The Extremists were the preeminent team of super villains of the alternate universe world of Angor. Following the destruction of their world, the ethereal Dreamslayer traveled to Earth and continued his rampage with robotic duplicates of his deceased teammates. The robots were constructed by the idiosyncratic Mitch Wacky, along with the ASSEMBLERS, one of the few survivors of the destroyed world of Angor.
While the European branch of the JUSTICE LEAGUE often found themselves at odds with the Extremists and anecdotal evidence indicates that Booster Gold may have battled the Extremists in the past, Booster Gold did not directly combat Dreamslayer until he commanded the NEW EXTREMISTS.
