Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly Legionnaire Pair-ups

Two Legion women who carried the weight for the Legion-on-the-run stories at the end of TMK's run. Andromeda and Spider-Girl got along with everyone and were key team players, unlike almost all their teammates.

NEXT:
Computo II and Kid Quantum II

Both have been leaders of their respective teams, aside from having brothers who were also Legionnaires.

Next: Infectious Lass and Chameleon (Boy)

Both are from quarantined planets whose people prefer isolation (Somahtur and Durla).

Next: Chlorphyll Kid and Valor

Both are "seeders"; Chlorophyll Kid uses plant seeds in conjunction with his powers and Valor is the seeder of worlds.
Also, neither became active Legionnaires in their first appearances in the Legion comic. Valor/Mon held honorary statues first and Chlor was a Sub and then a reservist.

Next: Kinetix and Saturn Girl

Both had the personality of being assertive and confident. Very strong personalities.

Next: Matter-eater Lad and Bouncing Boy

Tenzil and Chuck were kidnapped by Starfinger I along with Lightning Lad. In addition, Tenzil & Chuck were two of the few Legion men who were married at Zero Hour.

NEXT: Bouncing Boy and Blok

Tough one.

Alternate versions of both Legionnaires appeared circa End of an Era: there was the SW6 Bouncing Boy and the Blok who was a member of the evil Legion of Mordru and Glorith.

Next: Gates and XS

Both Gates and XS accompanied Leviathan on a mission to protect a delegate whose government leaders were targeted for assassination, only to find out she was the killer.

Next: Invisible Kid and Chameleon

Lyle and Cham were very close friends in the early reboot. Unfortunately, the writers kinda forgot about this after the Emerald Vi storyline.

Next: Nightwind and Dawnstar

Spent time in the Legion Academy together, although it's hard to imagine Dawny getting too close to many back then.

Next: Dream Girl and Quislet?

There was an issue where they helped save some ambassadors/bigwigs (was it RJ Brande?) from attack by a group of missiles. Boy, Dream Girl's hand to hand skills were formidable and she had a good handle on how to effectively use Quislet's powers.

Next:

Kinetix and Apparition

There was that time we both told Andromeda off when she was backbiting Cham. Then that time I asked her how it was like being married to Jo now that she was tangible again. Oh, and that time she ed in battle against the Blighted because she ended up attacking a Blighted me!

Wow. We're actually pretty good friends!

Next:

Brainiac 5 and Shrinking Violet

In the cartoon Legion, they teamed up to save Lightning Lad and build his artificial arm. One of the best moments in the often unsatisfactory S2.

Next:

Tellus and Lightning Lass

(Agree that S2 as a whole wasn't quite as good as S1. I did like that S2 featured some background Legionnaires, like Shrinking Violet, Star Boy and Dream Girl, more).

Tellus and Lightning Lass, along with Magnetic Kid, had a mission to Braal (I think). Ayla paid more attention to Pol, though. And the three of them were sometimes regarded as "replacement" Legionnaires for the 3 founders because of their similar powers.

Oops, forgot to name a pair of Legionnaires.

Lightning Lad/Live Wire and Shrinking Violet

Both were impersonated by other people who later became Legionnaires themselves, Garth by Ayla and Vi by Yera.

Timber Wolf and Karate Kid

They were close enough that Karate Kid named Timber Wolf his heir and beneficiary... and also set a task for him in his will.

Next:

Phantom Girl/Apparition and Element Lad

Tinya and Jan both had black & white costumes in the reboot. They also were two of the Legionnaires who stopped Tyr's mobile warworld from merrily rampaging through the universe back in the 80s!

Next: Shrinking Violet & Projectra/Sensor Girl!

When Tenzil asked Vi out on a date, it was Projectra who helped Violet dress up and who subbed for her on Monitor Duty! I always thought it was cool that the Princess wasn't at all stuck-up or snobbish or a mean girl.

Next:

Gates and Brainiac 5

Oh, where do I begin? They used to snipe at each other all the time (Brainy saying Gates was wasting his intelligence on "mere opinions", with Gates shooting back - is that your opinion?)

And all that bickering during the Anomaly investigation, yeesh! Space is supposed to be silent.

Then they became the best of friends after that, with Gates visiting Brainy all the time. They kept heaping platitudes on each other. Strange, but sweet.

Next:

Wildfire and Cosmic Boy

They, along with Phantom Girl, Superboy and newcomer Invisible Kid II, were the first Legionnaires to encounter Darkseid's Servants of Darkness.

Karate Kid and Lightning Lad/Live Wire
