Well, excluded Nemesis Kid and Atmos under the same rule: The Jackass Clause. As for Kel-El (Kell-Ell?) I’ll probably touch on him in the Kon-El entry, which may be the the same as the Tom Welling entry. Maybe. It depends on how psycho I’m feeling that week.

There was no mention of it (or a couple of other stories) since I will, frankly, need all the Chemical King stories I can get when I get to Condo’s own Hero History back in the day.

“By my count there have been 80 Legionnaires so far, and maybe more than that if Yera turns out to have actually joined the team, and if Rainbow Girl joins with the rest of the Subs. But it’s a lot less than that if you don’t count the ones who were only offscreen members during the Five Year Gap.”

I will probably be doing the Substitute Heroes and the Honorary Legionnaires as group entries, and the same goes for the trios of Devlin, Celeste and Kono & Catspaw, Computo and Dragonmage, whose runs were limited even by Chemical King standards. I haven’t decided yet whether Kal-El and Kon-El will get separate entries…

Here’s the official list I’m working from: Cosmic Boy, Lightning Lad/Livewire, Saturn Girl, Triplicate Girl/Duo Damsel/Triad, Phantom Girl/Apparition, Silver Age Tom Welling, Chameleon Boy, Colossal Boy/Leviathan, Invisible Kid, Star Boy, Brainiac 5, Supergirl, Sun Boy, Ultra Boy, Shrinking Violet/Violet/Atom Girl, Mon-El, Bouncing Boy, Matter-Eater Lad, Element Lad, Lightning Lass/Light Lass/Gossamer, Dream Girl, Ferro Lad, Karate Kid, Princess Projectra, Shadow Lass, Chemical King, Timber Wolf, Wildfire, Tyroc, Dawnstar, Blok, Invisible Kid II, White Witch, Magnetic Kid, Polar Boy, Quislet, Tellus, Calamity King, Chlorophyll Kid, Color Kid, Crystal Kid, Echo, Fire Lad, Impulse/Kent Shakespeare, Infectious Lass, Karate Kid II, Nightwind, Porcupine Pete, Reflecto, Stone Boy, Storm Boy, Visi-Lad, Kono, Celeste McCauley/Neon, Devlin O’Ryan, Spider Girl/Wave, Catspaw, Computo II, Dragonmage, Laurel Gand/Andromeda, Kid Quantum, XS, Kinetix, Gates, Inferno, Kon-El, Magno, Monstress, Kid Quantum II, Thunder, Shikari, Gear, Dream Boy, Chameleon Girl, Night Girl, Pete Ross, Kid Psycho, Insect Queen, Elastic Lad, & Rond Vidar.

I am intentionally NOT covering Nemesis Kid, (who was a traitor from day one) Command Kid, (who is a bastard) Dynamo Boy, (likewise) The original Legion of Super-Villains, The Khundish Legionnaires who joined during the battle with the zombies, nor will I be giving separate entries to Atom’X and Radion, who combined to form the Reboot version of Wildfire, or covering the shmucky armpitless jackass known as Atmos… Have I missed anyone?

but I think there’s a lot going on with him.

When you think about how many Legionnaires we’ve covered already, it’s frightening to see how many are yet to be covered. I have, indeed, set myself up for a challenge here.

By my count there have been 80 Legionnaires so far, and maybe more than that if Yera turns out to have actually joined the team, and if Rainbow Girl joins with the rest of the Subs. But it’s a lot less than that if you don’t count the ones who were only offscreen members during the Five Year Gap.

Oh, and thanks a lot for making me late for work!
