Even so... It's Jo. It's Jeckie. Two long standing Legion Icons. Both aren't snakes. They've hooked up. Where's all the pro Val sentiment? If this were "The Continuity" then this would be huge (I think I just answered my own question). But still, it's a huge concept in Legion history for Legion man/wife to separate (no matter what the circumstances) and for him to hook back up within the Legion family. Jeckie's responsible for raising Tinya's (normally aging) kids. What did Jo tell the kids? Man that's ripe stuff, all types of speculative juices, hurt feelings, and rancid opinions should be flowing from Legion fandom... and, and, and... nothing. I feel like we've almost let down the Legion fans that came before us. We're pathetic.

If you feel you're not pathetic, then please pay no attention to the "We're pathetic." line above. I obviously wasn't talking about you. smile

Well ok, we're only slightly pathetic. It wasn't much of an appearence but then again we've wildly speculated with even less to go in on in the past, haven't we?

I was disappointed that he didn't introduce her as Queen Projectra of Orando or as Sensor Girl instead. I too assumed that Tinya was gone, presumably done away with by Glorith.
A Rimborian gang banger and a queen? highly unlikely. Although it did give a moments pause to consider the Legionnaires kids, Validus -of the Ranzz twins- and no-named "Cub" being the most famous of them.

Minesurfer, I think it was knowing that this was an Elseworld's, probably never to be re-visisted, that gave me little effect. I saw it, even though Tinya is my absolute favorite Comic Book Heroine of all-time who I have had a crush on since my first Legion comic, and all I could muster was a...'meh?'. It just felt so unimportant.

But Cap Yellow - in the Another Nail continuity Jo probably wasn't a "gang banger" in the first place. I really enjoyed this little sequence - especially how Alan drew Projectra. I would agree with other people though that it was little scenes like this (and also Wildcat Yolanda chatting up Green Lantern, Black Orchid decking Elasti-Girl etc) that made this series for me rather than the actual plot which was a bit inomprehensible.
