Season One
Rory led a small time gang in Metropolis but they were upgraded with stolen Task Force X technology by Leslie Willis. Before they could rob a shop, Agent Slade Wilson swiftly defeated them but they thought their assailant was Superman. Superman, Jimmy Olsen, and Lois Lane later got embroiled in Task Force X's attempt to capture Rory. Heat Wave and other criminals imprisoned by Task Force X were forced to aid them in capturing Superman. Willis, now Livewire, was secretly freed by Amanda Waller and they made their escape. Rory and Willis entered into a romantic relationship and flourished as for-hire illegal work.
Season Two
Jimmy Olsen paid Livewire and Heat Wave to aid him and Lois Lane with a plan to break into S.T.A.R. Labs and steal the AmazoTech Jump Drive Ship. Eager to make even more money, Heat Wave and Livewire pretended to break up as a cover while her gang raided S.T.A.R. Labs. They overheard Lois Lane talking about wanting to make things right with Clark Kent and decided to help Lane and Olsen launch the ship into space. They managed to get away without being arrested. General Sam Lane recruited several, including Heat Wave, to help defend Earth during Brainiac's invasion. One of Lex Luthor's hacked Metallos shot her down but Livewire rescued her and Superman and Kara Zor-El made it to Kandor and Brainiac was eventually destroyed.
Season Three
Livewire and Heatwave attended the Superfest at the Metropolis Convention Center.
