If it were an appearance-count contest, reboot Sensor and DnA-era Zoe would win.

Grell-era Cos was semishirtless.

I could be mistaken, but I seem to recall a shirtless Lyle Norg appearing in the OUTLAWED LEGION story.

I want to go through my entire LSH collection and do an abs tally!

Who appeared shirtless first? Who had the best chest? Who has NEVER bared their manbreasts?

(Of course, EVERYONE was shirtless-- and pantsless-- in 5YL LSH # 25!)

I'll have to get started on this, SOON.

Leapin' jeepers... scanning LSH ARCHIVES Vol 1, I was about to give up, but then...

LIGHTNING LAD and SUN BOY share the honors for being first shirtless Legionnaires!

They appear sans shirts in "THE FANTASTIC SPY" (Adv 303), second page. Unfortunately, they must be a tad chilly because their hospital bedcovers are pulled way up, totally hampering nip action. Shucks!

Of note: there's also some boy-leg action. Like many young redheads, both seem super-smooth all over!

Also, Superboy and Ultra Boy do their best Pete Ross impressions by using their vision owers to check out, like, EVERYone!

And that's it for Archive 1, since I'm not counting ancient dudes in togas in the past or Cupid.

LSH ARCHIVES Vol. 2....

Why, there's Elastic Lad Jimmy Olsen himself ("The World of Doomed Olsens", Jimmy Olsen # 72) , all shirtless and doing a Porcupine Pete impression... what's the deal with all these shirtless redheads? Not that I'm complaining, mind you! Jimmy's a lot buffer than I would have figured.

And THERE'S why... it's actually COSMIC BOY disguised as porcupine-Jimmy! The panel shows him lifting the Jimmy mask over his head, and the way it's inked, it looks like Cos is sporting quite a bit of underarm hair... could this be a comics first? Great Space!

And that's it for volume 2!

I remmy seeing Giffen drawing a lot of male legionnaires rip torn and showing hairy chests...Mon-El and Lightning Lad come to mind. Brin Londo of course showed hairy chest the most.

Chemical King and Ferro Lad were the only male legionnaires who never were shirtless, easily.

ARCHIVE Vol. 3: Things got conservative. No shirtless action, although Timber Wolf does appear wearing a club-kid twink tank top in his debut story.

ARCHIVE vol 4:

Superboy and Mon-El appear in ripped costume on the cover of ADV # 339 (and in the story too), but no rippage of Captain Kirk proportions.

And that's it. Yawn!

Vol. 5...

The Weirdo Legionnaire's costume does not involve a shirt! Weird! (ADV # 341)

And that's it!

Wow, looks like the censors cracked down on the Legion after the early shirtless escapades [Wink]

Wasn't Val shirtless and sweaty after sparring with Superboy?
Or is that just me...?

I promise to peruse ARCHIVES 6-and on soon for more shirtless pics! It's me duty and pleasure to do so!

You and your Funyun-induced blackouts! Tsk!

Surely 5YG must have had an abundance of shirtlessness. All those trips to Winath, Cham and Celeste bickering/bonding at the spa, etc.

have Bouncing Boy ever gone shirtless?

Tellus always be shirtless.

Looks like she's giving her right boob a honk!

And don't think I didn't notice where she's got the left hand placed.....

(Er, I assume the original was uncensored? [Hmmm?] )

Pity, that link nolonger connects to the article and the search function on the home page is useless.
Though I have no recollection of even posting that, it would seem I must have been talking about a story on the Omnicom about a "Legion of Super-Heroes" themed White Party back in 2009 that Lady Gaga was performing at.

A little googling shows that it wasn't so much a real "Legion" thing as just "Dress Like a Half-Naked Super-Hero" thing.

Anyway...

Gallery for Your Perusal


Don't say I never did anything for you. [Smile]

Why, yes, yes it was. However, I couldn't possibly post or link to an uncensored version, lest I end up corrupting children!

Similarly, I couldn't possibly post this shirtless Saturn Girl uncensored [Big Grin]

Moy's tendency to draw Ayla's tongue sticking out takes on a whooooooooooooole new meaning right now.
