Triumph was basically DC's Sentry, before Marvel ever thought up Sentry.

He was a Zero Hour retcon, having been a founding member(which was probably reaching a little far with the character since the original lineup is so iconic) that was shunted off into limbo during a mission with all memory of him being erased. During Zero Hour he returned and joined the Justice League Task Force shortly after, before being kicked out for being a dick.

Grant Morrison brought him back in JLA during the soft pilot for JSA, Crisis Times Five, where he became possessed by a 5th dimensional imp and tried to use the power to become leader of the new JLA. He was eventually turned into ice by The Spectre(after he lost Jim Corrigan but before he had gotten Hal Jordan as his new human host) who was about to smash him with a sledgehammer until Zauriel stepped in to stop him.

Then Morrison forgot about the Zauriel popsicle on display when he had the Watchtower destroyed and accidentally killed Triumph in the process.

He's a case of life imitating art, being forgotten about and lost to time.
