Metron Pharmaceuticals is a LuthorCorp subsidiary that Lionel Luthor used to develop the Lazarus Serum.
Early History[]
Lionel Luthor used Metron Pharmaceuticals to fund Dr. Emil Jenkins' medical trial treating children for antisocial behavior. Dr. Jenkins used a new Kryptonite-based drug to treat the test subjects. The experimental drug caused the boys to mutate when exposed to sunlight. Six of the boys who received the drug died, leaving Byron Moore the only survivor. LuthorCorp officially shut down the Metatron pharmaceuticals facility seven years prior to 2003. The lab closure caused LuthorCorp's stock to plunge since Lionel invested heavily in the failed venture. Lionel Luthor secretly arranged to have the laboratory recommissioned so he could have the Lazarus Serum developed. Luthor arranged for molecular biologist Dr. Lia Teng to marry a LuthorCorp security guard so she could get a green card and move from North Korea to the US and lead the project.
Season Three[]
