The A.I. Electrolords once conquered the Earth before being banished. Recently, there seems to be alot of robot insurgency and attempts to ressurect the A.I. Electrolords. What this means for the Legion only time will tell.
Lemnos and Terror Firma
» FIRST APPEARANCE: Legion of Super-Heroes vol. 5 #1 (Feb. 2005)
At a young age, Praetor Lemnos discovered he had the ability to erase memories. This led the down a path of crime and as an adult, he became a power broker. He manipulated powerful people and situations, then used his power to "erase himself" from others' memories. (Legion vol. 5 #6)
When the Legion formed, Lemnos was a champion of their mission... after all, they were all about upsetting the galactic order. But Lemnos was willing to take extreme measures to this end, even commit genocide. He assembled Terror Firma to start a war to bring about his "new order."
Lemnos' modus operandi necessitated total anonymity for himself, so he used this group of six teen mercenaries who possessed elemental super-powers:
- Elysion could manipulate the ground
- Gron was the brutish powerhouse
- Kynda could generate flames
- Phren possessed a powerful long tail
- Zepha controlled the winds
- A green-skinned boy controlled the water
When Terror Firma first attacked Rimworld 19, the Legionnaires managed to ward them off—but not for long. (Legion vol. 5 #5)
Their next attack was far more successful—and brutal. They destroyed the entire world of Orando, home of the Legionnaire Princess Projectra. Meanwhile Lemnos revealed himself to Brainiac 5 and reveals his power is to corrupt memory and has been manipulating forces against the Legion. Although Lemnos removed his memories of their meeting, a part of Brainy's mind would eventually recall it. (#6)
Lemnos taunted Brainiac 5 further by striking at his home world, Colu, next. There, Brainy met Lemnos himself; he had introduced a mental virus into Colu's populace, including Brainiac 5's mother. Here, Chameleon's powers passively detected Lemnos' presence and allowed the Legion to finally unveil him. (#7)
On Helegyn, Elysion was captured and taken to Legion headquarters, but Lemnos sent suicide bombers into the Legion plaza. The bombs were so powerful and numerous that Legion HQ collapsed — killing Dream Girl. (#9–10)
In their final offensive, the Legion discovered that Lemnos' forces were immense and numbered in the thousands. (#11) Another segment of "chosen" soldiers (including Terror Firma) numberd in the dozens. Legion turned the tables by seizing control of Terror Firma's transmatter gates and bringing down Elysion (by Atom Girl, who ventured inside his body then grew larger, and ripped him apart). (#12)
In the final battle, Lemnos' soldiers turned on him. Many had believed that his plans were altruistic and aligned with the Legion's. They were not prepared for all-out war or killing. These adherents were now rudderless, and a number of them teamed up with the Legionnaire Sun Boy, who saw the potential to redeem them. Lemnos was taken into Legion custody by Brainiac 5. (#13)
These young idealists were soon absorbed by a new group led by Mekt Ranzz, called the Wanderers.
