Obvious Ayla is making those antennae super-light in order to make them easy to rip out!

Or else they just don't make chemoids like they used to!

I need to stop posting anywhere but to the picture/story threads, I guess.

Well, I tend to think the idea that people are still hearkening back to Seduction of the Innocent in that fashion is kind of amusing. I assume that's the real origin of the jokes. I don't think anyone is saying that child abuse is a jolly good laugh.

But, hey, not every joke has to be funny for everyone. I hope you'll reconsider and continue posting here, C.

In the last few hours of Flag Day, a panel and a cover.

I predict that Superboy's army will lose, if only because Cham's army is much more organized from a costume color standpoint.

Well, once you add more water and fresh fruit to your diet, they do tend to wane pretty quick.

So the flag is made out of indestructible material, but they can't do the same for their protective gear.

No wonder Lightning Lad got killed.

Priorities, man! Legionnaires are a cred a dozen, but there's only one flag.

Well, they could make indestructible costumes, but unfortunately the glow from them would be visible for hundreds of miles.

I can't be sophisticated about the subject.
The evil is too great and all invasive.

If only Lightning Lad had died AFTER he saw our flag instead... *choke!*

Lightning Lad and Element Lad, two people who can point at you and kill you, have guns? What's up with that?

'OMG! It's an elephant! And he's got... a knife?!'

Well, it was a war. And in a war you need a gun, don't you?

a gun and a spiffy uniform

And it maybe one of those future guns of space that doesn't kill anyone. That way the Legion code against killing is upheld.

Actually, that's exactly right, Quis. The Legion agreed to participate in the war only if both sides agreed to use non-lethal weapons. The kicker was that the non-lethal Vrunn weapons proved deadly to Kryptonian physiology anyway.

. . . which still doesn't explain why the Legionnaires carry guns on the cover. (In the story, they don't.)

I'm guessing that Daisy payed DC BIG bucks to get those non-lethal guns on the cover.

Er... I'm pretty sure that wouldn't work.

You mean fighting-wise, or relationship-wise?

Either way.

Why is there something that looks like a full stanky kryptonian diaper hovering over Kal's head?

Set, I think that's the Eye with Supes' cape over it.

I leave further symbolic analysis to those who aren't still on their first cup of coffee.

It looks to me like Emerald Empress is coping a feel. I do believe I admire her for that.

Oh, I know, but I like my stanky diaper idea better.

At least Superboy didn't use an apple this time to knock a girl out.
