History: (Justice League of America II #2-4) - The Bomb Squad were hired for a hit on Senator Godfrey, and to get past the senator's power scanners they needed to temporarily lose their powers. They went to see Parasite, who provided just such a service for the supervillain community. Parasite shanghaied them to work for Solomon Grundy, who attached Starros to their neck, mind controlling them. Grundy was assembling a new Amazo android to serve as his new immortal body, and needed the Bomb Squad gather components for him. They stole the Tantu Totem from Vixen, and returned to Grundy. Professor Ivo transplanted the Totem into Red Tornado's stolen body when Black Canary, Arsenal and Green Lantern, who were tracking Red Tornado, attacked the villains. Ivo unleashed a number of other Tornado androids on them while the Bomb Squad brought Red Tornado's body to a sublevel of Ivo's hq so he could complete the armor. The entire Justice League assembled to battle the villains, and removed the Starros from the Bomb Squad. The League defeated Grundy and Ivo.
