Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly The NON-LEGION comics trivia thread!!! Round two

Wow...how about that. Funny thing is, I either asked, or maybe just thought about asking, this same question a few years ago when I was rereading my FF collection. I felt silly that I couldn't remember the answer. OK, new question...

In the Avengers comic, it was stated that a particular supervillain was capable of beating Bobby Fischer at chess. He even used a chess board to escape prison. (The supervillain, not Fischer.) Which villain was it?

OK, a hint..his first name is Bentley.

Taskmaster?

Nope...here's a big hint. He was leader of the group that tried to recruit Captain Ultra.

Wizard, then.

Thank you, Chaim. Yes, it was the Wizard. You're up!

Who was/were the villain(s) in the last JLA-JSA team-up before the Crisis on Infinite Earths killed that annual tradition?

Was it the Crime Syndicate (again)?

No.

Was that the one with Darkseid?

Was it that really awful one (by Kurt Busiek I think) about some telepathic 'Family' or something. I don't remember much about it other than it sucked and Supergirl guest-starred.

Was it the villains 3? Rast, Ghast ,amd Abanther somebody? You know, the 3 demons?

Not the Demons 3 (Abnegazar, Rath and Gast), they were in the JLA-JSA-Legion crossover, a good number of years before the last, and not, Darkseid, who was in the JLA-JSA-(boy, this will be a surprise)New Gods crossover, which was also not remotely the last.

Blacula is close - that one was second-to-last. There was one more the following year.

Hint: Infinity, Inc. was the guest starring team. I believe the story crossed over into an issue of their book as well.

The Injustice Society?

Rumplestilskin?

Nope, and nope ha ha.

(Hmm, that's one guy we haven't seen in Fables yet.)

Was it Commander Steel? I seem to remember him going villainous for a moment there and he could probably connect all three of those teams.

Yep, Commander Steel was the villain, and Mekanique was in it with him.

Your turn, Blacula.

Sticking with the JSA theme -

Who was their first member to resign?

Wonder Woman?

Flash (Jay Garrick)

Flash it was. Your Q Q.

What was the name of the village the Doom Patrol sacrificed themselves for and in what state was it?

Happy Harbor, Rhode Island

Nope, that was where the JLA first had their headquarters.
