I think this game got eaten in the GLWBOO3003, so let's start over.
Simple rules. Just repond to the word posted with the first Legion related word, or phrase, that comes to mind.
Feel free to post why the particular word, or phrase, leaps to mind.
I'll start
TYROC

urp, I have no idea what to do with that. Tape recorders... well, I recall an early Tyroc appearance (#222?) featured his voice being recorded. The only other memorable thing about that issue, if I am even thinking of the right one, is that it had a Chuck & Lu back-up. Loved Lu's bronze age costume, so...

Duo Damsel's split costume. That's the first Cockrum memory that comes to mind because it was such a cool costume. Impractical, but cool.

 How did you get Spaceopoly Lad out of Polar Boy? Is Spaceopoly Lad even a real character, or something the fans devised?

Help file quote: Spaceopoly Lad
Spaceopoly Lad is a being from Tartarus with the power of extreme patience and superb powers of concentration which enables him to finish every game of Spaceopoly that he starts. He was discovered in 2995 by Brek Bannin, the royal super-powers trainer, and brought into his secret group to help stop Evillo from controlling the planet. He was supposed to engage Evillo in a game of Spaceopoly to distract him from the actions of the group's other members, but Evillo was warned by his sentries and left the game. Spaceopoly Lad finished the game while the others were fighting Evillo's robotic skeleton, and was awarded Tartarus's highest honor, the Order of the Dead Vampire Head, and hired to be part of the planet's elite defense team (Legion of Super-Heroes (3rd series) # 49).

Oh, well that explains that then. Sadly, these issues were released during a poriod when I did not have access to a Comics Shop. I have the issues, but got them out of back issues bins and onyl skimmed them as I did not buy them in order. Now that I do have the complete run, I really ought to sit down one of these days a read the whole thing straight through. Ya know, I always thought you guys made up Chet and Pam too....

ah....I was thinking about putting either Pete Ross or Lana Lang...then suddenly decided to go with Ma and Pa Kent...because I was thinking of LSH #259, the "saddest day ever in the Legion's history" which Superboy had to resign from the Legion.
Anyway, as for Pete Ross...
