Lagoon Boy went on to become a superhero and served in Young Justice.
(Sins of Youth: JLA, Jr. #1) - The adult Lagoon Man met up with all the heroes affected by Klarion's spell at the Justice Cave, where they decided to split up to find a way to reverse Klarion's magic.
(Sins of Youth: Aquaboy / Lagoon Man) - The mystically aged “Lagoon Man” and de-aged “Aquaboy” spent quality time lounging on the beach and hitting on women. Their fun didn’t last long as they were informed by Letifos that the newly rebuilt Thiera na Oge was under siege by Black Manta, who was in possession of Ronal’s Staff.. Lagoon Man helped Aquaboy defeat Manta and destroy the Staff.
(Titans East Special #1, Titans II #1) - Cyborg recruited a new roster of young heroes and contacted his old friends to reform the Titans and train them. Everyone turned him down, but Nightwing told him he appreciated what he was trying to do. They bout had a moment of nostalgia for the Titans, and how they were always equally family and a team. Cyborg assembled the new Hawk and Dove, Power Boy, Lagoon Boy, Anima, Son of Vulcan and Little Barda as the Teen Titans East. He wanted them to prove themselves as a team, so he set up a war game where the rest of the team would try to subdue Power Boy, whose cockiness and unfortunate run-in with Supergirl meant he had yet to earn Cyborg’s trust, despite his immense power. The team functioned decently, if not entirely in synch before Power Boy was charred and impaled on a tree. Laser beams cut down the rest of the team, as Cyborg watched helplessly before he was consumed y a fireball that destroyed most of his body. The former Titans responded, and Raven realized that her father Trigon was trying to kill every last Titan, past or present.
