Historic Hooded Hour Humanoids

Many were the Masters of the Moment in the Multiverse. And yet, our four Hooded heroes and hindrances bore remarkable similarities to one another. Each tried to twist time, sequester each second, hijack each hour.

In Earth-One’s reality, there were two diametric dichotomies who each manipulated moments, one for evil and one for good. Destiny and Time Trapper on the surface proved identical, each clad in purple ropes with hoods masking their their facial features and cloaks enveloping their form. Each carried hourglasses, each sought to mold the futures of mankind as they saw fit, one to endless humanity and one to protect it. Each being opposed Superman with his Justice League of America allies, who opposed those enigmatic entities' agenda yet never could truly contain him. 

Destiny prevented Superman from saving citizens of Metropolis from a runaway bulldozer, causing them to save themselves instead and control their own future. Time Trapper prevented a younger Superman, Superboy, along with his 30th century teammates in the Legion of Super-Heroes from piercing the time barrier 30 years in their future using his "Iron Curtain of Time".

In Earth-Two’s reality, there also was a Destiny and a variant of the Time Trapper, with the former a purple business suit clad vagrant and the latter being a purple robe clad wanderer. While the former steered clear of most metahimans of his world, the latter on occasion interacted with Superman and the Justice Society of America. Destiny displayed self-sacrifice by helping others, while faux-Time Trapper showed selfishness. 

Destiny-One primarily used Prof Davis and his fellow Challengers of the Unknown the advance his purposes, while Destiny-Two had behind the scenes gifted Rex “Hourman” Tyler with the ability to develope probability predicting software in his Crime-Caster to help he and his teammates in the Justice Society fight lawlnessness. While it was suspected that Time Trapper was a future version of one of his mortal foes from the Legion of Super-Heroes, his Earth-Two counterpart was revealed to be a clone of a Law’s Legionnaires member.

Interestingly, Destiny expressed unease at the unpredictability of the Challengers while begrudgingly working with them behind the scenes. Hourman opposed the synthetic copies of Destiny created by the sinister scientist T.O. Morrow, himself a master of time who fabricated a small army of purple hooded "DestinyOids". And just as Earth-One Time Trapper ferociously faced his former self, the Legionnaire named Cosmic Boy, so too the Earth-Two Time Trapper battled the Legionnaire he was cloned from, Sir Justin aka the Shining Knight... then later impersonating him to return to an ancient Camelot  conquered by Vandal Savage after which this faux-Knight faded from history.
