Gumball

"You have to go now. You need your mom. But we'll still be friends. I'll be all right. I have people here to take care of me. And I wouldn't have found them without you."

- Ray Palmer to Gumball

An unnamed baby Dominator, nicknamed "Gumball" by Ray Palmer was a time-displaced creature stuck in 1988's Ivy Town. He was a target of the veteran NSA Agent Smith

Biography
"Gumball" was found by young Ray Palmer hiding in a pipe in 1988. Ray, known among the locals for saving stray animals, brought Gumball to his house at Ivy Town. Gumball's presence greatly affected Ray, making him shoplift sweets to feed the alien baby and skip school to spend more time with it. Meanwhile, the baby's mother, Dominator Queen has also arrived to Ivy Town, trying to locate her child and bring him back home. Ray later ran away from home together with Gumball, hiding in his playground, named after the legendary Camelot. Pretending to be Sir Galahad, Ray met with Zari Tomaz, who tried to explain that Gumball, being a Dominator, was dangerous. Ray refused to believe this, and tried to run away, but ended up captured by the NSA, along with Zari and Gumball. Gumball was then tortured by the NSA agents who ran experiments on him and also suppressed Gumball's powers, which was painful for the baby Dominator. After being located by the Atom, Gumball's restraints were removed, but as the group was about to escape, the NSA cornered them. Using his mind control powers, Gumball made Smith and the other agents abstain from shooting the escapees, and instead perform the "Good Morning" song from the musical "Singing in the Rain". Gumball was later carried over by Ray in a bysicle's basket, propelled to flight by Zari's Air Totem powers. They were then finally found by Dominator Queen, who happily took her baby back, after Gumball's tearful goodbye with his friend Ray Palmer.
