History
As a result of the aftermath of Infinite Crisis, the Extremists are a group of villains from Earth-8 who have refused to comply with the Metahuman Act, a government ordinance mandating that all metahumans need to register with the government.[1] This pitted the Extremists against the government sponsored team, the Meta Militia. After their fight against the Meta Militia, the Extremists gain control of the country of Slovekia. The Extremists are encountered by Donna Troy, Jason Todd, "Bob" the Monitor, and Kyle Rayner during the heroes' search for Ray Palmer. They capture the group, but are interrupted by the arrival of Bob's overzealous brother, Solomon, and at the same time, Monarch and Forerunner.[2] In the confusion, the heroes move out of sight, and the Extremists are offered a place in Monarch's army. Lord Havok refuses, attacking Monarch, and Jason kills Barracuda.[3]
After Havok's refusal, Monarch begins destroying places of great importance to the Extremists, which Havok dismisses as "acceptable losses", much to the chagrin of the Extremists.[4] Extremists member Dr. Diehard attempt to convince his Extremists allies in overthrowing Havok's leadership in the face of the Meta-Militia's invasion of Slovekia, but was overpowered and killed by his teammates.[5] As the Meta-Militia and Monarch's forces attack the Extremist's headquarters, Havok reveals his trap: he has purposefully let the attacking metahumans into the base to lure them into a power-nullifying chamber. After decimating all but Monarch and Americommando (who is apprehended by Bluejay, whom he rebelled against the Meta-Militia), Havok agreed to join Monarch's forces.
The Extremists then battled on Earth-51. When Superman-Prime rips open Monarch's armor, causing an explosion that eradicates all of Earth-51, Lord Havok uses a tiny portion of Monarch's power, stolen during their first encounter, to teleport himself and the Extremists to a base hidden in Earth-8's moon.[6]
