Oooh nice. I read about this on Dc Cosmic Teams, but those issues were kind of jumbled together
Did Blok reflect the bandits' blasts at them?

This story was fairly fresh in my mind for some reason Lessee.... When M'Onel rescued RJ Brande and Marla Latham from the Bizarro Legion, RJ asked if perhaps M'On should stay back and help his teammates fight the other Bizarros. Which Bizarro made M'Onel comment: "I think the others can handle themselves without me!" (paraphrased)

Nope, it wasn't Biz Briany (though Biz Brainy wasn't much help in that battle either, he spent much of it picking his ears!)

Also not Bizarro Ferro, who wasn't there.
Hint: this Bizarro was one of those with an "opposite" power to her/his Legionnaire counterpart

Nope, Cos wasn't in this story.
Another clue: this was a female Bizarro / female Legionnaire

Nope. Biz Zoe's powers were pretty much identical to the real Zoe's. This one had opposite powers

1) was female 2) had opposite powers to their Legionnaire counterpart
Not:

It's Bizarro Triad. Instead if triplicating, her body came apart into three pieces. It was odd the Kinetix had her "normal" powers. If it were truly opposite, you'd think her powers would take moving objects and make them stop or fall apart or something.

yes, you got it!
Love the dialogue there.
Biz Triad: Triad! You think you so big because you can split into three! That am stupid power!
Triad: Oh, you got a better one?
Biz Triad: Do math, stupid! Three girls helpless against three-thirds of girl! *uses power to divide body into three*
Triad: ewwwwwwwww!!!!!

IIRC, she threw her head at Triad. Okay next Q - Where did Evolvo create the OmniScanner?

No this would have been much later, during the Anomaly time frame.

In McCauley Industries' men's bathroom also yes, Biz Triad threw her head at one point! I think it was at Ferro, though I know the Bizarro story gets a lot of flak, but I did enjoy the stupidity of it. "Let's Leave, Legionnaires!"

That's correct! That little bit always seemed to be trivia-worthy.
Back to you, sir!

First time I saw it, I was like - how high-tech is this bathroom?? That Evolvo would use it as a lab?
lessee...
Whose Reboot Legion bio made Shvaughn Erin go from a team detractor to a team supporter?

She was being slowly convinced by their bios that they weren't quite the stupid glory seeking kids she had thought and Zoe's tale touched her but it was Gim's tale that took her from thinking he was a traitor to the SP's to proudly supporting the whole concept willing to own the nickname "Legion Lass".

Excellent summary, stile! Perfectly said. Yes, it was Gim's tale, which showed he quit the SP because his superior then had been a glory-seeking hound who sent a man to his death, while keeping Gim safe because he was good for optics.
Jenni's tale came before Zoe's, and Shvaughn thought she was quite plucky.
Context: Shvaughn had just been appointed Legion Liaison, and she and her fellow SPs thought it was horrible as they all had a poor opinion of the Legion at the time

I collected the first "yearish" of the Reboot before my comic hiatus and later managing to collect all the rest of the Reboot so that Annual I reread several times when I had no further Legion comics. Good use of an annual to summarise the team without being too much monologue I thought.
What is the reason Threeboot Brainiac 5 gives for being very dismissive of Light Lass and Star Boy - even more so than other members of the team, at least from his perspective?

LSH Annual 6 was a good one, still one of my faves Cham and others thought Brainy was dismissive of Ayla/Thom because their powers weren't "cool"... but instead, Brainy was dismissive of THEM. Their powers WERE cool, but Ayla/Thom didn't have the gravitas to use them. to paraphrase:: "imagine my shock and dismay at seeing Light Lass, the wielder of one of the most powerful forces in the universe, use her powers and then giggle about lingerie in the very next breath. Such a WASTE!"

Yep spot on. Stuck in my mind as being a good character moment for threeboot Brainy and showing a bit of how and why he acted to wards others. Still not fond of the character but the prose was good.
Take it away Ibby.
