Arani Caulder, widow of the original Doom Patrol founder Niles Caulder, pulled the current force together after the original Doom Patrol perished. The new force includes original member Cliff Steele—Robotman, a cyborg with the mind of a race car driver and a body of steel; Ariana, who as Celsius can throw extreme heat or cold; Tempest, a doctor who can toss off power blasts; and an incarnation of Negative Man. Over time the cast of characters has become steadily stranger, featuring Scissormen, monkey-faced girls, and a sentient boulevard named Danny the Street.
Much more than a super-hero series, Doom Patrol combines Dadaism, psychedelia, and adult themes into a compelling mix that makes it unique among comics.
