Yes! Gim was running in the gym (both pronounced the same!) to get his stress out, although others were seen doing other exercises. So Ibby was on the right "track" from the get go. Hah. Over to you!

haha love the puns
not sure if it was the same scene, but I remember Dirk trying to keep pace - and failing miserably. It did make sense that someone with a ranged power, would not be as athletic as someone with a more physical power

True, and also Gim probably had a physical fitness regimen since his time as a Science Police cadet even before getting his powers, so Dirk was likely not as fit as he was.

Also, Dirk's a partier. He only gets his exercise through sex, so it makes sense he can't keep up.

now if it were horizontal...
the Science Police connection is a good thought. I appreciated that Reboot Imra was shown with good combat skills, due to her time with the Science Police. (we later see Dyrk Magz getting some combat skills, but we sadly never see if Kinetix developed them during her stint!!)
oh yes, I have to ask a question too!
When the Reboot Legion first fights the Fatal Five, the fight ends with all the Legionnaires present down except for one.
Who is the last Legionnaire standing?

I'm pretty sure Chaim's correct here. but we sadly never see if Kinetix developed them during her stint!! She could fling scalding hot coffee on to the enemy!

it was Gates! I was just thinking that we never actually see Lyle go down in battle, but down he went... and yes... powerful telekinetic, and the Science Police use her to fetch coffee...

Which three Legionnaires in the Reboot era had a sibling who was a member of a different super-heroic team?

I feel like there may be a trick here in this question... LOL
Okay so the obvious one here is Spark, since Livewire was a Workforce member, so that's one.
Then there are the Cullens - so James' sister Jazmin was an Amazer after James went to the Legion. That's two.
The only "third" one I can think of would be one of Tinya's triplicated bodies, specfically the one who was Phase in L.E.G.I.O.N.

The third would be Leviathan, whose sister was in the Ringers.

You know... I've never actually read that mini, so after I posted I started having second thoughts as to whether I was remembering that fact correctly!

I always forget that mini exists. LOL
Really never understood why they published that or the Inferno mini...

I skimmed through that mini... it was ok. a bit forgettable.
the Inferno (Sandy) mini though... so much navel-gazing. bit of a waste of time. though I would recommend it to an Inferno fan.

It's so weird that they would give Inferno her own mini and then... nothing. She just disappears to make an occasional cameo appearance.

Mostly in crowd scenes, too. She saw some action in Young Justice, and went to - and left - a Titans tryout, I think.

I will confirm that there was indeed a waterfall, but we'll see if someone else can get what's special about it.

Oh hecks... Memory... Cell... Straining...
A powersphere was one, I'm pretty sure?
Weather control?
The waterfall was in reverse?
A tunnel through the Earth is another one I'm pretty sure of. Because it wasn't the one from Supergirl's early Legion story.
Something encased in Inertron? Or the Inertron itself?

That gives us:
1. The Reverse Waterfall, which has turned the Sahara Desert into fertile farmland.
2. The fusion-powersphere, which I believe was encased in inertron
3. The Wind/Weather control system
4.The tunnel through the Earth.
The latter three are the ones that have become the most ingrained in Legion lore.
There's three more.

Figures I'd get the easy ones I nearly said some sort of memorial. Not Mount Rushmore but some sort of commemoration? Maybe that can jog someone's memory. Too early for the polymer shield, but was there some sort of planetary force field? Levitating buildings also comes to mind. Did he try and steal the UP HQ?
