so i guess from that issue on the Time Trapper aka Cos was mucking up the time stream to prevent zero hour...though we should be grateful...saturn girl became a blonde, lightling boy became a lad, and cos stopped pulling down girls dresses with his eyes and started using his hands.

Oh, so that's how he was originally colored!
Looks like Bob Crane of "Hogan's Heroes."

That was B5 at a time when he was experimenting with his amazing Skin Pigment Deceptotron. However, the effect could only be maintained for an hour and was considered useless for espionage purposes.

That was the team's original genius, Poindexter Boy. Unfortunately all historical record of him was expunged when he spoke out against Rokk shortly after Superboy joined.
He was sent to the UP Gulag and Brainiac 5 was recruited quickly to replace him. In soviet times they'd airbrush people out of photos, in modern times they use photoshop. In the Legion's time the prefered method is time travel.
In the reprint we see Brainiac because he actually time travelled, abducted Poindexter for transport to the gulag and posed for this photo to show Rokk that the mission was complete.

That was actually a triplicated Triplicate Girl, when she was still Triplicate Boy. It's a little-known secret that she took ProFem shortly after Superboy first joined so that she could pursue her crush on him!
