They were! For details check out Legion of Superheroes #263!
I especially like Ultra Boy's hunky barrel chested dad and Shady's sexy mom!
Cham's aunty and Vi's ma and pa were no Plain Janes either!

Luornu's mom (I think she actually appeared later) was a hottie too IIRC!
And you're right about Jo and Shady's parents--hot damn, we see where they get it from! I'm interested in the previously untold 'Super Sexy Adventures of the 2940's, featuring the Legionnaires parents"!

You know... somehow it wouldn't surprise me if the "Super-Sexy Adventures of the 2940s" were retconned into Legion history...
Oddly enough, I actually wouldn't be all that opposed to it, either.

Virile young Marla Latham!
Shady's Hot Mama!
Crazykewl Brainiac Four!

That's just for starters!

Great Scott!
It just occurred to me...
The Adv. #247 Legion is the Super-Sexy Adventurers of th 2940s! Thus explaining why the Legion introduced themselves to Supergirl as the children of the originals!

Okay, so I'm still working out the details of this, but:
The original LSH, the Super-Sexy Adventurers of the 2940s, originally recruited Superboy as an honorary member during their brief, untold history!
When Rokk, Imra, and Garth later save the life of R. J. Brande, he is inspired by his earlier career with the SSAot2940s to suggest they form a new Legion. They originally recruit Supergirl instead of Superboy, though eventually they bring Superboy in as a full-fledged member. At some point early in the Legion history, something happens which causes everyone to forget about the SSAot2940s (perhaps the Legion's first encounter with the Time Trapper?).

I suspect Brin's parents may have been antagonists to the SSAot2940's since they have a mad-scientist type nature to them.
Be sure to grab a fast lunch at your local NIFTY BURGERS, the celebrated Venturan franchise!

I have a theory that the SSAot2940s version of Saturn Girl was Imra's aunt that she was named after!
Hmm... I wonder if Hu Krinn was space-helmeted Cosmic Boy?
And... who was Lightning Boy? Papa Ranzz? Papa Ranzz's twin brother? Maybe Storm Boy's father?

Other candidate members for the SSAot2940s:
One of Dawnstar's parents, either Mist-Rider of Moonwalker. I'm kind of inclined to go with Moonwalker, her mother.
Kiwa Nal, Nura and Mysa's mother.
One of Jan Arrah's parents, either Arn or Valla Arrah. I kind of like the idea of an Element Lass.
Maybe Ferro Lad's mother? She was a famous actress.
White Toshi (later Karate Kid's Sensei)
Arn Digby
One of Star Boy's astronomer parents?
Derek Morgna?
One of Ultra Boy's parents?

Ultra Boy's Dad could be a major thug or crook and his mother could be a heroine. Years later, his Dad will reform and marry his mother...

Hmm... not sure I like this idea, but another possible member would be the Flash (Barry Allen).

Also, we wouldn't want to roll this one out just yet, waiting until at least three years into their existence, but Jor-El and Lara *must* have met them somehow, someway at some point.

Hmm... no doubt there is a whole hidden dimension to the whole "Dagon the Avenger" storyline. He was no doubt striking back against members of the SSAot2940s!

Rereading some old issues, I came across this picture of Dawnstar's mother, Moonwalker. Certainly a candidate for hot Legion parents. ![[Linked Image]](http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/4464/moonwalker.png)
