I live in Missouri, which some people pronounce Miz-zoor-ee and others pronounce Miz-zoor-uh, and both insist that they are right. But I don't think anybody's kicked anybody's asterisks over it.

(Although if anyone pronounces Mon-El "MOAN-El" I just may have to zap them into the Phantom Zone.)

was I the only one to notice ALL the TWINS on Winath? I mean, as the people were running from the shelter, people who looked EXACTLY alike running in pairs together. it's like, there's some genetic trait specific to Winath that makes twins so much more frequent. guess that made Mekt a bit lonely and left out.

Actually, there is. In the comics(and apparently in the show), on Winath everyone is born with a twin, and anyone born without a twin is a rarity, which is why Mekt was considered an outcast(and probably part of the reason why he became a criminal).

Twins are the norm on Winath in every version of the LSH to date. A single child, like Mekt, is assumed to have something wrong with them.

I think the whole Ranzz family is that way. Since fraternal twins are merely a coincidence of timing while identical twins are the true genetic anomaly. Or at least, it's an anomaly for us on Earth. On Winath, it's the other way around, and they give a pass for Garth and Ayla, but deep down, they must realize that they're not the same as everyone else.

I mean, I've never seen any other sets of boy/girl twins in any issue of Legion taking place on Winath. It's always been two male twins or two female, never one of each.

They aren't as common, but in Legends of the Legion, Ayla had a pair of fraternal twins for friends. That's the only time I can recall, though.

(Though lordy knows I love the Ranzz siblings and their issues.)

The fact that they are boy/girl fraternal twins as opposed to identical or even same sex fraternal twins affects the way they developed.

Ayla's historical portrayals can be interpreted through this lens quite well.

Then there's the bizzare Mekt-Garth-Ayla triangle that's always been around.

OK I'm confused. Todays episode was the LOSV again. I though the last two weeks was going to be a two parter to end the first year.

Yeah, they are, but those episodes aren't airing until April, as I recall.

You're right. I remember that now. I stand corrected.

Let us not forget Blane and Sarya Gulz in Legion Worlds #2. Even their parents couldn't tell them apart!

If Ferro Lad dies will he be a first super-hero to permanently bite the dust in DC cartoons? I seem to remember characters like Flash and Batgirl dying in dreams and parallel realities, but not for real, and other characters appearing to die but coming back later. I guess Terra in TTG, but she was a villain, sort of.

Legion Worlds was mentioned. The end of the Winath story where Mekt said "Now I can be your twin Ayla" was chilling. I've always wished there had been a chance to follow up on that.

If that's the case then I'm assuming the Substitutes will be airing again soon like the LOSV did last week. If they are does anyone know the exact date? Have to see that episode again.

BTW, BB61...You can keep checking the Air date thread to find out when each episode is supposed to be shown.
