L.E.G.I.O.N. was a very large team with a lot of history, and there were quite a few characters that we didn't include because they were unoriginal or too obscure.
Garryn would, on first glimpse, appear to be a character we could have easily left behind. He doesn't have any powers. He's just a pilot and conman, a generic sci-fi background character in a team of superheroes. but the fact is, it's exactly that normalcy that makes him an interesting inclusion in L.E.G.I.O.N. He provides a humanizing element in the team, serving as their pilot and underworld contact. We've deliberately included his retirement back onto his home planet to illustrate Vril's movement away from having partners and into his creation of an android army, but he remains a key part of L.E.G.I.O.N.'s sucess until the time of his death at the hands of Lady Styx's forces. |
