John Diggle is an A.R.G.U.S. agent in a reality where Superman is Earth's only superhero.

Before joining A.R.G.U.S. John worked with Oliver Queen, the Green Arrow.

John has worked with Superman multiple times in the past. He knows that Superman's secret identity is Clark Kent and is friendly with his wife Lois Lane.

General Sam Lane contacted John and asked him to deliver an A.R.G.U.S. red solar flare to Smallville, Kansas when Superman was kidnapped and brainwashed by Tal-Rho. John assumed the flare would be used to merely restrain Superman and was outraged when he learned Sam and John Henry Irons planned to use it to kill him. He argued that they owed Superman to explore every possibility to save him, and told John Henry that he hoped he would make the right decision. Ultimately John Henry was able to help Superman break his brainwashing without killing him.[1]

A year later, Diggle returned to Smallville and told John Henry that A.R.G.U.S. was investigating the murder of his counterpart on their Earth; and believed that Bruno Mannheim, the head of Intergang, was responsible.[2]
