Legion of Super-Heroes Dog Names

Introduction

Everyone knows the story of how Superman, the legendary Man of Steel, right - how an alien infant from the dying planet Krypton was sent to the Earth via a shuttle and taught by a pair of humble farmers to use his powers for good? Most everyone knows Superman's origin story... or at least they think they do. Created in 1945 by comic book industry veterans Otto Binder and Al Pastino, the Legion of Super-Heroes initially met Superman during his formative years, when he just beginning to fight crime as Superboy. Hailing from the distant future, the founding members of the Legion visited Superboy and told him about the various ways he'd go on to inspire an uncountable number of individuals all around the galaxy to fight the good fight.

Timber Wolf

Timber Wolf is something of an anomaly, even amongst the cosmically diverse members of the Legion of Super-Heroes, primarily due to this tragic backstory; you see, while most members of the Legion were either born with their powers, gained them after passing some sort of secret test of character, or co-opted their abilities by utilizing a piece of complex technology (most of the members of the Legion have access to the organization's world famous Legion Flight Rings,) Timber Wolf's abilities were not a gift but rather a curse - one that warped the young hero on both a psychological and physiological level.

The man that would become known across the galaxy as Timber Wolf was once a normal boy by the name of Brin Londo from the planet Zuun. Brin had the misfortune of having a mad scientist for a father and from a very early age, Brin was constantly and painfully experimented on by his own father in a delirious bid to transform his son into something more than a mere mortal. For years, Brin was picked and pulled apart on the molecule level, unable to break away from his father's torturous experiments and hesitant to raise a hand against his father, even in the name of self defense.

But eventually Brin's father, Dr. Mar Londo, picked away and pulled away so much of his son that barely anything was left of the boy he once was. After years of experimentation, Mar Londo had effectively replaced his son with a cold, calculating killing machine that was more beast than man. This beast didn't have any moral hangups whatsoever about doing what it needed to do to escape Mar Londo's twisted clutches and, with his new found strength, Brin was able to rise up against his father and break free from his ensnaring grasp.

While the exact details of Brin's escape or even the ultimate fate of Dr. Mar Londo are as mysteries in various iterations of the Legion's story line, what is known is that Brin would eventually join the prolific group's ranks by graduating from the Legion Academy. Though the damage done to Brin's psyche may very well be irreversible, the young man still struggles against his feral urges to use his beastly powers for good and fight intergalactic crime as the hero Timber Wolf. Sometimes called Lone Wolf, Timber has increased strength, speed, reflexes, agility, and a set of razor sharp claws on both hands.

The Legions three founding members, Rokk Krinn, aka Cosmic Boy, Imra Ardeen, aka Saturn Girl, and Garth Ranzz, aka Lightning Lad are all aliens from another world who protect the Earth as well as many other planets, just like Superman. If your pet displays tenacity and courage, then a name honoring this theme would be just the fit.

The three founders have since encountered many other brave individuals who help them in attaining that goal who all come from places both far and wide. One of those brave individuals is a member that dog owning fans of the Legion would do well to acquaint themselves with; the lupine hero Timber Wolf. While Timber Wolf's appearance often varies greatly depending on the artist who draws him, as well as the era he's drawn in. Timber Wolf often appears as a man with lupine features.
