If I sing along to it, am I doing an Impressions impression?

Good thing it tried to impress instead of repress or supress.

I regressed in repressing my impressions to impress.

Almost sounds like a press gang to me.

A press gang sounds like the journalism or yearbook clubs in high school.
But with knives.

I live in a coastal town, but the only piracy here is probably the local pub illegally streaming football. There's not been a press gang since the local paper went digital.

I think Live Wire is a better name than Lightning Lad.

I agree - and it was going great until they double-used the name for the Superman villain.

I liked a lot of the new names introduced during SW6. Live Wire, Inferno, Alchemist, Triad, Gossamer, Apparition...

I think Gossamer was the only one that didn't work for me. Apparition was kind of on the bubble. Phase would have worked better, but that one was taken.

Apparition could have been better if it were shorter and spiffier. Gossamer worked for me because I read some kid's stories about gossamer before Valor was kind of meh for me; though I guess it fit the character's explorer nature. I liked Spark Leviathan was okay too.

Also a Spark fan. Leviathan is a bit of a mouthful for a code name. You want these to have 2, maybe three syllables max. Exactly why no one really called Vi by the whole thing outside of the roll call.

I was always thinking that they should have a hero named The Rhombic Triacontahedron Kid who would shoot 30-sided dice from his fingers.

But why did our three Legion founders:-
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Lass.
Antidisestablishmentarianism Damsel
The Rhombic Triacontahedron Kid
reject Superboy for membership?

If he had called himself Superstupendousamazingbrilliant Boy, we might be having a different conversation
