History: <30th Century> Ulu was always a klutz, and one day he  accidentally fell in front of a lab machine that was projecting multi-dimensional light rays. As a result e gained superpowers and took on the identity of Color Kid. He traveled to Earth to try out for the Legion of Super-Heroes but was rejected because his power was deemed too weak, and because de demonstrated how awkward and clumsy he was. The Legion hooked him up with the Legion of Substitute Heroes, and he soon joined the Subs.

(DC Comics Presents #59) - Ambush Bug broke out of jail and decided to annoy Superman, teleporting on his back and wrapping his cape around his head as he was traveling through time. Superman had an errand to run in the 40th Century, but couldn't bring the Bug, so he stopped by the 30th century and dropped him by the Legion of Substitute Heroes, who were subbing for the MIA Legion. Polar Boy put him in a holding cell, and assured Superman everything would be okay. Superman ran his errand only to find Ambush Bug had escaped the heroes' custody. Chlorophyll Kid admitted that their holding cell was broken, so they had Bug in an aquarium tank. The Science Police alerted Superman to the chaos Bug was causing, and he was currently running through the Superman Museum. Superman dreaded Ambush Bug discovering his secret identity, and flew to the museum with the Substitute Heroes. He tried frying all the bugs he used to teleport, but Ambush Bug had more stored in his antennae. Superman reasoned that Ambush Bug could be tricked by putting up signs telling him not to enter a room, and not to push a button, and as soon as the signs were up Ambush Bug activated a Phantom Zone projector, trapping him. Superman gave the Subs a pep talk, telling them they'd make their own legends one day.

Due to the events of Zero Hour Color Kid's existence was erased from history.
