Fingerprinting is an important contemporary tool in crime fighting--what Legion case was solved by this technique?

Hint:Actually it was a lack of said fingerprints wich led Brainy to the true culprit.

Ohhh...now I think I know. You are talking about when the Legion thought Timber Wolf was a criminal - even though it was the android Karth Arn who was the bad guy.

Correct. The Legion learned that androids do not have fingerprints to leave behind. Your turn LR.

Devlin's allergy to the bees (mentioned recently) might have saved him from returning to the Winath plantation and encountering Roxxas.

I understand why no one has answered this question - this is taken from an utterly forgettable story.

I remember Bouncing Boy sneezing his way to victory over the Hunter, but I think that was a cold, not an allergy.

OK, time for a hint...this was a short story, and the other 2 Legionnaires featured were Brainiac 5 and Matter-Eater Lad.

I think I know the story you're talking about - it's the one where Brainy goes to get Matter-Eater Lad from the asylum, and one of the doctors went bad, right? Was Sun Boy the other Legionnaire in that story?

Actually, it was Element Lad. His intense Trommian allergy to pollen woke him up so he could save them from a contracting force field. The floor is open to anyone to ask a question.

I'll continue this here:

Who really won the Legion leader election when Wildfire became leader, and why did he or she not take that post?

Superboy "won", receiving the most votes, even though he wasn't eligible. The Leader must be a permanent resident of the 30th Century. Clark, of course, was not.
IIRC, Superboy planned to take Wildfgire's place in one of his containment suits, but was foiled. I don't remember how or by whom.

(This was one of the first comic books I ever bought!)

:fanboy:

(There should be a graemlin for "Fan Boy".)

Abidjan may have been absorbed by this "New City", just as muct of the Amercan North Atlantic coast was absorbed by Metropolis by the 30th Century.

I just re-read some of the Levitz era, and his hometown/city is indeed referred to as Abidjan.


The childhood friend Exnihil never had.

According to LSH #57, written by Levitz, its Angi, "one of the so-called 'New Cities' of Africa." I assume this covers all or most of Cote d'Ivoire.

Next question goes to CMK, Kent, or whomever.
