The Heroes of Lallor are a group of fictional superheroes in the DC Comics universe. They appear in stories featured in Adventure Comics involving the Legion of Super-Heroes.

Fictional history

The original Heroes of Lallor were five super-powered youths born roughly during the same time period on Lallor, a planet run by a dictatorship. They were raised by the government and rarely traveled off-world. First appearing in Adventure Comics #324, these heroes had "stronger" powers than the members of the Legion of Super-Heroes. They were tricked into attempting to destroy the Legion by a villain related to the Jungle King, who had died fighting the Legion earlier. During the battle, Duplicate Boy and Shrinking Violet fell in love and continued a relationship after the truth about the Heroes was discovered. At the end of the story the dictatorship on Lallor had been overthrown and the heroes chose to remain on their planet.

In Adventure Comics #339, one of the members, Beast Boy, who had been shunned by Lallorian society, had fled to a jungle planet, Vorn. There he led the animals on the planet in a revolt against humans. He eventually died saving a little girl from an attack by one of the animals. He is buried on Shanghalla, the memorial planet.

The Heroes of Lallor helped the Legion out several times against the Fatal Five and Darkseid.

Eventually Duplicate Boy and Shrinking Violet broke up after she was kidnapped by Imskian rebels and was replaced in the Legion by a Durlan named Yera. Violet confronted Duplicate Boy for finding out the truth (he x-rayed the imposter) and failing to come to Violet's rescue.
