Biography
Original multiverse
Impersonated
Senator Wellington was impersonated by Charlie, who sat in his seat in the Senate subcommittee, not before Charlie attempted to discredit Ray Palmer (possessed by Neron), who transformed "Wellington's" arm into a giant tentacle.[1]
Anti-Monitor Crisis
During the Anti-Monitor Crisis, Welligton as well as everyone in the multiverse except for the seven Paragons, was killed in an antimatter wave by the Anti-Monitor on December 10, 2019,[2] only to be restored a month later, after the Paragons and the Spectre created a new universe.[3]
New multiverse
Legends documentary
Having been impersonated by Charlie, Senator Wellington brought Time Bureau Director Ava Sharpe before him to discuss the Legends, whom he deemed to lack transparency. Due to that, he allowed them to continue being funded on the provision that a documentary crew followed them around.[4]

Trivia
- Since the Legends only needed him for funding, they decided to just steal valuables in history that wouldn't be missed to sell for money.
- Had Wellington managed to take the Waverider from the Legends, he would have ended up damning Earth-Prime to chaos, as if the Encores had been allowed to alter history, the added contradictions and lack of important people would cause immeasurable damage to reality.
- Technically, he had no right to take the Waverider, as it is from the future and was originally Rip Hunter and the Legends' property.
