Adam Strange was incarcerated at Arkham Asylum as one of the many who were suffering premonitions of The Centre's coming.
History
His attending psychiatrist was Leslie Thompkins, who managed to kept federal authorities from apprehending him.[1] When The Centre had made its appearance known, Strange was freed by Thompkins, who finally believed him and his tales of traveling to the planet Rann. During his stay in Arkham, he had read a magazine article on Raymond Palmer and his matter reduction device. This provided Adam with the basis of an idea to defeat the Centre. After picking up Palmer, Adam introduced him to the other experts and scientists working to stop The Centre. Their plan incorporated Palmer's device in a two-stage assault. Strange was among the heroes that battled The Centre's mutant dinosaurs.[2]
