It's interesting in the pre-boot post-Crisis list you have Mon-El listed as being from the Pocket Universe. I always assumed he was from the "real" Universe, but was shunted into the Pocket Universe by the Time Trapper in order to meet Superboy and fulfill his destiny. Was it ever stated in the canon that he was from the Pocket Universe or is that just an inference you're making based on the fact that he showed up in Superboy's Smallville?
I just transcribed the list from the original's site. I did, however, fill in the missing information on the postboot team to the best of my ability.

Ah. It is an interesting question though. What do you think? Like I said, I think Mon came from the real universe, which would prove to be consistent with his 20th Century service in the L.E.G.I.O.N., which obviously would have been post-Crisis, pre-Glorith.

Sounds good to me Lou. DCU Lar gets shunted into the P.U. but thinks he's just traveled to Earth, and meets Superboy. Gets lead poisoning and is trapped in the Phantom Zone. Coolio.

1. Imra Ardeen of Titan, Saturn Girl, Fair Legion
L* Esper, Esper Lass, Mentalla, Saturna, Saturn Woman, Tellus, Titania
L* Bertor Ardeen, Dacey Ranzz, Delya Castil, Dr. Micah Aven, Doritt Ranzz, Eve Aries, Garridan Ranzz, Graym Ranzz, Jancel Ardeen, Meta Ulnoor, Prof. Lear Vndaar, Sarmon Ardeen, Sydne Ardeen
L* Lightning Lad/Live Wire, Superboy, Apollo, Timber Wolf, Proty, Cosmic Boy, Ultra Boy
L* Pretty much as she's been pictured. An organizer, a businessmanlike, clever, smart, competent women's libber who scared away every guy she met until Lightning Lad, with his overwhelming ego, treated her like a lady and she loved it. She is a wild, wild woman in bed, who undoubtedly has occasionally accompanied Lightning Lad on his forays into Dream Girl's boudoir.
L* Tough, dedicated and self-disciplined, but not the iron-butt some of her teammates regard her as. She's built many emotional barriers around herself because she's all too familiar with and vulnerable to the intense personalities that surround her. When it's needed (and she knows when), she's the most empathic and supportive of the team, as every Legionnaire who's gone through a real crisis knows.

2. Rokk Krinn of Braal, Cosmic Boy, Cos, Polestar, Founder Legion
L* Axis, Cobalt Kid, Cosmic Man, Cosmos, Gauss, Lodestone, Magnetic Kid, Magno, Magno Lad, Repulse
L* Dyrk Magz, Ewa Krinn, Gen. Moss, Hu Krinn, Kort Grezz, Lev Magz, Loomis, Omar Magz, Pol Jath Krinn, Pol Krinn, Polla, Repulse, Subofcr. Collazo, Trin Magz
L* Triplicate Girl, Sinde, Chameleon Boy, Night Girl, Saturn Girl, XS, Argent, Kid Quantum II
L* Kind of a yutz - manly, strong, secure, and yet no one suspects that he isn't bright enough not to be. Questions of a philosophical nature rarely form in his mind. He is a good counterpart to Bouncing Boy, having that dumb ego BB lacks. He will shave around his ears forever. On the good side, he is dedicated, direct, and reasonable; he knows his lack of high intellect and delegates the thinking, rather than attempt it himself. He is a good leader, a quick thinker if not a deep thinker, and one who relates well to those behind him. Even as a leader he is a team player.
L* Literally the "rock" of the Legion, the foundation, the corner stone. Quietly, unobtrusively personifies Legion heroism. Not really a natural leader, tends to let others take the initiative. Never acted on his love for Imra and let Lydda choose him.

3. Garth Ranzz of Winath/Amarta, Lightning Boy, Lightning Lad (AND Proty II), Live Wire, Element Lad II (a.k.a. Jarth)
L* Lamprey, Lightning Man, Spark, Sparx
L* Amb. Kaye, Ayla Ranzz, Bran Londo, Brin Londo, Dacey Ranzz, Doritt Ranzz, Garridan Ranzz, Graym Ranzz, Loni Londo, Luc Ranzz, Mekt Ranzz, Perla Ranzz, Pres. Fegg Arn, Vaz Ranzz
L* Saturn Girl, Cera Kesh, Jancel Ardeen
L* One of the reasons for his sister's retiring personality. He is a showman, a proud, powerful exemplary hero. A confident, dominant man, man enough for the likes of Imra "Ironass" Ardeen. Certainly his revival from death has affected him. Doubtless he feels now that he has a great role to play - a mission. He is good. He knows it - he strives for it and will not be denied his place in the heroic limelight.
L* The original Garth was a charismatic bad boy who nobody was quite able or willing to straighten out. He finally found real valor in himself when he sacrificed his life for Imra. When the team tried to resurrect him, they instead gave him Proty's personality, which was the heroic, dedicated and slightly unbalanced Garth we knew during most of the Legion's run.

4. Luornu Durgo of Cargg/Carggg, Triplicate Girl, Duo Damsel (a.k.a. Lelith), Mono Maid or Single Sis, Triad
L* Multiple Girl, Multiplicate Girl, Myriad, Trio, Triplicate Woman
L* Humre Durgo, Iruna Durgo, Murlu, Silvou Durgo
L* Cosmic Boy, Invisible Kid, Brainiac 5, Superboy, Bouncing Boy/Chuck Taine, Nam'Lor, Valor/M'Onel, Colossal Boy, Superboy II, Ultra Boy, Element Lad, Arsenal
L* The only girl with a frail enough ego to make Bouncing Boy secure. She is a bright, pretty, clever, thoughtful, and artistic chick with a lousy self-image. One of the best catches of the Legion girls - note that BB got her! All the way through the courtship he probably told himself, Naw, she really can't like me." And with the same ruthless resignation he faces danger, he courted and charmed her until he got her, surprising no one more than himself! She recognizes Chuck's value. She even recognizes her own value, but insists on judging herself against standards carefully selected to paint a failure. Like the hopeless crush on Supes. I'm sure there were some jokes made about the two for one bit long before BB courted DD - probably the Legion guys were afraid of messing with DD because of the razzing they'd get, weird sex humor and suspicion of troilistic perversion, etc. I'm sure DD got some funny looks occasionally from the Legionnaires. A girl with a power so weirdly suited to weird sex (and not much else) has reason to wonder what's said behind her backs.
L* Lu has a triple personality, an oddity they try to suppress on Cargg. The "purple" Lu is reserved, well-behaved, the "orange" Lu is a trouble-making rebel and the "white" Lu (the one Computo killed) is nervous and fatalistic,, the repository of all the anxiety the combined Triplicate Girl suffered through. Usually the "purple" personality is dominant, making Triplicate Girl one of the strongest links in the Legion chain. ....Usually.

5. Tinya Wazzo of Bgtzl/Bgztl, Phantom Girl, Apparition
L* Density, Kono, Phantom Woman
L* Amb./Pres. Winema Tinya Wazzo (Wlessey), Arna Nah, Byzjn Wazzo, Cub Nah, Enya Wazzo, Gmya Wazzo, Khard Wlessey, Ronn Nah, Ron-Vizl, Solon Darga
L* Star Boy, Ultra Boy, Timber Wolf
L* No wonder Ultra Boy worships her. She is bright, pretty, thoughtful, sensitive, and charming. She also knows Ultra Boy well, she understands him better than he understands himself. She sees the good in him, but she surely knows he is unfaithful. I imagine she doesn't care, she accepts it as part of the price she pays - just as she accepts dealing with his negativism. I suspect she can maneuver him pretty handily, and wind him around the finger of her choice, though he doubtless believes he is running the show and she isn't on to him yet.
L* Strongly driven to rebel against her stuffy, disapproving elitist mother, but also has lots of tendencies to follow in her mother's footsteps. Sort of the snooty cheerleader who sneaks a smoke in the girls' room.

6. Gim Allon of Earth, Colossal Boy, Leviathan (" of Mars), Micro Lad (" of ?)
L* Colossal Man
L* Driana Allon, Pres. Marte Ida Allon, Rogir Allon, Wynn Allon
L* Shrinking Violet, Gigi Cusimano, Yera, Triplicate Girl/Duo Damsel, Gossamer, Kinetix
L* Middle-class, yes, naive in the sense of firm belief in middle class values. Home, family, apple pie, flag, country, motherhood. He is convinced of everything - I doubt he is insecure. Everything seems black and white, value-wise. Power-wise, height is one of the best psychological allies you can have. I'm certain he is unconcerned, even oblivious to things that worry other Legionnaires. He has an easy confidence others envy, and yet it sometimes works against him. Sometimes he blunders into easily avoided situations.
L* Somewhat insecure, especially when comparing himself to some of his more "macho" teammates. Feels pressure to prove himself by hooking up with a steady girlfriend and there just is no interesting partner within the Legion (until Yera comes along).

7. Reep Daggle of Durla, Chameleon Boy, Cham, Chameleon, Orange Legion
L* Chameleon Chief, Chameleon Kid
L* Chameleon Chief, Composite Man, Ji Daggle, Liggt Daggle, Ren Daggle, Theg Daggle, Toog Lintens, Yera, Zhay Daggle
L* Supergirl, Cosmic Boy, Princess Elwinda, Janice Warren, Amb. Aplynn Jeryl, Laurel Gand, Spark, Sensor
L* Hmm. A little paranoid but he is a fighter. He knows people stare at him, but he is almost defiant. His personality is reminiscent of a slightly militant black, circa 1969. His relationship with Proty I and II should not be overblown. Cham of all people would not patronize a truly intelligent creature. Despite the Weisinger-era "dialogye" of the Proteans, I suspect they communicate simple feelings or pictures and are not human-equivalent. I doubt he resents LL but he may be jealous of Saturn Girl's rapport with Proty, his pet. Cham is unique, for a shape shifter he can identify with beauty the other Legionnaires miss. He could turn up with a shaggy, horned alien chick as easily as Elwinda. Liberal, he is - even philosophical. And probably a little kinky.
L* Another collection of contradictions. Mysterious, unfathomable, utterly alien, the consummate detective and spy. But also emotionally vulnerable, especially in matters involving anti-alien bigotr and the secretive father who "abandoned" him, R. J. Brande. Cham lacks the patience to really enjoy the leadership positions he's thrust into.

8. Lyle Norg of Earth, Invisible Kid
L* Cheshire, Evanesce, Invisible, Invisible Kid II, Invisible King, Negation
L* Lon Norg, Ryna Norg
L* Triplicate Girl, Markita, Myla, Condo Arlik, Brainiac 5
L* Extremely intelligent, quiet, possibly gay. Very much prefers to quietly blend into the ranks, but is also very capable of asserting himself as a leader when called upon.

9. James Cullen of Xanthu, a.k.a. Soul of Antares, Kid Quantum
L* King Quantum, Quantum, Quantum King
L* Proty I, Proty II ^*^ Candi "Princess" Pyponte-LeParc III, Devlin O'Ryan, Fryd Kallor, James Cullen, Jazmin Cullen, Konk, Lonna Leing, Marak Russen, Myra Kallor, Particon, Radion, Randall Burroughs, Thom Kallor, Xynthia
L* Computo II
L* His time in the Legion was shrouded in secrecy and the shame of a terrible personal secret (he was the Proty that unwittingly betrayed his race and caused its near-enslavement by Glorith). Guilt and regret have turned James into a being of enormous conscience and gentle wisdom. The Gandhi of the team.

10. Querl Dox of Colu/Yod, Brainiac 5, Brainy, B-5, Brainiac 5.1, Green Legion, Smart Legion
L* Kid Brainiac
L* Brainiac 4, Lyrl Dox, Sharn Nux, Vril Dox, Vril Dox II
L* Supergirl, Shadow Lass, Dr. Chaseer, Laurel Gand/Andromeda, Celeste Rockfish, Invisible Kid
L* A computer-brained adolescent. A child genius, who always has the right answer but most likely hasn't been laid yet. His emotions have reached from soppy-sentimentalism and self-pity to tantrums of rage. He is, however, intellectually aware of his shortcomings, giving him a bit of contol. He knows his long suit, and he attempts to think his way out of immaturity just as he thinks his way out of everything else. Oh his side he has confidence, leadership and a healthy ego. His self-approach is confined to his personality, and in any situation against any odds he has faith in his brain. Setbacks merely inspire new intellectual efforts, he treats adversity as a problem to be solved. This is a strength and a weakness, for should a foe ever shake that self-confidence or somehow negate the value of Brainy's mind, he would fall apart! All his eggs are in one basket, albeit an armor-clad one.
L* Too intelligent for his own good. It seems like he doesn't understand his teammates, but he actually understands them down to their tiniest impulses. He just hasn't quite figured out how to process all that information. He's forced himself to live in such emotional disconnect that he doesn't always respect the emotional needs in his teammates he perceives so easily. His biggest hangup: Colu genetically manufactured him and hammered into his childhood psyche the notion that his happiness didn't matter. His duty is to serve the common good of Colu.

11. Laurel Gand, a.k.a. Leala Linder, of Ricklef II, Satan Girl*, Unknown Boy*, Tiger Rose, Andromeda (" of Daxam), Sister Andromeda
L* Marvel Lass, Supergirl, Thunder, Valor Girl
L* Cil Gand, Del Gand, Eltro Gand, Kel Gand, Kivun Roxxas, Lar Gand, Lauren Gand, Lauren Gand, Marisa Gand, Meta, Zarvel Kama
L* Brainiac 5, Chameleon Boy, Rond Vidar
L* Tragedy and loneliness robbed her of a normal adolescence and she's determined to make up for it. She personifies zest for life. She loves being a super-hero and doesn't do anything half-way.

12. Jo Nah of Rimbor, Ultra Boy, Reflecto II, Emerald Dragon, Bold Legion
L* Green Dragon, Ultra, Ultra Man
L* Amb. Sten, An Ryd, Arna Nah, Brin Londo, Crav Nah, Cub Nah, Mytra Nah, Ronn Nah, Stig Ah
L* An Ryd, Phantom Girl/Apparition, Spider Girl, Ginny, Saturn Girl, Princess Projectra
L* For whatever reason in his background he is kind of a depressing person. He equates being negative and sober and worried and dull with being serious about what he is doing. His humor is strictly sardonic, a kind of black humor. He is always certain that the worst will happen. Even Phantom Girl, the love of his life, is a source for more dire imaginings on his part. He is certain she will die, or be hurt, and is vastly overprotective. On the good side, he is strong, solid, dependable and absolutely devastating in anger. He angers easily. He bears authority well and can lead, but his judgment is suspect - it is occasionally bent by his bleak outlook and a system or priorities that puts Phantom Girl over everything. He is, however, selfless and bright and willing to risk his own life often in a morbid, intense, almost passionate rage. Ultra Boy would be hell in bed. He undoubtedly, however, makes gentle, tender (and expert) love to Phantom Girl and saves his occasional forays into the bizarre for someone less angelic to him - say Dream Girl. This guy is probably the Legion's closest to being a mental case. Though he would deny it, he needs a Bouncing Boy type - I think he is smart enough to know that. But BB is gone now... hmm...
L* A street rat with a heart of gold. Raised in the squalor of an amoral frontier world, he picked up from his parents an unyielding sense of morality. From his hardscrabble background he picked up the resourceful intelligence of somebody who's survived a thousand scrapes that would have wiped out those of us from more genteel worlds. Yes, he's overmatched by Tinya's charms and powerful personality, but it all works out. Given some of the secrets he's carrying around, he desperately needs to be underestimated, and coming off as Tinya's big, dumb plaything doesn't hurt that cause.

13. Thom Kallor of Xanthu, Star Boy, Sir Prize
L* Starman, Starforce, Weight Wizard
L* Candi "Princess" Pyponte-LeParc III, Devlin O'Ryan, Fryd Kallor, James Cullen, Jazmin Cullen, Konk, Lonna Leing, Marak Russen, Myra Kallor, Particon, Radion, Randall Burroughs, Xynthia
L* Xynthia, Phantom Girl, Dream Girl/Dreamer, Yvyya Val
L* A big fullback of a guy, he is slow, steady, faithful, honorable, reliable, loyal, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. And dumb. And probably hung like a horse, which will be the deciding factor in Dream Girl's settling down with him in that isolated observatory.
L* Maybe not as bright or as deep as most of his teammates, but Thom is a good man who really believes in the Legion way. And he's determined and earnest enough to make it work. Initially, he and Dream Girl were a good match, but as Nura matured, she came to overshadow him in virtually all areas except simple strength of character, and that's left a gap in Nura's life since they split.

14. Salu Digby of Imsk, Shrinking Violet, Vi, Virus, LeVIathan II, Violet, Atom Girl
L* Atom Woman, Ion, Micro
L* Arn Digby, Ion, Lalo Muldroon
L* Duplicate Boy, Matter-Eater Lad, Sun Boy, Lightning Lass, Devlin O'Ryan, Leviathan, Chuck Taine, Ferro
L* More than a little like a female version of Ultra Boy. She is very hung up on Ultra Boy. She is very hung up on Duplicate Boy and is rather a depressive sort - but not as extreme as U-Boy. Just being a girl helps, because it is easy to relax into a follower's role and her essential underlying morbidity is interpreted as shyness. She is very emotional, bright, attractive, and confusing to simpler types like Colossal Boy who can't understand that she is happiest when wallowing in loneliness, suspicion, doubt, and fear. She gets all her weird sex from Duplicate Boy and waiting and worrying just makes it sweeter.
L* Painfully shy, insecure and possibly not quite competent in the early years. Probably was dealing with issues of sexual identity, not able at first to accept her lesbian nature. Never really had it together until she found Ayla, but after that, she becomes one of the Legion's best.

15. Dirk Morgna of Earth, Sun Boy, Wildfire (in body), NRG (in body), Inferno, Phy're
L* Fire Lad, Inferno II, Sunburst, Sun Man, (" of Arion Star or Shwar)
L* Dr. Derek Morgna
L* Shrinking Violet, Laurel Kent, Gigi Cusimano, Circe, Catspaw, "pink-skinned girl", Keiki, X-Bomb Betty
L* Your typical upper-middle-class happy, well-adjusted, A & B student, put-together, fun guy. He doesn't have to screw Dream Girl, he undoubtedly gets enough action on his own.
L* He turned out during our run to be a tragic hero, raised on the notion that you had to win, no matter what the cost. He really tried to rise above the fuzzy morality of his upbringing and win within the rules, but that meant pushing himself beyond his limits and he suffered a nervous breakdown. Probably never fully recovered from that, leaving himself all too vulnerable to corrupting influences during the Great Collapse of the Five-Year Gap.

16. Chuck Taine of Earth, Bouncing Boy
L* Ballistic Boy, Ballistic Man, Bouncer, Rebound
L* None
L* Iresa, Triplicate Girl/Duo Damsel/MM-SS, Violet
L* Self-effacing, insecure, burdened with feelings of inadequacy, and yet - he is more together and competent than most people suspect, especially himself.
L* A great guy. Fun, supportive and far more valuable a team member than anyone realized. Made the most of everything he had.

17. Tenzil Kem of Bismoll, Matter-Eater Lad
L* Calorie Kid, Calorie King, Catalyst, Chemical Kid, Chemical King, Matter-Eater, Matter-Eater Man, Omnivore, (Amb. ")
L* Mitz Kem, Rall Kem, Renkil Kem, Taryn Loy
L* Shrinking Violet, Eyeful Ethel, "Madame Prosecutor", Saturn Queen
L* A student, a scholar, a leader type, but not in the Legion. He is heroic and loyal and dedicated and intelligent and clever and too valuable to be out of place in the Legion. As a Legionnaire he brought up the rear and his valuable qualities were largely wasted in a context where they were not in demand. One doesn't negotiate with Mordru. He is a fine person who had to come from behind, in the sense of having a dismal background, to succeed - he has, and will.
L* He was the one LSHer who understood that life was meant to be fun and being a Legionnaire was the greatest gig in the universe. Absolutely understood how ridiculous his power and code name were and loved being a living, breathing Monty Python routine.

18. Lar Gand of Daxam, Mon-el, Legionnaire Lemon, Marvel Lad, Valor (" AND Eltro Gand), Champion, M'Onel, Wanderer, Valorous Legion
L* Dev-em, Impulse (KS), Superboy, Valor Boy
L* Cil Gand, Del Gand, Eltro Gand, Kel Gand, Kivun Roxxas, Laurel Gand, Lauren Gand, Lauren Gand, Marisa Gand, Meta, Zarvel Kama
L* Shadow Lass/Umbra, Triplicate Girl/Triad, Glorith
L* He is, as Cary Bates defined him, basically insecure. Contrary to what many people say, he has not had a thousand years of life to his credit, but due to the homostatic nature of the zone, he has had the same year 1000 times. That is... the zone.
L* An immensely heroic figure. Perhaps the greatest hero of all time. Utterly dedicated to serving others and paying whatever price is necessary for the common good. A thousand years in the Phantom Zone? No sweat. (It was the Eltro Gand personality projected into Mon-el's psyche that couldn't handle the Phantom Zone memories, not Mon-el, himself.)

19. Jan Arrah of Trom, Mystery Lad, Element Lad, Alchemist, Progenitor
L* Elemental, Element Man, Golden Boy
L* Arn Arrah, Garra Arrah, Tarn Arrah, Valla Arrah
L* Lightning Lass, Marya, Shvaughn Erin/Sean Erin, Triad Orange, Monstress
L* Hmm. An introvert who covers with snappy patter! Could be gay, who knows? He is confident, almost arrogant. He has a right to feel very special, and his is an overwhelming power.
L* Came out of a society that had to teach their offspring from infancy not to turn their playmates into molybdenum anytime they get into a fight over the tinker toys. So he's a youth of vast discipline and spirituality. That's meant all these years he's been secretly, methodically dealing with the unspeakable horror of Roxxas' slaughter, coping in his own intensely private way. That's meant there's such disconnect between Jan's physical impulses and what his mind allows him to act upon, that questions of sexuality (yes, he's gay) are almost irrelevant.

20. Ayla Ranzz of Winath/Amarta, Lightning Lad II, Lightning Lass, Light Lass, Pulse, Gossamer, Spark, Live Wire II
L* Lamprey, Light Lady, Lightning Woman, Sparkler
L* Amb. Kaye, Bran Londo, Brin Londo, Dacey Ranzz, Dorrit Ranzz, Garridan Ranzz, Garth Ranzz, Graym Ranzz, Loni Londo, Luc Ranzz, Mekt Ranzz, Perla Ranzz, Pres. Fegg Arn, Vaz Ranzz
L* Element Lad, Lone Wolf/Timber Wolf, Magnetic Kid, Shrinking Violet (Vi), Mordecai, Leviathan, Chameleon
L* Not as plain as you paint her. Perhaps she has developed since the disguise incident (when she was surely on super-hormones!) She is fairly bright, and a samaritan, a good match for Timber Wolf who needs a non-dominant, pleasant and patient girl. I think she is actually very feminine. She used to wear high heels.
L* She's mother earth. The sweetest, most nurturing, most empathic person you'll ever meet, the ultimate expression of the well-adjusted, naturalistic culture of Winath. She also deals beautifully with life's darkened moments, though her emotional Achilles' heel is facing up to the pathological behaviors of her renegade brothers Garth and Mekt. Also secretly harbors an eternally unrequited love for... Saturn Girl.

21. Nura Nal of Naltor, Dream Girl, Dreamy, Miss Terious, Dreamer (" Schnappin)
L* Dream Woman
L* Kenz Nuhor, Kiwa Nal, Mysa Nal, Norak Kun, Yvyya Val
L* Kenz Nuhor, Star Boy/Sir Prize, Atmos, unnamed flirtations
L* I never believed that she scientifically changed Light Lass' power. It could only have been White Witchcraft - and for some reason WW didn't watch the Legion to know about her. Dream Girl is dumb. Her power is more or less hit or miss in value (though it is always accurate) and I'm sure her main service to the Legion is in her quarters after dark. She needs constant reassurance of her value, and since her Legion career has been less than stellar, the only way to get psychologically stroked is to allow herself to be physically stroked. By anybody. She has a need for love, adoration and reinforcement of her narcissistic self-image. Star Boy is either too dumb to realize this, or has resigned himself to it. His most fervent wish is to get her off to some godforsaken observatory somewhere, alone. Forever.
L* Formidable. Her sexuality is a force on par with Brainiac 5's intellect, Mon-el's strength, Cosmic Boy's dedication. In part because of her power and in part because she's a very smart cookie, she can see many more moves ahead in the chess game of life than anyone else. And that's pretty useful when you can turn any corruptible male into your pawn. Luckily, she works for the good guys.

22. Val Armorr of Earth, Karate Kid (" of Omega Colony)
L* Karate King, Samurai, Sensei, Shogun, Tao, (" of Lythyl the Omega Colony)
L* Black Dragon, Toshiaki White Crane*, Valentina Armorr
L* Noriko Kashu, Princess Projectra/Queen Projectra, Iris Jacobs, Lialla
L* Definitely scrutable. Blunt. Forward, open, sometimes rash, impulsive, hot-headed. He is exactly as he seems. Courageous, loyal, and bright, believe it or not. He can lead, but mostly prefers to be alone or operate with relative autonomy. He'll work with a group, but prefers many options to many orders. He can think deep, but doesn't want to - he is, in many ways, an artist!
L* Here's a guy who's mentall disciplined himself to such a degree that he can give Superboy a run for his money. The problem is, Karate Kid has trouble dealing with teammates who work with and expect so much less of themselves. Well-matched with Princess Projectra, who also has occasional trouble regarding her teammates as worthy equals.

23. Hart Druiter of Myar, Nemesis Kid
L* Nemesis, Nemesis King
L* None
L* None

24. Andrew "Andy" Nolan of Earth, Ferro Lad, Ferro, Iron Legion
L* Ferro Man
L* Douglas Nolan, Luiza Karamonte Nolan, Nancy Nolan
L* Inferno, Violet, Dr. Mollie D'Ennum
L* Being a repulsive freak of nature has given Andrew a devil-may-care streak that almost borders on fatalism. There seems to be a death wish lurking somewhere in there, and a determination to have as much fun and shake up his teammates as much as possible until the inevitable end comes.

25. Projectra "Jeckie" of Orando, Princess Projectra, Queen Projectra, Sensor Girl, Sensor (Jeka Wynzorr), Coiled Legion
L* Sensor Woman
L* Amb. Ganet, Hagga, King Charlz, King Voxv, Pharoxx, Prince Wyllm, Queen Kathren
L* Karate Kid, Chameleon, Ultra Boy
L* Was not a political admission. She is proud of her noble background and yet does not want to be separated from her friends by station. KK is a natural for her because he'd act the same before the King of Razamataz as he would with Sam the Streetsweeper. She'd say, "I'm a Princess" and he'd say, "Far out! Wanna screw?" Opposites do attract - her couth and class offsets his rowdy behavior and vastly different culture. She is somewhat lost in this technological world, he is at home. She is a mystic, he has grown up amid science - and yet, perhaps the Oriental half of Val is more in tune with Projectra's background. She is very duty-oriented, and to conduct herself in public, anyway, as a princess, is very important to her. She believes in her own nobility and that belief is the source of what courage, honor, loyalty and strength she has.
L* A regal demeanor, with all that implies. Perhaps because of inbreeding within noble lines, she seems especially susceptible to some debilitating mental viruses, but Jeckie has admirably rallied back from those difficulties.

26. Tasmia Mallor of Talok VIII, Shadow Lass, Shady, Shadow Woman, Umbra, Dark Legion
L* Shadow Lady
L* Grev Mallor, Kahnya Natanie, Lydea Mallor, Lyrissa Mallor, Tarnia Tolarn
L* Brainiac 5, Mon-el/Valor/M'Onel, Eltro Gand
L* A romantic, a busybody, probably a gossip and a bright, sexy, sultry, swinging chick who is a lot of fun for Mon-el.
L* She's a great hero, but also a bit of a schemer and manipulator. Has a dark side and can be a brat. All of which makes her a great partner for stuffy Mon-el, getting him to loosen up and enjoy life a little more.

27. Condo Arlik of Phlon, Chemical King
L* Catalyst, Chemical Kid
L* Darvon Arlik, Volta Arlik
L* Invisible Kid
L* Hmm. I pictured him as a rich kid who sees this Legion biz as one big, happy, nifty-neat adventure. A likeable 30th Century kid-from-the-big-house-in-the-hill who never saw hard times and approaches disaster, chaos, and destitution with a let-them-eat-cake-naivete. He is a real chin-up character who firmly believes things will work out because they always have for him. It's fun for him... to the end.
L* A minor character that we never wrote and never got to use much. Robert Loren Fleming's excellent Secret Origin seems like the definitive take on the character.

28. Brin Londo of Zoon/Zuun, Lone Wolf, Timber Wolf, T-Wolf, Furball, (" of Rimbor)
L* Wolf Boy, Wolf Man
L* Bran Londo, Brin Londo, Dr. Mar Londo, Karth Arn*, Loni Londo, V'Layla "Nanette" Keely ^*^ Amb. Sten, An Ryd, Arna Nah, Crav Nah, Cub Nah, Mytra Nah, Ronn Nah, Stig Ah
L* Lightning Lass/Light Lass, Saturn Girl, Marella Tao, Gemini, Jewel, Apparition
L* Second to Ultra Boy as the Legion's leading fruitcake. He is probably as neurotic as Ultra Boy, but exclusively about his own identity. He covers his interior uncertainty with coldness and hostility. Fortunately, Light Lass is enough of a romantic to be turned on by this aloof stance. Ultra Boy thinks he knows himself while Wolf knows he doesn't. This alone makes Wolf a more palatable personality. He is the type who will make wisecracks and noise to hide his inward uncertainty. He wants their approval and acceptance. Actually, being a goody-goody Legionnaire is hard for him, because he is more of the James Bond type, just a little vicious and nasty even though he's with the good guys. I think Light Lass had to lead him by the hand to bed, but thanks to her, he undoubtedly does well there now.
L* Our idea for Brin was that his Zuunium treatments were a kind of super-steroid, giving him powers, but also warping his mind. We thought the look of his Cockrum appearance was by far Brin's best and tried to establish that as his actual native appearance, but never got that story published.

29. Drake Burroughs of Earth, Wildfire, NRG (" AND Dirk Morgna's remains), Atom'x (Randall Burroughs of Xanthu) AND Blast-Off (Jahr Drake Ningle of Earth), Fire Legion
L* Energy Boy
L* Prof. Vultan, Squire Burroughs, Zera Vultan
L* Kerri Wong, Dawnstar/Shikari, Lamprey, Nightwind, Shikari
L* Bleah. How dull. A hothead, yes. A bright but juvenile person (?) who is dull, dull, dull.
L* He always seemed like the flattest, most 2-D character of the lot. But in a way, he was the perfect character to take the role of the inevitable upstart, the loudmouthed newcomer who just doesn't understand or respect the greatness that proceeded him. I liked him a lot more as the traditional hero of his original couple appearances, and he was on his way to being one of my all-time favorites, until they came up with the Marvel-inspired hothead business.

30. Troy Stewart of Marzal, Tyroc, Scream of the Devil
L* Echo, Sonic Boy, Sonic Man, Sonik
L* None
L* Computo II
L* Another painfully 2-D character and an anachronistic one to boot. During the Giffen run, he blossomed into a powerful, dedicated presence, a voice of experience.
