can understand Mother Boxes, it's useful to take a detour to understand DC's New Gods. About 18 billion years ago, there was a world named GodWorld.

As the planet evolved, humanoid beings sprang forth and developed vastly powerful abilities over billions of years. Eventually, they became gods, aka the Old Gods. GodWorld fell into internal conflict between factions of gods, culminating in GodWorld's destruction and a massive wave of energy, the Godwave, spreading throughout the universe.

The remnants of GodWorld itself eventually turned into two distinct planets. On the one hand, there's the utopian New Genesis, ruled by the virtuous Highfather. On the other, there's the evil and dark Apokolips, where tyranny and war reign.

These planets become home to a new set of deities, the New Gods. The New Gods of New Genesis are, of course, generally wise and just. Those on Apokolips, who eventually come to be ruled by the tyrant Darkseid, are devoted to universal conquest and tyranny under his malevolent hand.

Each planet has developed considerably advanced science and technologies, but the most unique and complex inventions of the New Gods are the mysterious Mother Boxes, the sentient supercomputers that can do nearly anything.
