Lightning Boy appeared in the classic one, Lighting Lord voted for Superman's death, Disgusting Boy voted in Doctor Spin, Kwikster was in Simpsons, Spark voted against Impulse, Brainiac 5 in Legion in the 31st Century (against Arm-Fall-Off-Boy?!), Silent Girl and Telepathy Lad in the L.E.G.I.O.N. parallel which rocks... *deep breath*<BR/><BR/>But, the only three to appear together in the SAME judging panel are Cosmos Lad, Elektro Boy and Asteroid Girl, all of whom appear in the new Teenagers from the Future book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18787738.post-23812811339868388462008-12-03T00:16:00.000-06:002008-12-03T00:16:00.000-06:00Michael, read my comment again -- I know the answe...Michael, read my comment again -- I know the answer to #7, but I want to see who else does.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01714171897239398438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18787738.post-30777808610492385952008-12-02T20:56:00.000-06:002008-12-02T20:56:00.000-06:00going to guess at a few.1. whatever movie Tenzil ...going to guess at a few.<BR/><BR/>1. whatever movie Tenzil was in before getting his archeology show in v4?<BR/><BR/>3.

The original training complex was sold to a health and fitness club when the acaedmy moved to Montauk Point.<BR/><BR/>3. My guess would be the bottom panel of pg 6 from Adventure #316, which was adapted to become the masthead for the old Legion Outpost letter column.<BR/><BR/>4. The first instance was Brainy during the Jungle King story in Adventure #309. The second was also Brainy during "The Legion's Suicide Squad" in Adventure #319<BR/><BR/>5. Already been answered, Wrynn, son of Topaz, as shown in the Amethyst miniseries.<BR/><BR/>6. Already answered, Devlin O'Ryan/Iris West Allen during 5 Years Later period.<BR/><BR/>7. Definitely a great question, but I almost feel guilty answering it because I have a particular interest in the material behind it. I'll throw out the answer without the explanation for now, so that other people can still try to figure it out. The characters who "don't belong" in this list are Cosmos Lad, Asteroid Girl and Silent Girl. I'll add another hint, which will be more obscurity for some but might give others a clue: the ones who belong on this list were all central in a decision making process.<BR/><BR/>Bonus: Can't think of any others, but will add them if any occur to me.Craigopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04541256355946400502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18787738.post-15217801088873484122008-12-02T20:35:00.000-06:002008-12-02T20:35:00.000-06:001.

Or in the ancillary story bits in Who's Who in the Legion? Was it a Ferro Lad documentary?<BR/><BR/>3. I'd have to guess Ferro Lad popping Superboy to steal the Sun-Eater bomb.<BR/><BR/>4. The other Legionnaire was Cosmic Boy, I think.<BR/><BR/>7. Except Brainiac 5, Lightning Lord, and Spark, the others are all from non-continuity Legion variants. (Asteroid Girl appears on the front cover of Teenagers from the Future. Others may be from Amalgam stories, etc. Lightning Boy was retconned into being one of the Time Trapper's stunts.)Jim Drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00987446462436563788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18787738.post-52133633375517564792008-12-02T18:47:00.000-06:002008-12-02T18:47:00.000-06:001.
