When Batman learns of a plot to kill Flash, he comes with Orion to Central City to protect both Flash and any innocents during the grand opening of the Flash Museum. Orion is plainly irritated and uncomprehending of Flash's lighthearted attitude and affinity for talking to his enemies, instead of opting immediately for battle. He even calls Flash a fool for having compassion for the Trickster, who is not innately evil but suffers from psychological problems. Batman's hunch was correct and Captain Boomerang, Mirror Master and Captain Cold all make appearances to fight. Orion's flying harness is destroyed by Captain Cold's ice attack, prodding him to fight on foot. He sustains punishment from explosives and ice attacks, yet once freed he is not noticeably injured. At the end of the story, he mistakenly believes that Flash's lighthearted attitude is meant to hide "a warrior's pain". Flash and Batman have little recourse but to let Orion believe this; it is clear that powerful, polarized emotions and concepts are Orion's way of life and he cannot easily comprehend diplomacy, mercy, and empathy.
