Lyle and M'rissey do look too alike. I have a feeling Lightning Lad might not be leading too much longer.

LIGHT LASS: I couldn't figure out at first why Ayla didn't use her anti-grav powers when she was tied up -- but I guess it's because guns were aimed at her teammates, and if she moved they'd be blasted to smithereens. That's the only explanation I can think of. Being tied up shouldn't prevent Legionnaires who have energy, elemental or mystical powers from using them.
Great. Point. Why *didn't* she use her powers? I can see a certain period of grogginess. Was she scoping things out?

SATURN GIRL: The several Pieta scenes make her appear a Madonna of sorts (not the singer from Detroit). Shooter may be trying to endear her to the audience before she gets kicked out on her butt.
These scenes hardly had the dramatic weight to merit Pieta poses. But that's what they were.

ULTRA BOY - Let me tell you from a girl's perspective -- we all know Jo is a big, fat jerk but we just *have to* to rub against that body. It's a biological mandate.
Some boys would agree. Some girls wouldn't, too.

ELEMENT LAD - They have to do a lot better than a recolored costume...like maybe an actual spotlight story.
I'd be happy with some more scenes in that dorm apartment!
