Thanks, as always, to the kind words and support from various posters here on this endeavor.
As has been pointed out, there's still lots of characters and looks from Legion lore, thus my absence. I'm hard at work at more! The Academy kids are still forthcoming. ALL the Academy kids, official members or not. They're about 50% done, but I decided to get Yera done because posting her AFTER the new recruits just seemed wrong. By that same token, Earth Man is coming too. Then, onward to the Glorithverse as well as some other villains and heroes.
In regards to previously posted characters and missed or minor outfits, don't expect an update with 100 new Cosmic Boys. Instead, I'll probably be reading through the Legion's vast history in chronological order and routinely update specific characters as I come across new looks.

So, reading between the lines, does the absence of Yera as Luornu during the Glorith-verse reunion section give a hint as to what you really think went down on Winath?

Haha. Good call, Ex! I always felt that could go either way. We have Luornu with her "different personalities" for the first time in that era. Yera was checking out other men with Nura and Shady in the same annual, so it'd almost be fitting karma!
Regardless, I love Yera. She was always one of my favorite supporting characters for her unique history and the role she played both in and out of the Legion. I'm really glad she's risen from D-list obscurity to C-list obscurity since Johns.

Neither did I, Peebs! I liked the colors on her on her Legion Lost outfit when I first saw it and knew she wore it before ... but wow! They were smart to use that as her color of choice for a reason.
I like that, except for the Glorithverse and later DCNu, she alternated between greens and purples much like the actual Shrinking Violet!

To be a Double Post Damsel, I also like the implication/likelihood that purple is associated at long last with the Violet character simply due to Yera's preference for the color!

Cham's worn purple quite a bit, too. Maybe, Durlan's like creating that color with their skin cells, it might tingle deliciously or feel extra silky? Or, then again, it might be just easy to maintain!
Lovely as always, Future. I was beginning to worry a little about you, so I'm extra glad to see your wonderful posts.
I find that I've disliked Kirt so much that I had a hard time saving, or even going over, his entry. sigh But, okay, I did.
