What about how Ayla was so clueless about Cham being her secret admirer, she had trouble accepting it at first....then got jealous as Cham and Sensor were getting closer...

Well, actually according to early twentieth century French existentialist theory, a woman sticking out her tongue at a man is a symbol of impotence and sexual inadequacy.

Considering Rokk's creepy relationship with super-stalker Lydda and Pol's even creepier relationship with his namesake Polla I think Ayla may have had something there...

I nominate this for my funniest post ever!

Somehow the Fat Trimming Ray has to factor here. Also, what effect must Nura's secret power-switch have had on Ayla? Also, what's up with Ayla's need to be nude? What about her hair color changes?

These are all parts of her persona that MUST mean *something!*

Or not...

This thread is proof the Ayla is the craziest Legionnaire of all. Unhinged? She makes Brainy look like 'Mr. I've got it all together'.

Let's not forget her over the top derision of Kid Quantum in the Reboot! What was *that* all about?

In fact, let's examine Rokk & Ayla's relationship in the reboot. She practically loved him like an older brother figure--substitute for Mekt? Or perhaps it was a more lustful, deep-seated sexual desire for Rokk?

Now take that into account when we look at the preboot versions, which ultimately would be quite similar, much like Earth-1 Superman and Earth-2 Superman were very similar. Preboot Ayla likely had very deep feelings towards Rokk. I suspect there was a long history of secret love & abuse between the two of them throughout the entire Adventure era, likely kept secret because of Garth. Neither was blameless.

Maybe Rokk's slapping of Ayla has it's roots in his deep-seated and long-frustated desire to slap *Garth?*

Heh, my long-held theory that Ayla was born Garth's identical (i.e. *male*) twin remains in play!

In fact, looking at the date on that post, it was in play before I even theorized it!

I'm that awesome.

Pure EVIL!!

This is why nobody should ever be forced to wear a giant feather emblem on their costume. It leads to a subsequent lifetime of overcompensating in the other direction. Womankind was not meant to dress as Care Bear--- OF SPACE!!

I mean, I did the same thing, and you can see how that turned out...

Despite knowing Light Lass is crazy on a level that only Pulsar Stargrave and Sun Emperor have achieved, I would likely still have dated her in high school and the first two years of college.

By then I would have decided she was too crazy for me and she would have decided I was too *male* for her.

You gotta give her one thing, though... no guy would ever have a problem getting it up for her!

"Wow! How thrilling...!"

I know that's what I'm thinking every time I French-kiss a lesbian...

<takes off lesbian costume>

Deeply closeted Ayla can't keep her paws off the other gal Legionnaires! Shameful!!

Tsk.

Oh, rhino. A little <strike>bromance</strike> womance among friends never hurt anyone!

Oh, c'mon! Even with the Care Bear logo, she's pretty easy on the eyes.

Throwing herself at Lone Wolf. Shameless!!

Ayla has one foot in the closet & the other foot on a banana peel!!

I remember that! It was from Ayla's Mary Lou Retton-as-a-suppressed-lesbian phase. (and apparently Vi's Chita Rivera-as-a-take-no-prisoners-one)

Ayla eyeballing Vi's artificial leg while talking about death & destruction. Kinky!!

The TMK take on Ayla remains my favorite portrayal of her.

Away with your snark, I say! I'm trying to luxuriate in the total absence of bared midriffs and you're ruining my moment!

Sheesh Ayla is looking mannish in that last panel!

Aw, shit! It's Garth!
