Rokk seems pretty inconsistent about wearing that bubble over his head. Perhaps he was building up a tolerance to earth's atmosphere at the time, and only needed it to 'catch his breath.'
Wow, magnetic eyes. There's a power to never turn on while visiting a cutlery store.

Re: the space helmet. Perhaps Braalians were affected by allergens in 20th century earth air.
What really bothers me about this scene is how Superboy doesn't even *try* to defend himself. Humility is good, but Kal needs some backbone! If the Legion didn't trust him enough to buy the "saved a city from a falling satellite" story, why would they want him to join anyway?

I don't get that page at all. Whose the dude? The black and green outfit makes me think Rond Vidar. Is Sunbeam a pet name, or is there a character named Sunbeam present (perhaps off-panel?)?
Since we see Violet shrinking in the first panel, and she's roughly the same height as Zoe in the next one, I get that this is from the boot where Colossal Boy was dead and Violet had his powers (since she must have just shrunk from giant size), but I'm not hugely familiar with that Legion...

The Dude and Sunbeam are Shrinking Violet and Lightning Lass, respectively, from 5YL. I don't recall the details, but somehow they show up in the reboot to interact with Kinetix and Violet (who can shrink naturally, and acquired Leviathan's power to grow). 5YL Vi has met the (yet another)SW6 version of herself before and so feels qualified to give "herself" advice on life.
So never judge a book by its cover Or a 5YLer by her lover Kid put me wise to her manly disguise She had the body of Tenzil Lord imagine my surprise
Dude was really a lady Dude was really a lady Dude was really a lady Dude was really a lady

Turns out 'dude' was a lady. Cue Aerosmith.
The artist really didn't give you much to work with, IMHO.

I like how Kinetix' outfit can't decide if it's an evening dress or a traditional super-union suit.
