Supergirl?

Neither Young Justice nor Supergirl were hosts for the next appearance of Inferno.

Power Girl?

Wonder Woman, as part of the all-female gathering who went to rescue the male superheroes that Circe had transformed into animals?

Neither Power Girl nor Wonder Woman.

Teen Titans to try out for the team?

Guy Gardner: Warrior?

Ibby's got it - Teen Titans # 17, just one month after Inferno # 4.

I remember she left in disgust when Bart Allen showed up.

Okay...

In the Reboot Legion's battle against Mordru, the physically-powered heroes went up against Mordru first. The energy-casters and magicians were held in reserve, so Mordru would not absorb their abilities.

However, one hero who most definitely was NOT an energy-caster was also held in reserve, possibly mistakenly. Who was this?

Sensor?

Element Lad?

Nope.

Sensor was part of the team dealing with Emerald Violet.

Element Lad was in orbit, kept away from the battle because he had just regained consciousness from being turned to crystal by Mordru.

Chameleon?

CMK has it! for some reason Chameleon was grouped with energy casters/magicians like Umbra, Live Wire, Radion, Particon, Dragonmage, Magno (though Magno also pitched in when the more physical heroes went first)

The first wave included those Mordru wouldn’t be able to absorb energy or magic from - M’Onel, XS, Star Boy, Blast-Off, Monstress, Kid Quantum II, with Magno pitching in

Kinetix, Sensor and Mysa had taken Emerald Violet away to separate Vi from the Eye

Invisible Kid was field leader

Element Lad and Andromeda were recovering in orbit


This still remains one of my favorite storylines, and was in my opinion one of the best stories of the Reboot. a truly epic battle with big stakes, surprises and great moments for most


over to CMK

Which member of the post-boot Legion Academy actually tried out to join the Legion?

Cannus in Legionnaires 43

Rat's right, Ribby!

Ruh-roh!

At least Cannus proved he was really good at running away from a fight

Legionnaires 50 included a pull-out poster with all current Legionnaires, several key supporting characters (mostly Legion support staff), and three future members. (Tellingly, there were two Legionnaires who wuld join just before two of those future members, but they weren't included on this poster).

Name the three future members.

Thunder, Monstress, and Chuck?

Weeeeeell, technically Chuck only became an Honorary Legionnaire, but I never did specify Active vs. Honorary! So you have it!

The last one I was thinking of was Wildfire, who can be seen in his energy form (if you look closely!) beside Magno on the poster. It's very subtle, and Wildfire isn't listed on the Directory at the back.

Ferro just missed being a correct answer by one month - he was offered membership the month before.

Kid Quantum II and Karate Kid are the two future Legionnaires absent from the poster, joining before Thunder and Wildfire but being skipped over here. I don't know if it was because the writers hadn't planned on having them join yet, or if theydidn't want to do too much foreshadowing. Another future Legionnaire who had been introduced, Dreamer, is also absent.

Finally, a good piece of evidence to show that she was NOT a Legionnaire - the female Inferno is absent from the poster, despite being stranded with the 20th century team at the time. The other non-Legionnaire stranded int the past, Shvaughn Erin, is on the poster by virtue of being Science Police Liaison and thus a member of the support staff (also included were RJ Brande, Marla Latham, Chuck and Tenzil. Absent is Rond Vidar, who is an ally but not really a support staff member. Finally, Lori Morning is present in one of her H-Dial forms, Slipstream).

Whew, what a mouthful!

In any case, over to you Not-So-Bad Lad!

The accident that empowered Sun Boy killed at least one other person, but their identity changed between the Silver Age and the 5YL storylines. Can you name both people said to have died in the accident, in the two different eras?

Gah, I've forgotten his name completely.

Dhave and Chuck?

Negative!

Sorry, I can pick another question that may be better? : )

I think that's a good idea
