Origin

When the Doom Patrol adjusted their purpose to take in misunderstood metahumans and train them to control their often dangerous abilities, a few new recruits were put on a team coached by Flex Mentallo, called The Flex Force. He would teach them physical fitness, general superheroics, and how to control their powers.

Creation

Members of Flex Force were first introduced as a group in Unstoppable Doom Patrol #6 by Dennis Culver and Chris Burnham

Major Story Arcs

Unstoppable

During a demonstration of their progress, they played capture the flag against the Doom Patrol, only to have their training session interrupted by the new Brotherhood of Evil. The Flex Force was thrown into the deep end against the regular Doom Patrol rivals. While the two teams join forces to defeat the Brotherhood, Willoughby Kipling gives Robotman an important message. The Brotherhood was a distraction so that General Immortus could dig up Dorothy Spinner's grave and use her power to channel The Candlemaker.

Kipling tried to ward Robotman against Immortus' new magic, but Robotman was in desperate need of backup. Crazy Jane was unwilling to leave The Shelter vulnerable to the Brotherhood, so Jane managed to convince The Quiz, who Immortus had rescued and enslaved from the Painting That Ate Paris, to switch sides. Combining their powers allowed them to defeat this new Candlemaker, who Quiz than threw into The Bleed.
