HISTORY

Taint was dispatched in a probe to Earth seventy years ago by an interstellar empire known as the Sole Jurisdiction, Ten years ago, he jettisoned from the probe which exploded i Earth's atmosphere releasing an unknown radiation. This irradiated unborn mammals, who when born, were all free of any birth defects. They were dubbed "Miracle Babies."

Ten years later, Taint landed on Earth, awoken to study the results of the Sole Jurisdiction's experiment. The radiation had created congenital warriors that from birth required no training, and an irresistible drive to kill. Once activated, the incidents of violence drew the involvement of the JLA. Tomorrow Woman was able to reach deep into the minds of the now ten year old Miracle Babies and destroy the corruption.

Frustrated by the heroes' intervention, Taint amplified the kill order which drew Tomorrow Woman to him. She brutally attacked him, destroying his armor which had been transmitting waves of pure rage. It took the combined powers of Tomorrow Woman, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, and the then-energy powered Superman, to focus and project the energy to obliterate the corruption within the minds of the Miracle Babies.

The current disposition of Taint as well as the Sole Jurisdiction's reaction to his failure is unknown. - JLA: Tomorrow Woman #1
