Another classic game.

Identify the quote, and then post the next one.

"Hey! What's bugging you, buddies? You all look as grim as a hangman with a headache!"

This sounds like it must be from way back in Adventure #377(?) In the prior issue 376(?) an intruder poisons some wine cups at Legion HQ and kills Supes, Luornu, Brainy, Jeckie, & Val (I think those were the victims)

I think Jo says those words as he leads his off planet team back into HQ and first sees some of his other teammates (who have already discovered the victims and captured "EggHead", the Seeron whom they think is to blame.)

Haven't read that issue in ages so I may have the actually characters all screwed up, but it sure does sound like a quote from that issue.


"Hey Jim! Get Mon out of the Zone!! And...when do we get Condo back?"

Nope, that's not the source of the quote.

It's not a particularly easy one, so I'll go ahead and give a hint.

Think about who's posting the quote.

The quote is from Star Boy in Adventure # 342. He was just coming back from having killed Kenz Nuhor in violation of the Legion's code against killing, and his "buddies" were preparing to string him up. (OK, court martial him. Same difference.)

Looks like I really let this one slide.

Next quote:

"Already? Seems like I just hit the sack! Oh well, the others warned me there'd be days like this!"

Nope, it's not Bouncing Boy or Karate Kid.

Hint: Think of someone who's just joined the Legion.

That's what I was thinking when I guessed Karate Kid.

So how about Ferro Lad?

Xben already guessed Karate Kid, lance. Not who I'm looking for.

Second hint: This was from the character's second appearance.

No, it's not Timber Wolf, Magno, or Chemical King.

One final hint, and if no one gets it, I'll pass the turn to whoever wants it:

This quote was uttered in the 1970s. (That should narrow it down quite a bit.)
