Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Need A Legion Reference? Post Here

Ok, quick Ferro Lad question....in order to posses his Super Strength, does he need to have turned invulnerable or can he be super strong without turning his body to iron? Do we have any strict DC ruling on this?

He's shown in the cartoon once using super-strength while not in iron form, but I honestly thought that was an error.

Unless smacked over the head with a contrary canonical instance, I'd say that, in human form, he's only human-strong and human-tough.

Nah, later on Trudy becomes white with red hair. Besides, either way, that* postdates Lgs Annual #1 by half a decade.

*"That" being from from Worlds #1 (M'Onel spotlight), not SF&O #2 (the Blight introduction issue)

Of course, as long-term fans of Legion World know, Trudy Trusoe is a rebooted version of Tina Truth! I therefore officially proclaim this the Arthurian Tina Truth!

Thanks set, I have reviewed every Ferro Lad source I fan find and I don't see anywhere where he uses his strength without being in iron form. So I'll go with that.

*delete*

Thank you very much, that sounds like a the ruling I was looking for; and so it shall be done.

Does anyone have any decent scans of Chuck Taine in his red jacket? I mean, before Legionnaires was cancelled?

Thanks in advance.

There are a couple here , but none really that high-quality.

Thanks, but I've been there.

How's this?

Thanks!

My pleasure

I am looking fo Legion super-villains to use in an upcoming game. I ran across a post on the Internet about Illegal Parking Lad. It said that he is a villain of the Legion of Substitutes. Does anyone here know what his powers are?

Never heard of him before and did some research. The only thing I can find on him is that he seems to originate from a Legion RPG group as far back as 2007 and is a fan creation. A post read, "No one's sure exactly what Illegal Parking Lad's power is, but one can presume it has something to do with the ability to park illegally." [ link ]

Do we have any offical determination on the extent of Matter-Eather Lad's power? I know that he ate the Miricle Machine and suffered insanity becuase of it.

Are there any known substances he cannot eat through? Intetron for example?

What are his limitations to how much area he can consume in one sitting? (I know of the grain bin story).

How thick of material? I would assume there is no limit to thickness, just potential hardness?

I'm also assuming if he can't get his mouth around it, he can't eat it. If that is the case, he wouldn't be able to eat through a wall though.

Thoughts please. I have a player who wants to take Tenzil as one of his characters for my Legion of Super-Heroes RPG and I need to do the appropriate prep work.

He can consume any known substance (solid, liquid, gas) with the exception of organic material from his own homeworld, and a substance called magnozite, which is made of the most poisonous materials in the galaxy. He has specifically been shown to eat inertron. He has, on at least one occasion, been shown to consume energy beams as well as matter.

He can consume basically an unlimited amount of matter at super-speed. He has been shown to hollow out meteors and eat a lengthy underground tunnel in a matter of minutes. His body "acts as a nuclear furnace", converting to the matter to energy as he eats. Normally, the energy is harmlessly dispersed into the atmosphere.

Presumably, he is going to need to be able to get his jaw around something in order to eat it. On the cartoon, at least, his jaw actually seems to open wider than a normal humans, but that's never been confirmed in the comics, though he is seen biting into fairly smooth surfaces on occasion.

He can also analyze the composition of substances he eats, probably because he has a better developed sense of taste than normal humans.

Does anyone have a list, and maybe scans, of all the Legion ex boyfriends and girlfriends?

As a start, the Silver Age Legion site includes a 'relationships' section with each Legion profile that could give you some information about the various people dated, both civilian and Legionnaire, during the 60s. Some have pictures of the civilian flings.

There's also EDE's old Legion Love Lives project . No pictures, but a comprehensive list across the realities of who liked or dated who.

If you need more info or pics of anybody in particular, let me know.

Well, my interest was the girlfriends from the 60s and 70s. Iresa, Marya, Myla, Sinde... I want to start another sub-project with my commissions by getting Legion Girlfriends.

I've been to the Silver Age Legion site a lot. Even before I really got into the Legion. But even though they gave the site a makeover some sections I still can't go to.

EDE's thread is really helpful. Thanks Future.

Hmm... it wouldn't be a bad idea to update that thread, perhaps adding some pictures as well.

I'd also like to do an Encyclopedic listing of Legionnaire family members at some point.

BTW, Eryk, wasn't that pink-skinned stalker of Inferno's named Shadi?

Maybe. It's been ages since I've looked at those issues.

My bad. Her name was Sadi. I just checked the issue.
