In the beginning, there were Injustice Gangs and Societies that terrorized their native worlds, each time put down by their opposite numbers in the heroic community. So a new type of organization was developed by these ferocious felons, more a collaborative than a syndicate. A Secret Society of Super-Villians, if you will. And right from the start, the men who made their fellow superpowered champions know of their evil existence were the resident telepaths... Captain Comet and Brainwave Junior. Traveling through space and time, they were bound and determined to bring down the Society... or perish in the attempt!
Early on in the lifespan of these lethal leagues, two hyper-intelligence simians assumed the power vacuum left behind by their predecessors who first assembled these Societies. Though strategists par none, aligning superior numbers of costumed criminals to their cause, these individuals... Gorilla Grodd and Ultra-Humanite... found a formidable challenge in the presence of Captain Comet and Brainwave Junior, who matched their mental energies in mind matches between them. Even when the simians thought the foes in the Justice League and Society were defeated, their plans were overturned.
Even avalanches caused by their adversaries did little to stem the tide of victory in the path of Comet and Junior. One other candiate for leadership tied to the Secret Society was the Wizard, who manipulated rogues on both Earths One and Two to vanquish his persistent foes. Ultimately, things came full circle to the beginning, as it was Ultra-Humanite who... as he had in the 1940's, regained authority over his Super-Villains in a desperate attempt to wipe his world of all heroes. Failing in that, his sending his erstwhile allies back to the 40's renewed the legacy that was a Secret.
