Great! - But what's the connection?
I'm blanking on any specific adventure that involved them all and only them.
Mon and Jan both first joined/applied under pseudonyms, but not Cham or Thom. Mon and Thom first appeared in Superboy stories but not Cham (Supergirl story) or Jan (Legion Adventure). Mon, Jan and Cham all had devastation visit their homeworlds but not Thom.
Sorry I'm drawing a blank. Could I have a clue?

no sorries needed. this may be a bit specific. you are very much on the right track re a specific adventure - or at least, a specific adventure that did NOT involve them...

Wow. That should be a great clue, but I'm still blanking. Sounds like some adventure where those four were out of it for some reason - ill, incapacitated, unavailable for other reasons?
Hmm. Did Universo use those four as his enforcers when Saturn Girl came to face him down?

you are very much on the right track, stile! an adventure where these 4 were not included not Universo though. a hint: it was a Reboot story. please do let me know if you want to guess still, or to give up. it's not like the Wheel of Fortune thread where eventually, guessing will lead to the correct answer

My Reboot knowledge or lack thereof is going to shoot me in the foot again I think.
Not the Fatal Five fight as I remember Star Boy having a big part in that. Not Mordru as I am pretty sure Jan was involved in crafting the hemispheres to entomb him. I could see it being sometime when Lar was grounded or in hiding, Thom had his arms broken, and Jan and Cham were off visiting their homeworlds but I can't think of it.
Sorry I pass.

no apologies needed!! if you don't know, you don't know. but, you showed great deductive skills in cottoning on that it was something these 4 were excluded from, so you've "earned" the next round for sure!
it was during Legionnaires 41-42, just after about half the team was sent back to the 20th century. Then more than half of those remaining in the 30th century were kidnapped by Mysa. We get a scene with Chameleon, Star Boy, Element Lad and M'Onel searching for their teammates, and remarking that they're the only Legionnaires left!

Ah ok. That makes sense. Good connection, even if I still can't remember it. New group soon.

thanks, stile yeah, it was for just a blink in the Legion's history... I was thinking about the connections, I usually go for characters in a story because it's easier for me (but harder for others). sometimes I'll think of a connection that's more about traits (e.g., X Legionnaires who can fly unaided), but I often end up missing someone...

I am thinking of a group of 13(!) legionnaires who have something in common.
(We'll see how this goes. I can use additional criteria to trim it down if necessary.)
