...so where's my t-shirt?!?

But actually I was wondering if anyone had scans of the Legionnaires that fought Darkseid during the Great Darkness Saga? I have been digging through my Long boxes and can't find my trade paperback. I'm working on a huge art project that's actually due pretty soon and I'm not sure if I've missed any Legionnaires (or if I've gotten the right costumes).

Here's who I'm pretty sure showed up:
Timberwolf
Sun Boy
Star Boy
Dawnstar
Light Lass
Element Lad
Ultra Boy
Phantom Girl
Cosmic Boy
Brainy
Invisible Kid (Deux!)
Wildfire
Blok
Dream Girl
Superman
White Witch
Shadow Lass

I know I've missed a few but I haven't read it in a while. Thanks in advance!

(Did you mean, the Legionnaires who were active during the GDS, or who were there for the final confrontation at the end? I'll answer it as if you meant 'active during the GDS'.)

Not Superman but Superboy, if it makes any difference to you. Supergirl, also.

There were others. Saturn Girl, Mon-El, Colossal Boy, Karate Kid, Projectra, Bouncing Boy, presumably Duo Damsel... am I missing anyone?

In addition, the Wanderers, the Subs, Dev-Em and the Heroes of Lallor chipped in.

Shrinking Violet was not there. It looked like she was, but it was really Yera.

Chameleon Boy was not there. He was in the story, but he was incarcerated on Takron-Galtos at the time.

Lightning Lad.


Virtually everyone was involved except Violet, Cham, and Matter Eater Lad, who were all incarcerated at the time.

Can't believe you forgot Garth, MEL. He resigned as leader three issues before GDS, succumbed to severe electrical dysfunction of the brain prior to the first issue (stated in the first issue of GDS that he collapsed that morning, happened off-panel) then came out of it to save Imra from Tasmia's darkened ancestor in the back-up story to the second issue.

And suffered Darksied's wrath and curse in one of the epilogs.

The reserves were called in as well including BB and DD

Thanks folks, that's helps a lot! I'll post my results here soon. I didn't forget LL Scott, I remembered him being knocked out but forget that he woke up in the end smile

Hey, I'm interested in anyone that can name the latter! My TPB is at my parents and I'm far too lazy to try and think about it laugh

Who actually saw Darkseid and battled him? That would be a hell of a war story to tell to new Legionnaires later on...

Nice picture M-E LAd!

How could you have forgotten the great scene of Superboy & Supergirl both punching Darkseid?
