Wildfire was first introduced in 'Superboy' (vol. 1) #195 in 1973.

2. When auditioning for Legion membership, Wildfire originally used a different code name. What was it?

Answer: Erg-1

Erg stood for "Energy Release Generator".

3. When Wildfire originally auditioned for membership, he duplicated the powers of several existing members. Which of the following was NOT one of those Legionnaires?

Answer: Cosmic Boy

4. What is Wildfire's home planet?

Answer: Earth

Drake Burroughs, an Earthling, was an astroengineer before being caught in a blast of anti-matter energy and being turned into Wildfire.

5. Like Ferro Lad before him, Wildfire wears a full helmet around his head. Why is this?

Answer: He has no actual body, his costume contains his energy

Wildfire's body was completely destroyed, and his consciousness now resides in pure anti-energy. That energy needs a containment suit to house it, and to allow Wildfire to "speak".

6. Wildfire eventually developed feelings for a fellow Legion member. Their relationship was very hot and cold, on and off, for many years. Which member was it?

Answer: Dawnstar

Wildfire's lack of a physical body, along with his hotheadedness, hindered his infatuation with Dawnstar, though eventually she did express having feelings for him as well.

7. For a brief time, Wildfire was able to function without his special suit. Which fellow Legion member was responsible for this change?

Answer: Quislet

Quislet was a member of the Legion who was also comprised of energy. He was able train Wildfire to maintain a physical body. Wildfire was unable to maintain this ability after Quislet left the Legion.

Answer: Sun Boy

Wildfire kept this information secret by continuing to use a containment suit even though he really no longer needed it because his energy was now "housed" inside of Sun Boy's dead body.

Answer: Atom'X and Blast-Off

Atom'X was a member of the Amazers and Blast-Off was a member of Work Force. Both were believed killed by Mordru, but somehow their minds were integrated into one consciousness comprised of pure energy.

Answer: Red Tornado

Wildfire reveals that his containment suit is actually Red Tornado's android body. Additionally, he shares some of Red Tornado's memories.
