The Legion accepts him on Saturn Girl's say so, and Mystery Lad joins the group on their quest to stop Raxxon. During their battle, Mystery Lad exhibits different supposed abilities that keep the other Legion members missing. However, when Raxxon recognizes Mystery Lad for what he can really due: Change the properties of matter, Element Lad decides to turn himself over to Raxxon so nobody else gets hurt. However, when "Mystery Boy" refuses to turn objects into gold for Raxxon, he changes the gas aboard the ship into a toxic one that threatens to kill him. Raxxon and his goons, wearing space helmets manage to avoid the effects of the gas and try to make their escape.
