Steppenwolf è un supercriminale di fantasia che compare nei fumetti americani pubblicati dalla DC Comics. Il personaggio è stato creato da Jack Kirby ed è apparso per la prima volta in New Gods #7 (febbraio 1972). Steppenwolf (che in tedesco significa “lupo della steppa”, o coyote) è uno dei Nuovi Dei, lo zio del supercriminale Darkseid e un membro dell'Élite di Darkseid.

Il personaggio ha debuttato in live-action nel film Zack Snyder's Justice League, interpretato da Ciarán Hinds.

Abilità : Steppenwolf is an immortal with vast superhuman strength, endurance and speed, capable of lifting about one hundred tons and jumping huge distances easily. Also, he has superhuman reflexes and a high degree of invulnerability, which increases with his battle armor and allows him to resist most physical and energetic attacks. He is an experienced military leader, having served as the head of Apokolips's armed forces, and when going into battle personally often commands units of the dog cavalry - warriors riding enormous dogs, known for the carnage and mass deaths he causes when he leads forces. Steppenwolf wields several weapons, including a cable-snare in which he can entrap opponents and from which he can fire lethal radion beams. His main weapon is his electro-axe. He is a master swordsman and a formidable hand-to-hand combatant forged in hundreds of battles.
