zzzzzzzzz.. >ZAP< Gah! Not the cattle prod Ibby! Gosh darn it!...
I went with Pebbles because I was trying to think of Legionnaires who would be visually very distinctive and stand out, without being a huge part of the story. '80s Blok with the shoulder pads is always a strong contender for that.
In an alternate time line 10 Legionnaires die at the hands (or metallic tentacles) of Computo, before the Legion's ranks are added to. Name 'em.

In order for my answer to be at all correct, I'll need to change "before the Legion's ranks are added to" to "before the final climactic panel" or even "during the story" as both could be correct. Teach me for not having a proper re-read before doing the question.

From XBen:-
1.Shrinking Violet
2.Lightning Lad
3.Brainiac 5
4.Cosmic Boy
5.Invisible Kid
6.Mon-El
7.Triplicate Girl
8.Element Lad
9.
10.
From Ibby:-
1.Shrinking Violet
2.Lightning Lad
3.Brainiac 5
4.Cosmic Boy
5.Invisible Kid
6.Mon-El
7.Triplicate Girl
8. Element Lad
9.Colossal Boy
10. Polar Boy
So Ibby has it, although I'd also have accepted Triplicate Girl, Duo Damsel and Una as they all die in this one.
Over to you Ibby!

Oh yeah, I remember COMPUTO killing more Luornu bodies in the end. What a terrible bloodbath that was.
Thanks, new Q up soon!

During the Dark Circle Saga in the Postboot, the anomaly "broke", causing time to stop. While some Legionnaires went to restart time, others went to disarm the Dark Circle forces on Durla.
Name the 15 who went to Durla.
As always, limit guesses to the number of unguessed please.

Alas, poor Magno. He'll get a second chance in my fanfic, but it looks like not in DC.

Wildfire hadn't been introduced at the time, and neither had Thunder. Magno was depowered, while Dreamer was just a supporting character.
The last two correct answers weren't active Legionnaires at the time of the story.

You know what? They actually are!
Sister Andromeda went to Durla to help calm anti-Durlan hysteria.
Shvaughn Erin helped several Legionnaires impersonate Science Police officers so they could retrieve Chameleon.
Chuck Taine (along with Tenzil Kem) was frozen because time stopped (and so was Karate Kid, but he was ON Durla with the others). A depowered Magno was presumably frozen on the Legion Outpost too.
Lori Morning tried to help, but her dial malfunctioned and her future Time Trapper self put her to sleep so she wouldn't interfere.
The 10 other Legionnaires were in space trying to restart the Anomaly. For completion's sake, they were Cosmic Boy, Kid Quantum II, Brainiac 5, Spark, XS, Triad, Apparition, Ultra Boy, Element Lad and Star Boy.
Over to you, Xben.

OK, who were the first 9 members of Superboy's Legion?
Usual rules about not putting forward more guesses than unguessed answers apply.
