I was never a big Herbie fan.
The childhood friend Exnihil never had.

Can't wait until my newest AR collectibles come in. I've never heard of them and I don't think many, if any, here may have.

As soon as I have them in my hands, I'll post scans. Don't want to jinx it.  I will say the Legion has a full set of these but the ones I found seemed to be a limited release and have nothing to do with the other set. Of course just because I've never heard of the or seen them before doesn't mean they aren't common knowledge. But I can't find a record of them anywhere.

My scanner isn't working so I'll have to sneak in some time at work tomorrow. Darden knows what I have (and has first dibs on my dups) and he had never heard of them either. I may have made my first AR discovery. And as these aren't Adv. 247 homages, I'll start a new thread for them.

There's a few more parodies of these covers on the Dial B for Blog web site , featuring Rejected heroes such as Comatose Infant, Universe Destroyer Lad, and Little Hands (think Infantino captions).

Pete, those are hilarious! Thanks!
Somebody should use Composite Beppo for an avatar, he's priceless.

I've added an Homage section to LegionPics . Still working on getting some of the fan created ones added so if you see any new instances let me know.

Thought I had this one here but I guess not. Playing with my new scanner so I redid the scan at LegionPics.

Here's the latest one, from The Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st Century #16 (September 2008). I like how his applicant number is #247 also. The Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st Century #16

The "How do you celebrate your Legion hobby?" thread reminded me that, over on the DCMB, as part of a Jeopardy-themed game thread I ran, I cobbled together a series of Photoshopped "ads" for it, one of which I give you for posterity, here: ![[Linked Image]](http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh48/exnihil_album/247.jpg)

I have a version done by Don Rosa, which unfortunately is a bit too big to scan, I think.
It has Huey, Dewey, and Louie as the "Legion of Jr. Woodchucks," rejecting Uncle $crooge:
"I'm sorry, Uncle $crooge, but we cannot admit you into our Jr. Woodchucks Club! The low score on the tests we gave that moneybag proves you're too cheap! Next time bring two bags of bribe cash!"

How about a digital pic, Stu? Not as good as a scan but then we'd get to see it..and it would be immortalized with the others!
