Otis Beatty[2] is the commander of Lex Luthor's security force.
Personality[]
As the head of Lex Luthor's security detail, Otis's top priority is his boss's safety. He is ready to take action at any time and will diligently execute all of Luthor's commands.[3]
Physical appearance[]
Otis is a middle-aged Caucasian male with an average build and height. He is fashioned in the standard LexCorp security uniform. However, as security commander, he does not wear the typical tactical headgear. Instead, Otis sports a pair of dark sunglasses and a black cap with the company's name embroidered on the front panel.
After Luthor's office exploded by a rocket launcher, Otis called Luthor to know if he was alright. He was ordered to kill the culprit. Otis went along with the security at the rooftop on the other side, but discovered that the perpetrator already left. When Speedy threatened Luthor with a detonation cord, Otis arrived with the other security officers and took aim at Speedy. Otis asked for permission from Luthor, to take him out, the latter told him to hold his position.[3]
Lex Luthor was discussing Perdita Vladek's rescue with Mercy and Otis, when Luthor suddenly disappeared. Otis and Mercy searched frantically for him, until he returned moments later, shaken by his brief abduction by the Justice League.[6]
Otis shares his name with Luthor's assistant from Richard Donner's Superman and Superman II, played by Ned Beatty. His speach mannerisms are also similar to Ned Beatty's Otis. This is his first animated appearance.
