Originally posted by Future: Okay, I think that was about my biggest update in one sitting. 165 micros later...
Anyway, some notes and updates: - FIRE LAD has been updated with an additional five micros.
- The Subs have been completed. CHLOROPHYLL KID, STONE BOY, COLOR KID, PORCUPINE PETE, INFECTIOUS LASS, URK, ANTENNAE LAD, DOUBLE HEADER, RAINBOW GIRL, KARATE KID II, COMET QUEEN, RON KARR, and SADE have been added.
- I did not include characters like Grinn or Universo, who may have assisted the SUBS at times Five Years Later but never technically served with them. Visi Lad is absent but will be forthcoming with the Academy students.
- I am missing some pin-up/promotional shots which may have had different looks or colorings for the SUBS.
- The total number of micros in the archives has rocketed to over 1100 now.
- The table of contents on the first post has been expanded to feature several teams which have begun to form, like the Legion Academy and LSV. I simply LOVED THEM all!!! esp looking forward with the Legion Academy (esp. Power Boy and Gravity Kid!) and then hopefully the Uncanny Amazers...I hope so! keep it up! Love it!

New additions are awesome as always!
Would love to see Monica Sade back with the Subs. They could use more chicks.

It almost feels redundant to keep singing the praises of these... but, man, you deserve it!
Thanks for all the hard work you keep putting into these, Future. It's really an amazing body of work you're creating.

Hey Future, wasn't Stone Boy one of the Legion Cadets from the Reboot?

Did I miss Kent Shakespeare? And Lana Lang? And Dynamo Boy? Nemesis Kid? I'll go check. sigh Found Nemesis Kid, but not the other 3. Or Kono or Celeste, at least I didn't see them in the lists. Did you say somewhere on these pages that you're going to do that era as a unit? But, wasn't Sade from that era? I'll check again. Did. No Pete Ross or the other Reservists, IIRC.

I think I like Comet Queen as a micro better than I do as a character! Something else else about the face, I think, is kinda cool. Color Kid looks better in a skirt, as a girl, than he does normally. "Yeah, Ulu? That time you were a chick? That was a good look for you..."

Future, there was a pretty good fan site called "Zoe's Closet" that had scans of ALL of Kinetix's outfits EVER. Looks like it's down though...
But if you need help with any Postboot era costumes, give me a yell.

Some updates!
Thanks, as always, to the kind words and support from various posters here on this endeavor.
As has been pointed out, there's still lots of characters and looks from Legion lore, thus my absence. I'm hard at work at more! The Academy kids are still forthcoming. ALL the Academy kids, official members or not. They're about 50% done, but I decided to get Yera done because posting her AFTER the new recruits just seemed wrong. By that same token, Earth Man is coming too. Then, onward to the Glorithverse as well as some other villains and heroes.
In regards to previously posted characters and missed or minor outfits, don't expect an update with 100 new Cosmic Boys. Instead, I'll probably be reading through the Legion's vast history in chronological order and routinely update specific characters as I come across new looks.

Great work as always, Future. So, reading between the lines, does the absence of Yera as Luornu during the Glorith-verse reunion section give a hint as to what you really think went down on Winath?

Haha. Good call, Ex! I always felt that could go either way. We have Luornu with her "different personalities" for the first time in that era. Yera was checking out other men with Nura and Shady in the same annual, so it'd almost be fitting karma! Regardless, I love Yera. She was always one of my favorite supporting characters for her unique history and the role she played both in and out of the Legion. I'm really glad she's risen from D-list obscurity to C-list obscurity since Johns.

Neither did I, Peebs! I liked the colors on her on her Legion Lost outfit when I first saw it and knew she wore it before ... but wow! They were smart to use that as her color of choice for a reason.
I like that, except for the Glorithverse and later DCNu, she alternated between greens and purples much like the actual Shrinking Violet!

To be a Double Post Damsel, I also like the implication/likelihood that purple is associated at long last with the Violet character simply due to Yera's preference for the color!

Nice work, as always. Now I want micros of all the legionnaires "in bed."
Beauty's where you find it. Not just where you bump and grind it.
