    In the latter half of the 30th Century, Brainiac 5 undertook a project to build the ultimate computer. He named the artificial intelligence that emerged Computo, and then watched helplessly as Computo ruthlessly set out to create a tyranny of computers on Earth. With the assistance of other members of the Legion of Super Heroes, Brainiac 5 defeated Computo, but not before the machine had destroyed one of Luornu Durgo's three bodies, changing her from Triplicate Girl to Duo Damsel.

    Restored to inanimate life years later when Brainiac 5 accidentally incorporated a similar circuitry in a device he had built to save the life of Danielle Foccart, Computo invaded LSH headquarters and nearly killed the entire team. He sealed away Brianiac 5 and the Foccart's in hopes of seeking revenge on his creator. He had possessed the body and mind of Danille but was quickly burning its host body, who could not long survive the interface.
