The Annihilist was an internationally wanted terrorist and enemy of Black Lightning.
History
The Annihilist was born in Suicide Slum. He was a killer with brains, and quickly developed an MO - take hostages, make demands. Usually it was money, the release of other terrorists, and safe passage to a rogue nation. On at least three continents, that ended in the death of the hostages, but he successfully pulled off a dozen heists all over the world. He used an army of robots that just like him as muscle and diversion.
He returned home and took hostages at Garfield High School. As the police arrived, he let most of them go, all but Lynn Stewart and her class. Black Lightning and Officer Corrigan snuck in and overpowered the robots and the terrorist, leading to his arrest.
