While still in his teens, he assumed the guise of the masked mystery man, known as the Star-Spangled Kid and got an adult sidekick, Patrick Dugan. He later became a member of the Justice Society of America. Eventually, Sylvester was framed by a government agency, for stealing from his own company and was arrested. Just like the rest of his friends, Sylvester tried to take the blame and exonerate the others. Due to evidence of jury tampering and missing witnesses, the police couldn't hold them and Sylvester was released from custody. Later, Sylvester gave his costume and equipment to his old sidekick, Pat Dugan. Who stored them, in a footlocker, until his stepdaughter found them and decided to use them, as a means to annoy Pat, by becoming a super-hero on her own.

Smallville
Sylvester Pemberton approached Chloe Sullivan in a deserted alley and introduced himself to her. He told her he knew about her team of superheroes and said he was once in a society too. When he heard a strange sound, he threw Chloe into a dumpster and told her to stay there. The temperature dropped and Chloe remained in the dumpster as there was a fight going on outside. Being thrown around inside, Chloe tried to see what was happening outside when the noise stopped. After getting out, she knelt next to Sylvester who was stabbed all over his body. He kept repeating the word "Check" but died before he could tell her anything else.
