No, it's not Triplicate Girl. Nor Blok, who survived for at least a few minutes after his arm was blown off.

The example in question involves a character losing an arm, and only an arm.

And it's not Gear.

There's a bit of a clue in the original post.

Was this in the "Mask Man" story?

Nope. A story told *much* later...

Did Sensor ever lose her robotic arms in the reboot? Maybe when she was captured and nearly operated on by Pernisius or something? Does that count?

It was the 5YL Garth, who thanks to the Validus Plague, had lost his arm...

I'd actually forgotten that Garth lost his arm a third time, but it's a distinct character I'm looking for.

You're thinking about the problem in the right way, though.

And I don't believe Sensor lost her robotic arms, but the scene in question has a character with a natural arm losing it.

Did Firefist maybe lose his arm in a Khundian battle arena before he became a cyborg?

Perhaps so, but I'm looking for a loss of an arm while an Active Legionnaire.

Here's a hint: It was in battle with the Fatal Five that the arm was lost.

Garth didn't lose an arm to the Validus plague. He just got unsightly blemishes on the arm that had been regrown.

Lost an arm in battle with the Fatal Five? I so don't remember this happening. Was it in Superboy's Legion? Did that version of Lightning Lad lose his arm? (I'll assume it was the Persuader who was responsible)

But he did lose again right before Zero Hour, or was retconned to have never gotten it back, or something like that.

Yep, Blacula, that's it!

You know, I'm always surprised which ones turn out to be stumpers. I guess the hard part about this one is that it was an "Elseworlds" tale and so people don't immediately think of it. I thought the "different versions" from the original question might get people thinking about different continuities and who might have had the equivalent fate in them, however.

What you're thinking of is that DURING Zero Hour, when Glorith and Mordru stole the Infinite Man's power, the Legionnaires' personal timelines got all messed up...they found themselves in costumes from varying eras (excuse for Saturn Girl to wear the pink bikini again) (though their memories were intact, they didn't think they were living at any time other than 2996). One of those occurrences was that Garth did indeed have a robotic arm again, though the rest of his body was dressed in its contemporary way.

Which 2 Legionnaires fell asleep in each other's arms, while looking at the covers of 'Legion of Super-Heroes' comics on the monitor screen?
