"I got to take the truck, drop off a GTO in Palm Desert."
Canelo to Robbie Reyes[src]

Palm Desert is a city in California, in the surroundings of which the Church of Gibborim facility known as the Crater was located.

History[]

Frank Dean journeyed to Palm Desert to undergo a Church of Gibborim ritual ceremony in an attempt to ascend to the rank of Ultra in the Church's hierarchy, but failed and had to leave the Crater.[1]

Weeks later, Leslie Dean was also sent to the Crater in Palm Desert due to Frank attempting to remove her from the leadership of the Church of Gibborim which he wanted to claim. There, Leslie was reunited with her mother Susan Ellerh, who had also been sent into exile in Palm Desert when Leslie was just a little girl.[2]

Eventually, Leslie was rescued from the Crater by the Runaways Karolina Dean, Nico Minoru and Molly Hernandez. The four of them were able to leave Palm Desert unharmed, while Frank remained prisoner in the Crater after the parishioners of the Church of Gibborim, now led by Ellerh, turned on him.[3]
