One of Dream Girl’s moments that always stuck in my mind was when she and a few others were going to be burnt at the stake on Orando and she faked out Hagga the royal sorceress, convincing her that she (Nura) was even more powerful by rising from the fire (good old flight ring) and making the sun go out (a little help from Shadow Lass). It really showed her willpower and ability to take the lead. It goes well with that incident you showed with Brainy’s force field belt. She always was one tough dame.

This is quite a character history bios. Finding this more in depth story and information
has really given me a better understanding of a character i’ve only seen and heard a
few things about as a new Legion fan.

I’m voting for Colossal Boy or Chamleon Boy. I always liked the way they looked. Though B5 makes sense, too, since as has been stated he made a briefe appearance in the Lightning Saga.

Dream Girl would be a much more interesting character if she had narcolepsy.

Braniac 5: “Alright, there’s obviously something going on in their base. Ultra Boy, I want you to fly over head, Timber Wolf will scan the perimeter while Dream Girl you’ll…. Dream Girl?”
Dream Girl: “Zzzzzzzzzzzz….”
Braniac 5: “Would somebody wake up Dream Girl?”
Ultra Boy: “Dream Girl, wake up…”
Dream Girl: “Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz….THEY’VE GOT A BOMB! IN THE BASEMENT! AND THEY’RE PROTected byyyyy…. Zzzzzzzzzz….”

::everyone stands and stares::

Ultra Boy: “Dream Girl?”
Dream Girl: “Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…..LECTROIDS FROM PLANET TEN!”
Superboy: Did anyone see me make out with Bonnie Hunt in the Cheaper by the Dozen extras?”
Everyone: “Oh for Chrissakes, Tom…”

That’s a comic right there folks. Writes itself.

Two votes for Brainiac, who has logged approximately seven THOUSAND Legion appearances in his run… Doesn’t anybody want ot hear about Gates or Kid Psycho? :)

Funny, I thought she looked prettier as a BBW. But, maybe that�s just me�

If I’m not mistaken, that art was by Stuart Immonen, who is about to take over Ultimate Spider-Man… He’s awesome as all hell, as his recent Nextwave work shows.

How many leaders has the Legion had? Every time I read any sort of Legionnaire�s bio, it seems like I see something about them leading the team.

In order the leaders have been: Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, Brainiac 5, Invisible Kid I, Ultra Boy, Karate Kid, Mon-El, Ultra Boy again, Mon-El, Wildfire, Lightning Lad, Dream Girl, Element Lad, Polar Boy, & Sensor Girl. After the five year gap, Rokk Krinn (Cosmic Boy) & Reep Daggle (Chameleon Boy) co-led the reformed team. Post reboot, the only leaders I remember were Colossal Boy, Cosmic Boy, & Kid Quantum II.

So far in the Threeboot, we’ve had Cosmic Boy and Brainiac 5 in a power struggle and Supergirl recently elected…

I vote for Bouncing Boy or Brainiac 5, and I say brainy because he was the one that sent them on their mission in the first place- that crazy mo’fo’.

Also, some bits of Legionnaire business: We have now covered the core seven Legionnaires that played a part in the JLA/JSA Crossover, and we're now at the mercy of my various whims. As of now, I am continuing with the plan to cover ALL the Legionnaires, though a little bit freaked out at what that will entail. Right now, I'm interested in hearing who you want to hear about... I have a vague notion that the next Hero History will probably be either XS, Bouncing Boy, or Lightning Lass. I'm probably leaning towards XS for sentimental (as well as general laziness) reasons. Here is the list of Legionnaires still left to cover, lord help my weekends. :) Pre-Crisis: Cosmic Boy, Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, Triplicate Girl, Phantom Girl, Tom Welling, Chameleon Boy, Colossal Boy, Invisible Kid I, Brainiac 5, Supergirl, Sun Boy, Ultra Boy, Shrinking Violet, Mon-El, Bouncing Boy, Element Lad, Lightning Lass, Ferro Lad, Nemesis Kid, Shadow Lass, Chemical King, Tyroc, Invisible Kid II, White Witch, Magnetic Kid, Polar Boy, Quislet, Tellus. (Calamity King, Chlorophyll Kid, Color Kid, Crystal Kid, Echo, Fire Lad, Infectious Lass, Karate Kid II, Nightwind, Porcupine Pete, Reflecto, Stone Boy, Storm Boy & Visi-Lad were members during the Five Year Gap, but only some of them would make for a full history... I think the Subs should get an entry as a unit, so perhaps a group history on the rest of them, if my attention lasts that long.) Joined After the Five-year Gap: Impulse (Kent Shakespeare), Kono, Celeste Rockfish-McCauley, Devlin O'Ryan. Reserve and Honorary Members: Pete Ross, Kid Psycho, Insect Queen, Elastic Lad, Green Lantern Rond Vidar. 'Legionnaires' Era: Andromeda, Catspaw, Computo, Dragonmage, Kid Quantum. Post-Reboot members: Kinetix, Gates, Magno, Inferno, Monstress, Kid Quantum II, Thunder, Shikari, Gear, Superboy (Kon-El). Threeboot members: Dream Boy, Theena, roughly 28,000 extras.
