Oberon was Justice Leaguer Scott Free's manager during his days as a circus escape artist.  Scott met his feisty little friend shortly after Scott and his wife Barda escaped from the dreary flame pits of Apokolips.  It was Oberon who showed Scott how to make a living by performing his daring escapes for the public and suggested that Scott take on the alias "Mister Miracle," a nom-de-plume once used by Thaddeus Brown, a legendary escape artist whom Oberon once befriended (MISTER MIRACLE #1, SECRET ORIGINS #33).

When Scott joined the JLI, Oberon accompanied him and eventually became the Justice League's unofficial morale officer/gofer/troubleshooter/advisor (JLIA-001).  He was somehow involved in getting the League to accept the international status Maxwell Lord negotiated for them, but exactly what he did was unclear (JLIA-007).  On one notable adventure, Oberon accompanied Mister Miracle on an extended tour of the universe, a spectacle that was engineered by the manipulative Funky Flashman, and the galactic salesman supreme, Manga Khan.
