Maxima was approached about a month after emergence to join this thing called Legion of Superheroes. She had no idea what that was but it sounded like she got to punch things, so she was down with that but she didn't choose to join up right away she wanted to see the world, maybe beat up some thugs along the way, and maybe find a better offer. During the month she learned more about this Legion thing. It did indeed offer her the oppurtunity to throw quite a few punches, but they were goody two shoes. She was creating a mental list of pros & cons. Eventually she forgot must of the list, and so to herself. "Fuck it, let's join." She finally decided to join. She crash landed about a feet from the Legion's HQ. She stood up and dusted herself off. She walked up to their front door and knocked as loudly and as hard as possible. "Knock, knock."
