you got it!
Rokk said it was pure poison, but Imra said that in the short-term, fat and sugar will keep you alive as well as anything else
More hilarious was Gates' comment on girl scout cookies: "they're loaded with toxic refined sugar!"

Not who I was thinking of but definitely a good answer. I'll give you that one especially since I was thinking of Cham as Control from the same storyline. Take it away Ibby.

Ah! yeah I forgot Cham was similarly placed too!
let's see...
Gates once said, "Thanks for the encouragement, nasshead!" Whom was he addressing?

You got it!
Leviathan and Star Boy had been stunned fighting Validus. Gates comes over, and Leviathan says ?they sent the sprocking shirk-force??
Gates fires back with ?thanks for the encouragement, nasshead!? And alternates between distracting Validus and reviving Star Boy? and finally, Star Boy wakes up, sinks Validus away, saving the day.
Leviathan ends with ?my gosh, these two actually pulled it off??

I have to admit that I didn't remember the scene but thought that Gim and Gates tended to have a quarrelsome relationship.
Which legionnaire played a major role in their debut story and yet never said a word?

That's who I was thinking of. For most of the debut story of Sun Boy all we saw was a criminal pretending to be him. We only saw the real Dirk in the 30th Century in two panels on the last page (well a third panel shows his hand giving Superboy the secret Legion handshake) but he never says a word.
(Actually I have this wrong. This (Adventure Comics #290 November 1961) was the first time Superboy met Sun Boy and the first time we saw him as a legionnaire, but he also appeared in the Supergirl story in Action Comics #276 May 1961 as a Legion applicant (even had one line of dialogue) but failed that time as Supergirl and Brainiac 5 were admitted instead. Oops.)
Your turn Ibby.

my first guess was Ayla, but I think she spoke in her origin at the end. Then I remembered impostor Sun Boy Interesting story, that one! OK... in the Reboot, Legion HQ was left deserted when the Legionnaires went to fight the Sun-Eater (spoiler: it was fake). The Legion support staff defended it against an attack. Which support staff member got trampled by three dupes of him/herself?

Well specifically, Marla got trampled by doppelg?ngers of himself, Chuck and Tenzil. Is that what you were thinking of?

LOL - I was confused for a bit, as I know that three Chams popped up at some point, but he was on mission so he couldn't get trampled. :-)
OK - Who KO'd Princess Projectra to steal the Quintile Crystal?

I thought it was Black Mace in that Levitz story too, but that was some Brande papers I think instead of the Quintile Crystal.
Persuader?

Hmmm. Maybe a clue or two is in order.
The person in question is a Legionnaire

OK so this doesn't sound like the original Legion. Hmm. Sounds like something reboot Lyle might do, for some "good" reason. Invisible Kid?
