In case you're interested, here's the cover of the upcoming Titans East special with Power Boy front and center. That's him with the cut out shirt, showing off his hairy chest like a male version of Power Girl. laugh

Could someone please post a big scan (~150dpi) of the Workforcers' holograms on pg 2 of Legionnaires #69?

I've posted the abovementioned article on Ferro Lad, here . Every now and then I come up with an insight or two that I'm particularly proud of, and this is one of those times.

What exactly were the tax reasons that the pre-Crisis Legion of Super-Heroes couldn't have more than 25 members?

H at the excellent website The Comic Treadmill just asked me something. In this article he was going over some Silver Age Legion stories, and a guy in the comments brought up this point:

In the last panel of the Bouncing Boy story in Adventure #301, there's a guy with a brown shirt who's determined to join the Legion. He looks more than a little like Matter-Eater Lad in a different outfit. Is there any kind of consensus in Legion fandom about whether it's him or not? Or, if not M-E Lad, who he is?

I'm sure this isn't the first time this has come up.

Too low, but thanks anyway.

A kind soul sent me a big scan though - I wanted it for the Radion pic for his profile here: http://www.legionclubhouse.com/wiki/index.php?title=Radion

Incidentally, if CMK is looking - where did Particon joining the Amazers come from?

It's not. I forget where I first read it though. I'll post it, if I come across it again.

As I recall some sources (WWitLSH maybe?) list this as Tenzil's first appearance.

Basically there was some sort of (excessive) tax on any private club with more than twenty-five members. It actually brings up a lot of issues regarding freedom of association in the thirtieth-century, but they were never really explored.

I read somewhere there was something resembling a Wildstorm Legion. Characters from the Wildstorm universe fought super-powered youths from the future. Is this true and if it is true where did that story appear?

I recently picked up Legion: Science Police #1. I wasn't really impressed by it, and after reading it I can't really tell you what it was all about. But did Saturn Girl really quit the Legion for a while there to join the SPs? If so, when did that happen in the continuity of the main titles?

It happened during the Dark Circle story, which was (IIRC) issues 104-106 of the LSH title, and 63-65 of the Legionnaires title. The United Planets were forced to put Durla under quarantine and the only way Legionnaires could get down there was to visibly "quit" the Legion and make Science Police officers of themselves.

IIRC, not only Saturn Girl, but also Sensor, Invisible Kid and Gates went undercover as Science Police officers.

I've heard this as well but have never had it confirmed. Maybe someone here can do so.

And Gates was so traumatised by the experience, he needed to get Tenzil to eat the uniform before he could sleep.

Thanks, Vee. As an AR fan I'd like to get that "appearance" too, if it's there. And what with the Wildstorm universe being a part of the 52 (as I've heard), another Legion may be there too.

Scans have been posted of it on here before, but I can't find them just now.

It's a Supreme/Kid Supreme thing, from or after Alan Moore's reboot, called (google says) the League of Infinity. They're based on a spiral staircase that runs through time, so that at one point Kid Supreme sees his adult self (Supreme) at a different point.

You're referring to the League of Infinity (I need to post the other stories).

But, there's also the Authority Legion-analogues .

Ah! Thanks, guys. Yeah, I meant the Authority analogues. The League of Infinity and Moore's Supreme was great and loved that title, especially the "retro" art in many issues.

What's in LSHv4 Annual 6? I know it comes right in the middle of the White Triangle story, but is it an important part of that story? The cover suggests it's just a collection of origin stories.

It is. Shvaughn Erin is assigned as Legion Liaison and she decides to look up information about the team which leads into various origins.

I can only remember Kinetix & Leviathon's off the top of my head.
