Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly The Non-Legion Comics Trivia Thread Pt 5

Garth?

Nope

The saved character was female

Celsius of the Doom Patrol?

Nope, you?re going a bit farther. This character is one you would expect underwater

I feel dumb. I meant the merman that supergirl met and occasionally dreamed about. I can?t remember his name. But that doesn?t work either. I remember the scene but can?t visualize who Lori saved. Maybe the female member of the sea devils. I think that is the group Dane for ranch led.

Mera?

You got it! It was Mera. Lori blasts some shadow demons who have Mera cornered, but cannot react in time to save herself... a heroic end indeed

Yay. Good one Paladin. I knew someone would get it sooner or later.

Cool! I figured it had to probably be a water-based character if Lori was involved (even before Ibby's hint), so it was an elimination process!

Anyhow, guys, give me a few days (max) to come up with something.....

Bump Paladin

Bump Lardy

Who were the last 4 new recruits to the Avengers before the team debuted its West Coast branch?

You may guess as many characters as have not been revealed to that point. The person to fill in the last slot(s) wins the right to ask the next trivia question!

1) US Agent
2) Mockingbird
3) Falcon
4) Moondragon

Tigra
She-Hulk
Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau)
Starfox

Ms Marvel (Carol Danvers)
Black Knight
Mantis
Jocasta

Got it all in one!

I obviously have not been reading this comics era haha

And I, obviously, had been

Since Monica was mentioned: The Wrecker and his Wrecking Crew once busted up New Orleans to capture her...purely by mistake. Who did the employer of the Wrecking Crew REALLY want, and who was that employer?

Hammerhead wanted Spider-Man?

Captain Mar-vell?

Neither of those, but Ibby is barking up the correct tree.

Were they after Carol Danvers/Ms. Marvel? Was Yon Rogg their employer?

It was indeed Carol Danvers the employer sent them after, he told them "Ms. Marvel" and they interpreted it as "Captain Marvel, female version." (Carol was going by "Warbird" at that time.)

The employer was not Yon-Rogg, but a different old foe of Carol's. Obscure person, so if by tonight no one remembers the story that clearly, I'll just give it to Paladin.

hee I thought it might have to do with code names. Poor Monica has been unlucky with hers through the years... so many others with similar ones

A fun consequence of Marvel Comics wanting to keep the trademark on the name "Captain Marvel" for a super-hero.
