Drxla's homeworld had been hit hard by a planet-wide blight that was starving the entire populace. She was chosen to travel to Earth to try and track down a possible food source with similar properties to the food her species eats. She found the food source in Captain Strong's Sauncha weed. But, before she was able to get the Sauncha weed she had transformed herself into a Pterodactyl, Caped Buffalo and an extinct Kryptonian Oourba-Beast in order to get the Sauncha weed from Captain Strong.
