the original Starfinger was killed off in the mid-80s. The second Starfinger ditto during the Five Year Gap between 89 and 90.
Emerald Empress died in 88ish.
Tharok was presumed dead in the early 80s, but turned up again in the early 90s.
Pharoxx was killed by the LSV in the mid-80s. But that might have been off-camera.
the first Hunter the died in his only appearance. His brother has been Hunter ever since.
the original Time Trapper was killed in the mid-80s. The second Trapper in 88, and again in 90. The third Trapper in 94.

the Empress, as I recall, was getting rather world-weary. She was basically an immortal slave to the eye. She tricked Jeckie into severing her connection to the eye, so she could finally die.
The first Trapper was basically a renegade Controller who was a puppet of the second Trapper, who was a near-ommipotent godlike being. The second Trapper got tired of the first and disintegrated him in the 1st issue of the Legionnaires Three miniseries.
To avenge the death of Superboy, Mon-El, Brainy, Saturn Girl, Dup Damsel and Rond Vidar travelled into the end of time to kill the Trapper. They were clobbered; only by letting the Infinite Man loose could they win and knock off the Trapper. LSH vol 3 #50.
But the Trapper had implanted an essence of himself inside Mon-El. When that essence tried to take him over, Mon-El fought back, even though it meant the destruction of the entire timeline that led to the creation of the Legion. LSH vol 4 #3
In the default replacement timeline, Rond Vidar, Andrew Nolan, White Witch, Glorith and others conspired to recreate the old timeline to thwart Mordru, who in that reality became omnipotent because there was no Trapper or Legion to oppose him. LSH vol 4 #4
In the restored timeline, Glorith functioned in the place of the Trapper (in one Superman story she was even called the Time Trapper), yet she too was confronted by an essence of the Trapper. He goaded her into destroying him, but in doing so she set in motion a series of events that led to her undoing and the Trapper's return to existence. various stories, 1991-1994.
The Trapper did return, only to be blasted apart by an omnipotent insane Hal Jordan. Zero Hour #4 (1st issue, actually; the series counted down) 1994
Yet another Trapper emerged; this time a future variant of Rokk (Cosmic Boy), who, with the Founders of two different timelines, saw their universe end. LSH vol 4 #61 (I think), End of an Era finale. 1994.
There were two more Trappers after that, one was presumably a woman; the other was Superboy-Prime. Neither died, as far as I know.

I previously uploaded some Particon images to ComicVine that are decent size, though [this link] is the closest I have to a full body.

Do we have a thread that lists / possible summarizes the various planets in Legion history? It seems like the kind of reference project someone would have done on LW.
For example, I know Pasnic is King John's planet, but I can't remember all that much more about the planet.

There's a "How many planets can we list?" thread somewhere, but not exactly what you speak of.
cmk's Legion Help File has a listing of planets up until Legion Lost which is really useful, however.

Sadly, the Sannings recently announced that they were taking down their website. Looks like they did it. It shall be missed.
