Yeah, when I said Ferro, I thought it might be Cham giving that pep talk to Ferro in LSH # 100. Guess not. The alias still doesn't ring a bell, off-hand.
Lori Morning?

Good guess re Ferro and Cham.
It wasn't Lori either...
the person Gullo fooled was a villain

Roderick Doyle? Was Gullo the name of the hooded assistant of his that Cham impersonated way back when?

Nope. Good memory, but it wasn't that. Though Cham did impersonate someone - I can't remember the name of the assistant.

you got it!
Violet was masquerading as Gullo, and Cham as Winema Wazzo. Cham blasted Gullo, who shrank out of sight - but Cham pretended she'd vaporized Gullo. All part of the sting.
Vi revealed herself with the line "remember Gullo? as in "gullible"?"

Original Legion one of the last stories before 5 Years Later : Gigi and Shvaughn mentioned the # of science police in metropolis and on earth ...name either # (they said about X for Metropolis and about Y for Earth ) Name either number.

Not 24 but that's somewhat close to the Metropolis amount from a grouping standpoint.
This story was talking about a super computer (Not Brainiac 5 - though he would eventually help resolve everything) that helped them have a limited # of Science Police because the super computer could predict crime/threats so well (until it was sabotaged).

I remember the story but this is a real good trivia item. No idea about the number except they were surprisingly small.
50 on Earth?

50 on Earth is incorrect but you're both on a really good track , amusingly in the opposite direction but by a similar factor.

yeah, i vaguely remember that story, and being initially surprised at how few they were - but the super computer bit made sense and explained why they were so few!
hmmm 36?

not 36, that's closer to the Metropolis # than the Earth # but your first guess was closer.
Hint: The Metropolis # was able to fit into a room (maybe even the same comic panel).

Correct ! ~12 was the # for Metropolis (which Colossal Boy and Element Lad became a part of to see if it was an inside job) and ~100 was the # mentioned for Earth for Science Police during this particular super computer story.

Titan?
I remember vaguely the story. And I think the correct answer is either Winath or Titan.

It was indeed Titan! Originally introduced in Adventure Comics # 337 (The Weddings that Wrecked the Legion), Tom and Mary Bierbaum (who else?) brought them back for Tenzil's wedding to Saturn Queen in Legion # 50.

to you as well stile - we both remembered the same story and the same couple after all OK... When Spark got her gravity-cancelling powers for a brief time in the Reboot, she once used them to slam someone into the ceiling. Who was this?

Hmm. Sounds like her and I would have read it but can't even remember if it was a member of the team or someone else?
Brainy?
