Dufus was kept under observation at Central City's Breedmore Mental Hospital until he attracted the attention of Flash's Rogues Gallery. The Rogues freed Sir and outfitted him with high-tech armor provided by the Monitor. The armor’s helmet used “telepathic noise” designed to cloud the user’s mind and make them pliable to suggestion. Taking advantage of this, the villains convinced him that he was a member of their Rogues Gallery named Big Sir, and the lot of them had just been beat up by Flash II. To further enrage Big Sir, they claimed that Flash had killed a small mouse (Sir’s loved mice above anything else in life). Big Sir went berserk and stormed off to find Flash. (Flash v.1 #338-342)
In the ensuing fight, Big Sir beat Flash half to death. The next time they met, Big Sir was subdued and taken to Gorilla City.

After the Dominators' gene bomb went off, a government agency gained interest in the number of people with the meta-gene; they were eager to discover if they could create heroes on demand. To this end, they kidnapped a single meta man with no living relatives, a traveling salesman named Richard Redditch. They experimented on him and created a powerful meta who could enter and control any form of electrical technology. Unfortunately, Redditch was also a serial killer. He destroyed the government lab and went on a killing spree using his newfound powers. The Specter tried unsuccessfully to stop Raddich , who would always find a new electrical escape.

In the meantime, Portland police dectective Jason Praxis was closing in on this serial killer. At some point, Praxis' neice fell prey to Redditch and Praxis himself aqcuired telepathy and telekinesis. Eventually, the Specter was able to cut off any other electrical escape, so Redditch jumped into Praxis. Praxis was already a kind of sentient "machine" himself, and he was able to keep Redditch in check and use the powers himself.

Jason left the force and was recruited by Booster Gold to join Claire Montgomery's first Conglomerate. This experience was frustrating for the young hero, and he returned to police work. He soon discovered the trail of Dexter DeFarge, a magician who sought to unleash the demon Ghast on Earth. DeFarge left a trail of bodies which Praxis and his partner, Deena Walker, followed. (One of DeFarge's four victims was Darren Hawkes, an actor-turned-philanthropist who played the Emerald Archer in 1941.) Because of some unexplained caveat, Praxis preferred not to use his powers, but was forced to do so in the battle against DeFarge. This turned him into a being of pure mental energy. The Justice League and Deena were able to bring him down from this godlike state. It was suggested that his power was from the Lords of Order, but his complete origin was never revealed.

THE YAZZ of Yazz. The Yazz is the sole survivor of his race, the Yazzes (its gender is undetermined). This dark-blue, pterodactyl-like alien was claimed by the Overmaster when the tyrant exterminated their planet. When the JLA began using the Overmaster's ship for its headquarters, the Yazz quickly became their "administrative assistant." By nature, the Yazz is curious — an information gatherer. He took great interest in the anthropological aspects of his position and made frequent good-hearted attempts to manipulate the JLA's personal lives. As a coordinator, he was superb; he could monitor multiple feeds of information at once. He remained with the JLA until Maxwell Lord (as Lord Havoc) sent the Refuge tumbling through space where it was captured by the bounty hunter, Flicker. When Flicker was subdued, the Yazz and other alien survivors decided to appropriate Flicker's ship. They reasoned that the Overmaster's ship was too unpredictable. They are currently at large in space. Although his death was not depiected, the Yazz was showin among those with memorial statues in 52 #24. 1st app: Justice League America #95
