## Fictional character biography
### Lyle Norg

The first Invisible Kid was Lyle Norg, an early member of the Legion who gained his powers from a chemical serum he invented. He is a colleague of Brainiac 5 and a member of the Legion Espionage Squad before being killed by Validus.
A temporal clone of Invisible Kid from "Batch SW6" is introduced during the "Five Year Gap" following the Magic Wars.

#### Reboot

Following Zero Hour: Crisis in Time!, which reboots the Legion's continuity, Lyle Norg is resurrected and depicted as the leader of the Legion Espionage Squad and an intellectual rival of Brainiac 5.
According to The Definitive Guide to The Characters of the DC Universe (2004), he is in a homosexual relationship with Condo Arlik / Chemical King. This, however, was never stated explicitly in the comic itself and never developed.

#### "Threeboot" continuity (2004-2009)

In the "Threeboot", Lyle Norg is the son of a Science Police officer who plans to seize his research for their use. After discovering this, Lyle uses his serum on himself and joins the Legion.

#### Post-Infinite Crisis

Invisible Kid appears as a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes following Infinite Crisis, which restores an analogue of the pre-Crisis Legion.

### Jacques Foccart

Jacques Foccart, the second Invisible Kid, is a native of the Ivory Coast who becomes a superhero while battling his sister Danielle, who is possessed by Computo.

#### "Five Years Later"

After the Dominators take over Earth, Jacques joins a resistance cell alongside Tyroc and the former members of the Legion of Substitute Heroes. After the Dominators are defeated, Invisible Kid and Tyroc respectively become president and vice president of Earth. Later, following the destruction of Earth, Jacques resigns to rejoin the Legion and Troy becomes president.

#### Post-Zero Hour

In post-Zero Hour continuity, Jacques Foccart is a friend and classmate of Lyle Norg who is forced to drink his serum by Charma, a fellow student with mind control abilities.

### The New Golden Age

In The New Golden Age, Invisible Kid is among the Legion of Super-Heroes members who arrive in the present and confront the Justice Society over their decision to recruit Legionnaire, a young, heroic incarnation of Mordru.

## Reception

Syfy ranked the first Invisible Kid as the 24th greatest Legion of Super-Heroes member, stating that during "his time in the 1960s, Invisible Kid was a constant, but not noteworthy presence, until he was killed by Validus. When the Legion rebooted in 1994, he became a major player, showing he was one of the savviest members of the team". Syfy ranked the second Invisible Kid as number 38 describing the character as "boring" and "notable because of his name and his Rogue inspired haircut". Syfy opined that despite "later becoming President of Earth, he never did a whole lot except shout French expressions".
