Princess Projectra is one of the few Legion-era folk who has a name baked into her 'superhero' moniker, other than, say, Porcupine Pete... Imagine if that was another silly Legion rule?

Gigantic Gim! Dazzling Dirk! Shrinking Salu! Tenebrous Tasmia! Lepidoptera Lana!

Got any more?

Toothful Tenzil!

Interestingly, even though it wasn't really a standard Legion thing, a fair number of reader-suggested characters had that pattern (Colorless Kate, for example).

Radiation Roy and Eyeful Ethel were ones that made it un the book.

Some good ones thoth!

Napping Nura was totally gonna be one of mine, as well as Legion Luornu and Magic Mysa, but the rest are new to me!

I was thinking Thunderous Tyroc and Ten Ton Thom for those two, and Intuitive Imra and Reshapeable Reep. (Ten Ton Thom is my favorite!)

Others;

Disembodied Drake
Adamantine Andrew
Candi Crush
Kryptonian Kal
Breezy Berta
Victorious Val
Brumous* Brek

*means 'wintry?'

I didn't even think of using *last* names! Gosh, Nowhere Norg and Wraith Wazoo are totally better than trying to find something for (transLucent?) Lyle and (iTotally not Tangible?) Tinya!

Ten Ton Thom is great, Set.
Also works as Ten Ton Tel for Gravity Kid too!

I had Baltic Brekk in mind. Possibly localish slang for bloomin' cold out.

I switched to surnames, as Tangibleless was something I just made up for Tinya smile

Cosmic Cullen
Lotsa' Powers Lar and Lauren
I had Violent Val rather than Victorious Val in mind. smile
Airy Ayla
Speedy Shakespeare
Diverting Devlin
Gassy Grava

were some others

Ooh, Airy Ayla is good, and Gassy Grava! Baltic Brek is better than Brumous (kinda obscure) or 'Brrr Brek' (too silly!).

Although Ayla's an Auntie, so auntie Gravity isn't alliterative, but is perfect. smile

Someone smarter than me came up with Legionnaire Lemon Lar, for Mon-El, which is a deep cut.

I'd read Auntie Gravity and Ten Ton Thom.

Aunty Gravity Vs Aunty Monitor in a Crisis crossover issue!

Up there with Multi-Marie, Brawny Bob and Nocturnal Norcross from the first Mordru story. smile

Oh hey, I found more on my phone! Apparently I'd been taking notes as ideas hit me at work, and then, like always, I totally forgot my phone had notes on it... Such a dunce!

Toothsome Tenzil
Jogging Jenni
Amped-Up Ayla
Sassy Sussa / Suave Sussa?

Spacefaring Shikari
Lights-Out Lydda
Gigawatt Garth
