Daxamites

As far as i know under a yellow sun a daxamite is as powerfull as a kryptonian.

So why do they play no greater role in the universe? In all the cosmic crisis they do not apper. A whole planet of potentially super people. Imagine billions of superman level beeings in the universe.

There should be more daxamite criminals everywhere. The daxcamites could have conquered the universe a long time ago.

The universe is in danger because of Imperx. Well, why do not the daxamite army appear - some millions of daxamites could fight every enemy.

One thing is not every planet in the DCU revolves around a yellow sun!

Two they have a very common weakness in lead.

[Expletive Deleted]

The lead weakness is the main thing.

They've also been portrayed in some continuities as fairly xenophobic and isolationist. I don't know if that's still the case, though.

JSA OWAW is where Daxam appeared. Imperex was using them to power his ship that the JSA freed from captivity/imprisonment.

Imagine you live a boring, normal life on your planet. Would you not try to leave the planet and travel to a planet under a yellow star, where you can have god-like powers.

There should be a mass exodus.

[Gernot]

Daxamites HAVE been shown to be xenophobic, as another poster pointed out. They're raised from childhood to shun other races.

The lead poisoning thing, though, IS the main cause of their not leaving the planet. No one wants to commit suicide trying to leave the planet.
