Two good five group guesses to start with. Since I can't think of another five group off the top of my head let's try something different ...

N.R.G.
Wave
Pulse
Dragon
B5

(also known as
Wildfire
Spider Girl
Lightning Lass
Ultra Boy
Brainiac 5)

Quis 0 (although that was *another* group of 5 I almost picked, so I dodged that bullet!)

EDE 0 (Crikey, I nearly picked *that* group of five too! I'm hella predictable...)

stile86 0

Ibby 1

Okay, changing the rules slightly.

Now there's *SIX* Legionnaires with this thing in common, because someone got listed that I had forgotten about! Ugh.

(It wouldn't be fair to just ignore it because I didn't think of them, because not counting them would make it harder to guess the connection between the others.)

And in his last post, Quis got 2 right. (Including the one I'd forgotten.)

Just posting this now, because I'm headed to work and won't be on for a tad.

Ibby 2
EDE 2
stile86 3
Quis 2

Stile86 can take a guess.

Or I can offer a hint.


Five out of six of them also have had something else in common, but it's something that about half the team has in common.

Well, I was thinking "pre-Crisis Legionnaires from Earth", but there's also Sun Boy (and Cosmic Boy, for that matter).

And that's close enough! It was 'Silver Age Legionnaires from Earth' (and I was counting Sun Boy, whom you just mentioned, but not Invisible Jacques, who was post-Silver Age), and not Cosmic Boy, because I thought he was born on Braal (my bad!).

Oy, I forgot Bouncing Boy entirely. Thought Karate Kid was from Lythyl. Wondered whether to count Tyroc (decided not, since Marzal is technically in another dimension).

Note to self; do the research first!

Take it away EDE. I'mma go hide in my Legionnaire-forgetting shame. smile

(And gosh, did we *really* not get a lady Legionnaire from Earth before the Reboot? Yikes!)

With all the reboots it's hard to remember origins. I did a double take when you said Cosmic Boy wasn't born on Braal until I remembered that story that suggested his birth n Earth from Braalian parents was why his powers were so strong.

Good idea for a group anyway.

Ah, I wouldn't have considered Wildfire as Silver Age, so I was struggling to come up with a limiter that gave me exactly six. I actually didn't think of Tyroc at all and didn't consider the possibility of Cosmic Boy until my last post. If I had thought of the latter I probably would've gone with Sun Boy and Cos instead of Wildfire and Jacques as "Adventure Era Earth-born Legionnaires". I think the Cos retcon was in the Levitz spotlight issue? I might be wrong.

Anyway, great idea for a list. And, yeah, surprising that, with as many Earth-born Legionnaires as there are, none of them were female until 5YL. Hmm... I can think of at least seven female Legionnaires from Earth across various 'boots, so a bit too many for a future question.

Speaking of which, my list has 5 Legionnaires (though I'll say to begin with that one may be controversial).
