Buncha random questions about Legion couples past;

I worked up a game setting awhile back involving the teenage kids of the original Legion team, and was trying to compile a list of Legion couples to work from. Anyone able to point out any possible combinations I missed?

Note that I'm skipping the whole threeboot thing, since this is a continuity spawned from the preboot / preCrisis team (with exceptions for Kid Quantum II or Shikari, both of whom I like!).

Definites -
*Lightning Lad & Saturn Girl
*Ultra Boy & Phantom Girl
Timber Wolf & Light Lass
Light Lass & Shrinking Violet
Shrinking Violet & Duplicate Boy
Colossal Boy & Yera Allon
Mon-El & Shadow Lass
Star Boy & Dream Girl
Cosmic Boy & Night Girl
Cosmic Boy & Kid Quantum II
Element Lad & Shvaugn/Sean Erin
Karate Kid & Princess Projectra
Wildfire & Dawnstar
Bouncing Boy & Duo Damsel / Lone Lass
*couples that actually had kid(s)

Possibles -
Saturn Girl & Ultra Boy?
Dream Girl & Atmos?
Phantom Girl & Timber Wolf?
Shrinking Violet & Colossal Boy?
Blok & the White Witch?
Sun Boy & Shrinking Violet?
Brainiac 5 & Invisible Kid?
Wildfire & Shikari?
Brainiac 5 & Supergirl?

Canonically, did Sun Boy, Chameleon Boy, Brainiac 5, Superboy, Tyroc, Invisible Kid II, Quislet, Polar Boy, Magnetic Kid, etc. ever actually date anyone in the Legionverse? I remember Vi feeling up Sun Boy during a game of D&D, and Brainiac flipping out during Crisis when Supergirl died, but I never really saw any evidence of actual date-age occuring... Jacques seemed fond of Mysa, but I don't recall that going anywhere either.

I've seen chat about Chemical King and Invisible Kid I, but wasn't IK I *long* dead by the time CK became a member? Or did they share a magic moment between cases of being dead during some reboot I missed?

And there are all those oddballs introduced when I was a Marvel zombie, like Gates, Gear, XS, Thunder, Snake-Sensor, Monstress, etc. that I don't know jack about. Did they date? Each other? No idea...

Lyle was far from dead when Condo became a member. CK became a member during the Adventure era in Adv # 371 - #372 (August/Septemebr 1968) and Lyle was killed by Validus in Superboy #203 (July 1974)

Also, Invisible Kid 2 (Jacques) and Infectuous Lass became a couple during their days in the anti-Earthgov undergraound and remained so when he became President.

Superboy dated Lana Lang who was a reserve member of the Legion as Insect Queen.

Brainy was often depicted as one of Kara's boyfriends.

Cosmic Boy and Night Girl did have a kid in the Giffen/Beirbaum era: Pol Jath Krinn.

The supposed Invisible Kid-Chemical King pairing seems to have grown out of "Invisible Invader," a short Legion story in Superboy # 176, when the two were depicted as close friends.

Later, a Secret Origins story revealed that Lyle was Chem's mentor, having befriended him when Chem was in isolation due to his powers and teaching him how to use them.

Brainiac 5 was clearly in love with Supergirl -- see "Brainiac 5's Secret Weakness" in Superboy # 204 -- and she had feelings for him, per "The Mutiny of the Super-Heroines" in Adventure # 368.

LOL. I was quite fond of the White Witch/Blok thing. ohwell they are not deemed worthy to be in this Legion.

I also don't mind the couples being redone. I think it has interesting possibilities.

Awesome, thanks for all the replies!

I had a bit of a break between the Steve Lightle-drawn era, and about nowish, so I had no idea about IK2 and Infectious Lass or Chameleon and Sparx! smile

Yes, but they thought he was too stiff.
