Jericho is a member of the Divers, a species from a parallel dimension. He made his first appearance in 1945, emerging from a portal in the sky above California.

Since his appearance, Jericho has been at the center of several major incidents, often engaging in battles with other Divers. He has single-handedly defended Earth from various threats, most notably from his own kind. However, his methods and disregard for collateral damage have been a point of contention.

Jericho exhibits a dispassionate and calculated demeanor. He has shown an unwavering focus on his missions, often at the cost of significant collateral damage. This includes the death of astronaut Neil Armstrong during the moon landing. Jericho's motivations remain enigmatic, but it is clear he perceives the Divers as a threat to this dimension.

Jericho does not have a conventional criminal record, but his actions have resulted in significant loss of life and property. He operates outside any established legal framework and has proven resistant to DMC jurisdiction.

Jericho is not bound by any DMC regulations given his interdimensional status and unparalleled power. Attempts to engage or control him have been largely unsuccessful.

Maximum - Jericho's unprecedented power and the potential for immense collateral damage make him the apex threat. While he has defended Earth from several threats, his methods and disregard for human life are highly concerning.

Given Jericho's power and unpredictable nature, direct confrontation is deemed inadvisable. The DMC's current strategy is focused on surveillance, intelligence gathering, and maintaining open channels of communication. A specialized task force monitors his activities. Collaborative efforts with global powers and other metahuman entities are ongoing, seeking potential alliances or strategies for managing or mitigating the threat Jericho presents.
