Esper Lass is from Titan, a moon of Saturn, in the 30th century. Like other natives of Titan (including Legionnaire Saturn Girl), she is a natural telepath. After being denied from joining the Legion of Super-Heroes due to a rule prohibiting members with identical powers, Esper Lass works with other rejects to battle them before being defeated.[1] In later appearances, Esper Lass joins the Legion of Super-Villains.[2][3][4][5]

Esper Lass is an alien with innate telepathic abilities, enabling her to read and control the minds of others.[1]
