His suspension ray was instrumental in taking down Black Adam during a conflict. He is one of the scientists who defend the island against Black Adam, paralyzing Adam with his suspension beam.

Following Veronica Cale taking over the island, Now that the Doom Patrol has based their headquarters on Oolong, Tyme lives in fear that they will discover his secret identity. He mistakenly believes that he was their arch-nemesis, although they actually viewed him as mostly inconsequential. Tyme is one of the scientists who stays behind as one of her Science Squad members, even though the island is now also home to the Doom Patrol. Afraid that they will discover his secret identity, he asks Rocky Davis (now a reverend that serves as the Doom Patrol's grief counselor) to inform the Patrol he wishes them no harm and wants to peacefully coexist alongside them.
