Genomorphs are living weapons engineered in secret by Project Cadmus to be an army. There are eight known types: 0424, 0427, 0707, 0777, Gnomes, Dubbilex, Match, and Superboy. Depending on the type, each has a special set of skills from super strength, telepathy, or razor claws. They are hatched from biological pods deep down in one of Cadmus' Sub Levels. From birth, they are exposed to mind control and rendered under Cadmus' auspices. Dubbilex recognized Superboy's potential to be the hero of Genomorphs and blaze a trail of freedom for them all. He set a fire to lure superheroes to Cadmus. Robin, Aqualad, and Kid Flash arrived and liberated Superboy. After Guardian was appointed chief officer of Cadmus, he declared there would be no more Genomorph Gnomes or secret breeding projects.
The Genomorphs were transitioned to Cadmus' workforce. This was not enough for Dubbilex. He founded a secret city underneath Sub Level 52 and slowly away whisked several Genomorphs. Until society was more open, they could be free and live in this city. However, Superboy inadvertently led Cadmus officials to Genomorph City.
