Nope. Brainy of course had this rivalry thingie going on with Lyle in the Reboot, but he never outright dissed Lye's intelligence like that
Whose intelligence did Brainiac 5 once insult by saying "happily _______, thinking is not a skill we require of you."?
Clue: It was a male Legionnaire, who Brainy needed to help make something.
Not
Ferro
Star Boy
Gates
Ultra Boy

CK has it - it was Element Lad.
Brainiac 5 told Jan to make tarnium. Jan asked, "isn't this only for stargates?" Jan got offended, Lyle backed him up, and brokered peace between them

Which two people were featured in Shvaughn Erin's journal despite the fact that Shvaughn could not possibly have witnessed the scene in question, and I (for one) can't imagine how she might have known about it even second, third, etc, hand?

Nice! yeah, that was a really odd one.
there was also the LEGION scene, but Phase (through Tinya after being merged) and Officer Taptree could have told Shvaughn about it after.
and the Koko scene, Shvaughn could have found out about it through... i dunno, surveillance footage
that leaves Winema/Tinya's dad, who were 1000 years in the future...
ok lessee...
Some Legionnaires once took odd jobs. Which Legionnaire was fired for his "organizational skills"?

If this was during the 20th Century exile might it have been Brainy? (Although I think he got in to more trouble from blowing up labs and "borrowing" equipment.)

No, it wasn't Brainy. He wasn't one of those who took an odd job then, but you have the context right: the 20th century exile

It was indeed Gates! He joined a delivery company (makes sense for a teleporter no?) When he found out how poorly paid, and how few benefits, his colleagues had... he organized a protest and a union. The joke was, in his interview he talked about his organizational skills... and he ended up organizing the employees

In the Legion story "War or the Wraith-Mates", Karate Kid, Princess Projectra and Shadow Lass wear costumes designed by fans which are then (quite justifiably) never seen again during a Legion mission. These costumes were first displayed in a special feature in a giant-sized comic reprinting a major story Legion story arc. What story arc was that?

Gaseous Lad has it! Adventure Comics # 403 reprinted that full arc, from Lightning Lad's death issue, to Mon-El's replacement of him on the roster, to Lightning Lass's debut pretending to be him, to Proty's sacrifice. And also had some pages showing the most ugly uniforms that have ever appeared on Legionnaires' bodies.

So I was thrown off by the question, as I didn't realize any of those horrid uniforms actually made it into any stories. I'm very familiar with the famous first page of these designs, as the Shrinking Violet costume is burned into my memory, but it took me a bit to make the connection. As soon as I saw the cover to the comic, with the iconic image of the Legionnaires standing around Lightning Lad, then it all came back. ![[Linked Image from ultraboy8888.files.wordpress.com]](https://ultraboy8888.files.wordpress.com/2014/09/adv_403___lsh_001.png) In all fairness, some of the ones on this page aren't THAT bad (and Triplicate Girl's foreshadows the Reboot Triad in some ways). But Vi? Come on, did Dawnstar design that? Okay to the next question: Since we are on the subject of dead Legionnaires, who was the second Legion member killed in the line of duty?

yeah, some of these are decent (Lu's and Ayla's), but some like Vi's... and Tinya's is so impractical!!! that giant medallion only works if it's a holo Second Legionnaire killed in duty? trick question I think officially, Triplicate Girl's third body?

Yeah I think the crazier designs are on the other pages. I dunno, PG's costume is fine, but maybe the medallion works like Bendis' PG HaloHoop. And it is NOT Triplicate Girl's third body.
