Can't argue with that logic.
The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

From grooming to midnight snacks? Brainy had a bald head at one point? I thought that was Tyroc... [studies beer bottle] I think there's something in my beer besides beer. Time to go to bed, I think...

I wonder how fit we all would be if Brainy made diet plans for us.

I can't imagine a diet Brainy cooks up be very pleasant.

It will meet all of your body's needs though! Except perhaps the need for tasty food.

Brainiac 5 is probably my least favorite Legionnaire. His arrogance and panel-hogging kind of annoy me. On the other hand, people say the same thing about Cosmic Boy, who is one of my favorites. Of course, Rokk looked a whole lot better in something little and black.

Brainiac 5 respects women. Cosmic Boy does not.

I have discovered Pop Tarts and Lucky Charms make the best midnight snack.

Rokk was pretty good towards Lydda though!

He was verbally abusive, he cheated on her, and he threw her through a wall.

When was this? I haven't read those issues.

I haven't read the first issue, but I have read LoSH #297. Though it wasn't right what he did, he was dealing with the destruction of his home and the death of his parents so he wasn't acting rationally.

I don't think that's a valid excuse. And what really bothers me about the things he did is that he was never made to take responsibility for his actions.

Even typing "Rokk put Lydda through a wall" sounds simply terrible, and unjustifiable.
I've always thought is was an action he took not out of any anger or malevolence towards her, but because he knew she would stop him confronting the people who had firebombed his family. It was what he would have done with say Ultra Boy in a similar situation. Using his powers to stun a colleague who could otherwise capture him. That's something I've seen on a few occasions in comics. Most recently on a reread of Crisis, when Harbinger blasts Alexander Luthor. It looks pretty nasty, but he's back up and running the next time we see him.
Lydda was still powered, so he knew he wasn't going to harm her for more than a few panels.
In #212 he was a complete tool. There's dialogue concerning Lydda putting herself in harm's way, but it's part of Rokk's "I'm a selfish git, and this relationship is all about my needs" speech.
Then there's hitting Ayla...
"...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."

The Ayla thing is absolutely unforgivable.

Yeah, even I can't defend that Ayla incident. That was just plain bad.
