When Computo took over Legion HQ Shvaughn Erin was trapped inside with which two legionnaires?

yeah, that was quite a scene! Go Vi! (I also think it was well-established by the 3 founders' scientific research that none of the Servants were truly alive, which let the Legionnaires destroy them with impunity)

but yeah, and the revelation that Yera was actually the one doing a lot of these, paved the way for her Retroboot Legion membership I guess

yeah, I remember Shady complaining a lot and not really helping (though to be fair, there wasn't much her shadow powers could do I guess...)

that was quite the story, with Legionnaires off in deathtraps here and there...

Doing another COMPUTO one, with the Reboot version they figured that COMPUTO could not directly access Triad's or Cosmic Boy's memories, despite possessing them and being able to access their powers. In the final battle, the Legionnaires distracted COMPUTO by using Sensor's illusions to "switch" powers. Name at least one of the switched pairs (e.g., Sun Boy and Polar Boy switch powers)

Huh, could have sworn that someone was invisibly shooting lightning.

Sensor and Cosmic Boy, maybe?

The lightning might have been in the background art smile

While Sensor did copy Cosmic Boy's power, Cosmic Boy was not shown using any illusions - his caption just says, "Cosmic Boy watches, smiling peacefully". So not actually a swap.

also no, the swaps were all between Team30 Legionnaires, because COMPUTO already knew what each of the Team20s could be. the illusion swaps were done t confuse COMPUTO.

nope, nope, nope and nope

also, GL, you made two guesses (almost) in a row, though neither was correct

recap:

Doing another COMPUTO one, with the Reboot version they figured that COMPUTO could not directly access Triad's or Cosmic Boy's memories, despite possessing them and being able to access their powers. In the final battle, the Legionnaires distracted COMPUTO by using Sensor's illusions to "switch" powers. Name at least one of the switched pairs (e.g., Sun Boy and Polar Boy switch powers)

Note: all the swaps were between "Team 30" Legionnaires

Not:

- Live Wire/ Invisible Kid
- Sensor / Cosmic Boy (we see Sensor using Cos' powers, but not the other way around)
- Cham / Brainiac 5
- Live Wire / Cos
- Star Boy / Umbra
- Kinetix / Live Wire

Yes, I realized you had ruled out Cos earlier, so I threw another guess in there. smile

How about Vi/Kinetix?

yup, that was one of them!

over to you GL.

here's the full breakdown of the illusion:

1) Kinetix (grows to colossal size), and Violet (agitates the molecules of COMPUTO's armor)
2) Star Boy (transmutes a section of its armor), and Element Lad (blasts it with electric vision)
3) Live Wire (cloaks its visual receptors in blackness), and Umbra (bombards it with lightning)
4) Invisible Kid (dazzles it with super-speed), and XS (invisibly yanks at its Mother Box)
5) Monstress (transforms into a ferocious beast); although not technically a paired switch as Chameleon is absent from the splash page (maybe they could not figure out how to add Cham with super strength in? though it's odd as they have Violet-as-Kinetix and XS-as-Lyle both actually touching COMPUTO, but I guess punching COMPUTO at the same time would be... yeah not sure)
6) Sensor (presses the attack with magnetism), though as mentioned above not really a switch with Cosmic Boy (who just watches, smiling peacefully)

and M'Onel was the only then-Legionnaire absent, he was left behind in the 30th century

The lesson in all this is to go with the obvious couple choice. wink

Okay, what was an angry parent tearing up when they found out their child was a fan of the Legion?

Good guess, but nope.

And a bit of clarification - there are several things being torn up, but there is one specific item that wins the question.
