Warren McGinnis a research scientist at Wayne-Powers, is the father of Terry and Mathew McGinnis and ex-husband of Mary McGinnis. After Warren divorced Mary, Terry moved with his father, while Matt went with his mother. This separation created problems with the family, and caused an emotional trauma to young Terry as he ran away from home and join into a street gang. Eventually, he was caught shoplifting, and was spent three months in juvenile hall. Afterwards, family life improved a little, with Warren spending more time with his sons. Warren was murdered by Derek Powers and Mr. Fixx after he discovered his employers were creating biological weapons for a rogue nation, Kasnia. Terry moved in with his mother and brother. Warren's death led Terry to an emotional breakdown, even though Mary tried her best to comfort her son.

• It should be noted that Warren is not the biological father of Terry though he did raise him. The Justice League Unlimited episode Epilogue revealed that Terry was Bruce Wayne's biological son. Government agent Amanda Waller, believing that the world needed a Batman, had arranged for Warren McGinnis' DNA to be overwritten by Bruce's genetic material by means of a fake flu shot. Since Warren McGinnis continued to carry Bruce Wayne's genetic material after Terry's conception, Matt is also the biological child of Bruce Wayne.
