Sirocco, a new hero operating out of Tehran, Iran, first appeared when Superman became distraught by what he saw in Arion’s vision, decided to see if there was any truth in this. Traveling to Tehran, he arrived during the time that Sirocco was fighting a group of terrorists, and he helped him. Sirocco was very honored to meet Superman. Being new to the super-heroics and initially thinking of using the codename “Al-Dabaran”(He who follows) as his own, decided to use “Sirocco” instead when Superman called him this way having seen the future. Wanting to know more about him, they went somewhere else to talk. Sirocco told him that he received his powers by fighting and killing a wind Ifrit. Superman through the use of his senses, knew that he was lying and asked him about Khyber. Sirocco became angry and took Superman to a place where he said that he killed Khyber by himself.
