Lyle Norg was one of the most noted child geniuses on Earth in the 30th century. He graduated from Metropolis University, at the age of twelve, with honors in biochemistry.

While researching ways of eliminating these mutations from racial groups, Lyle discovered a serum that could cause a specific mutation, the ability to turn invisible at will.
Fascinated by the possibilities, and problems of such a power, he tested it on himself. Believing that this new-found power was not something he could leave unused he applied for membership in the Legion of Super-Heroes.

On good terms with all the Legionnaires, he was close friends with Chemical King, as the two had met when the young mutant had come to Earth to receive treatment for his catalytic power and Lyle had been brought in because of his expertise in biochemistry.
