I'd guess Violet from the story in which Gim dies.

And just to check off the clues:
Former Leader-- Thanks to the Emerald Eye's influence (plus preboot term during late v4)
1 power boost-- Gains growth powers
Joined shortly after Sun Boy-- check.
Almost didn't join postboot-- Earned her membership because one fellow applicant murdered the other.
Story features death of Legionnaire-- Gim dies.
Character associated with LSV-- Spider Girl
Character associated with Dirk-- Dr. Regulus
Hero of Lallor-- Evolvo.

And EDE is correct! This quote came from a rather unshy Violet in issue 83! It has always been one of my favorites because it shows Vi with an edge and a large heaping of sarcasm. Yes, it was because of the Eye's influence, but I still love it anyway!

Based upon the inability to explain = blindness, I'd say B5.

I'm sure I know precisely who this is, but can't check the issue # until I get home to my collection. So if anyone else wants it, hurry up!

Yup.
It's Fynt Brojj, the Legion's number one fan. These thoughts of his are depicted in Superboy Starring the Legion of Super-Heroes #209. He's expressing amazement that he no longer sees the Tulvanian Witch Wolf that he had seen caged just moments before--critical knowledge for the legionnaires trying to cope with the wolf's sudden and deadly appearance.

Well, moving on...
Identify the issue and the speaker of this one.

Colossal Boy, Chameleon Boy, and Invisible Kid were the first new Legionnaires to appear after Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, and Lightning Lad, even though Triplicate Girl and Phantom Girl were later retconned as joining before them.

But Colossal Boy was a wrong guess. Shrinking Violet was the right answer, and many lists cite her as joining immediately after Sun Boy.

Back to the quote:
I know it was in Legionnaires 77. My guess is Element Lad.

Yup, you got it! I took the quote from Legionnaires 42, when Zoe realizes that Mysa's been manipulating her all this time.
You're up!

Oh, phooey. I think this was the Lizard guy from S/LSH #219 or so. I have no idea what his name is though.

Okay then. I may have to edit this for complete accuracy later, but let's see if anyone can get it in the meantime.
"Don't hide from me legionnaire--I have your little friend."
