Well, you might be interested in this thread by Future, which attempts to do much the same thing with micros.

Oooooh...that helps. That helps a LOT. Me likey. If I just knew what order each costume appeared, then I'd be set. laugh

I think Future generally shows the costumes in order of appearance, so you're all good.

I'm not sure if there was an earlier one, but LSH 80 page 11 is the first instance I've noticed after skimming through the first two years of issues.

Hmm... Missed that one when I was looking (and I even checked Impulse #25!). If that's the only use, as I think it is, it's kinda annoying - "Winema" is mocking her in that panel, so I doubt she went by the diminutive 'Jeannie". I was wondering about the spelling, if it was "Jean" or "Jeanne", but if there's nothing there's nowt.

Thanks anyway.

Could anyone tell me in which issue the "walking money" seen in the Legion first appeared?

We most commonly see the little, couple-inch-high "meeping" variety, but - if memory serves - when they first appeared they were much larger (like waist high) so I'm thinking it has to be early in Giffen's first run. Anyone know the exact issue?

I'm annoyed because I ought to know this.

I believe the waist-high walking money first appeared in the Adventure Era, and wasn't from Ventura.

The more familiar Venturan walking money first appeared in v3 #1 (in which Thom and Nura fight Micro Lad on Ventura).

Thanks, Eryk... the "Adventure Era" tip did it.

I can't find an image, but a google search indicates that the larger coins are "Barakian Living Money" from Adventure 309.

That kind of money (which was originally said to be from "Barak") first appeared in Adventure Comics # 309.

Ridiculously stupid request, but does anyone know of any references to food items in the 30th century? I'm writing a fic and I'd like the dish made to be with "futuristic" ingredients. So, does anyone remember anyone in the comics mentioning a food item that "doesn't exist" in the real world?

For you assistance I will love you long time. *wink wink nudge nudge*

Elvabird.

Plus Kono Juice and Silverale to drink.

And Bgztlian Blue is a type of ice cream, as I recall.

I believe there's an entry in the Legion Help File on food, but I don't have a copy on the computer I'm currently using.

Martian ice cream, which Superboy ate on his first trip to the 30th century.

Didn't see anything about food in the help file, but...

Soystix seems to be a popular fast food.

Brainy once likened the taste pf pizza to hatch sealant, so I don't know if hatch sealant's meant to be edible in the future!

Hi folks, say does anyone know what Supergirl's current status is with the Legion? What did DC do with her with their new 52?

So far Supergirl has not met the Legion in her timeline. Whether she is in the Legion's past has not been mentioned.

Can someone remind me what the members of the "Associated Planets" were? They were still a separate organization by the end of the reboot era, right?

Affiliated Planets, not Associated Planets.

The main members were Khundia [kicked out post-DCR], Elia*, Sklar (remains of), Thanagar (Hawkpeople), Winath and Xanthu, while Orando and Gil'D returned to the UP post-DCR; with SF&O #2 saying it "also includes" Aktar, Alkoz, Bismari, Brogg, J'ff'n (!), Karak, Lythyl, Nara, Olo, Plevitz (!!), Ronn, Soirreb-3, Torad and Zygarr.

*According to SF&O #2.

They weren't directly mentioned at all after DnA took over, unless you count the ruined Xanthu's alliance with the Khunds (Legion Worlds #4) and later petitioning to be allowed back in the U.P. (The Legion #15).
