HISTORY
A mysterious alien and herald of disaster, smoothly disguised as a businessman. Constantly smiling, the Advance Man is a ruthless manipulator and mercenary of great powers, with no room for empathy nor pity. Across the galaxy, he searches for suitable worlds for his employers to conquer. He is adaptable and takes advantage of all resources of the planet he targets.
On behalf of an alien conqueror named Plura, he arrived on Earth and, with the help of Hector Hammond, made everyone on the planet – including the heroes themselves – forgot the existence of the Justice League of America, which would pave the wave for a complete takeover of the planet. However, fragments of memories remained, and new, temporary 'Justice Leagues' were founded by the amnesiac charter members. The heroes eventually defeated the threat, but the Advance Man escaped and remains at large.
