Biography

Arrival on Earth

Sometime after Supergirl's war against Lex Luthor concluded, the extra-dimensional being Mar Novu, for an unknown reason, brought Malefic to Earth. He then vowed to get revenge on his brother, J'onn J'onzz, for reasons unknown.[1]

At some point after his arrival on earth he disguised himself as a little girl and during this time he created a phantom zone projector to release Midnight, who was imprisoned many years ago by his brother.
