Legion World
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Legionnaire Pair-ups - 08/26/04 04:31 AM
This is a reboot of an old thread I remember from around here, and since the thread starter isn't posting here anymore I thought I'd reboot it, if you will.

It goes like this: the first poster gives two Legionnaires, and the next poster recalls an instance when those two interacted. If they can't think of a particular instance, they could also give something connecting these two - something deeper than "They're both female" or "They both have white in their costumes", of course. It's kind of a walk down memory lane.

Then the poster who answered gets to post another pair of Legionnaires for the next poster to recall something about. Posters can be as nostalgic as they want to be smile

Okay, first pair:

Kinetix XS
Posted By: Future Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 08/26/04 10:49 AM
KINETIX and XS: The two gals went after Lori Morning and brought her a piece of birthday cake after Lori fled her own party (Except for every old man in the Adventure era, some people just HATE it when they get de-aged).

Next pair:
COSMIC BOY StarBoy
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 08/26/04 10:55 AM
Cosmic Boy and Star Boy:

There was a scene with those two during the last part of the GDS, where they used their powers in combination to take out one of Darkseid's mindless minions.

Along with Imra, the three quickly investigated and the amazing all-blonde team returned with Brainy in tow to the clubhouse. Silly chip-in-the head scandals.

Dawnstar's tracking powers convenienently found Saturn Girl & a team of Legionnaires on a far-off asteroid right as Imra and Timber Wolf were in a compromising position. Oh, and Dawnstar happened to have Timberwolf's girlfriend/Saturn Girl's Sister-in-Law with her. Ahem.

Next: Triad and Violet
Posted By: Myg - Andy S Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 10/18/04 12:38 PM
Violet went on a platonic date with Chuck Taine, pissing Triad off because at least 1/3 of Triad wanted to date Chuck but hadn't built up the nerve to ask.

Archie Legion. Sigh.

Next: Brainiac 5 and Wildfire
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 10/19/04 04:36 AM

Next: Timber Wolf and Blok
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 10/22/04 08:06 AM
They were pretty good buddies during Levitz's run on the Legion. Both also had run-ins with the law - we all know Blok's history as a criminal, and Timber Wolf was mistaken for one in his first appearance as Lone Wolf.

Next: Polar Boy and Phantom Girl
Posted By: Future Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 10/23/04 06:10 PM
Phantom Girl reigned Polar Boy back into control when he jumped up at the meeting table to announce his running for Legion leader, something that goes against team tradition to be excited about.

Just as Saturn Girl played a major role in Legion Lost, the story where Kari first appeared, so was preboot Imra a major character in the story where Chuck was inducted.

Next: Umbra and Cosmic Boy
Posted By: Kent Shakespeare Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/15/04 02:16 AM
Umbra and Cosmic Boy both lost their homeworlds' suport during the DnA run. Tasmia was replaced by Grev, while Rokk was a criminal vigilante.

my first thought-- Shady and Cosmic Boy were impersonated by crooks seeking to rob the old, junked rocketship HQ, only to be stopped by the Subs.

Next-
Dragonmage and Kid Psycho.

NEXT: Star Boy and Colossal Boy
Posted By: lancesrealm Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/17/04 08:55 PM
Star Boy and Colossal Boy were two of the Legionnaires who picked up new cruisers from Nullport. They shared some snappy repartee while waiting.

NEXT: Tyroc and Gates
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/18/04 11:44 AM
Both of these were rather hateful of the Legion when they first met - Tyroc because of the racial issues and Gates because of his political views.

Next: Kinetix and Dreamer

Cosmic Boy and Celeste Rockfish were part of Legion-on-the-run at the end of TMK (ironically, after a bad-frame-up of being Khund collaborators, the Legion returned to super-hero standards of masks, costumes and code-names)

NEXT:
Celeste Rockfish and Sun Boy

Brainiac 5 and Timber Wolf
Posted By: Kent Shakespeare Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/20/04 01:04 AM
Brainy and Brin soloed together at the outset of the Quiet Darkness. Brainy later wracked his brains looking for a cure, and was even later the only one who knew Briin'd been sent back to the 1990s.

Next: Tyrok and Monstress
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/26/04 11:22 AM
Both have dealt with issues of discrimination - Tyroc's people once suffered from it, while Monstress endured it as revealed in her rather poignant origin story.

Next: Bouncing Boy and Star Boy
Posted By: Myg - Andy S Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/27/04 07:06 PM
Both Legion men were involved with Legion women who *might* not have been 100% faithful. While in a long-term relationship with Star Boy, Dream Girl flirted with everyone and was seen out & about on the Metropolis party circuit with another man. While married to Bouncing Boy, Duo Damsel was seen frolicking naked with Collosal Boy - while it may have been Yera masquerading as another Legionnaire, it was definitely implied that Lu's bodies had different tastes.

NEXT: Shadow Lass and Cosmic Boy
Posted By: Vee Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 11/30/04 09:56 AM
Both have a connection to the dark. Shadow Lass projects shadows which create darkness. Cosmic Boy was in a long term relationship with Night Girl, who's power manifest in the dark.

Mon & Condo
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 12/02/04 05:34 AM
Both have been isolated from human contact before: Mon while he was in the Phantom Zone, and Condo was kept in a lab before Lyle brought him home.

Next: Chlorphyll Kid and Valor
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 12/16/04 08:28 AM
Both are "seeders"; Chlorophyll Kid uses plant seeds in conjunction with his powers and Valor is the seeder of worlds.
Also, neither became active Legionnaires in their first appearances in the Legion comic. Valor/Mon held honorary statues first and Chlor was a Sub and then a reservist.

Next: Kinetix and Saturn Girl

Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 01/27/14 02:52 AM
There was an issue where they helped save some ambassadors/bigwigs (was it RJ Brande?) from attack by a group of missiles. Boy, Dream Girl's hand to hand skills were formidable and she had a good handle on how to effectively use Quislet's powers.

There was that time we both told Andromeda off when she was backbiting Cham. Then that time I asked her how it was like being married to Jo now that she was tangible again. Oh, and that time she ed in battle against the Blighted because she ended up attacking a Blighted me!

Wow. We're actually pretty good friends!

Brainiac 5 and Shrinking Violet
Posted By: cleome57 Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 04/27/14 08:56 PM
In the cartoon Legion, they teamed up to save Lightning Lad and build his artificial arm. One of the best moments in the often unsatisfactory S2.

Next:

Tellus and Lightning Lass
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 04/28/14 02:18 AM
(Agree that S2 as a whole wasn't quite as good as S1. I did like that S2 featured some background Legionnaires, like Shrinking Violet, Star Boy and Dream Girl, more).

Tellus and Lightning Lass, along with Magnetic Kid, had a mission to Braal (I think). Ayla paid more attention to Pol, though. And the three of them were sometimes regarded as "replacement" Legionnaires for the 3 founders because of their similar powers.

Oops, forgot to name a pair of Legionnaires.

Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 06/25/14 04:55 PM
When Tenzil asked Vi out on a date, it was Projectra who helped Violet dress up and who subbed for her on Monitor Duty! I always thought it was cool that the Princess wasn't at all stuck-up or snobbish or a mean girl.

Next:

Gates and Brainiac 5
Posted By: Kinetix (Zoe Saugin) Re: Legionnaire Pair-ups - 08/09/14 02:33 AM
Oh, where do I begin? They used to snipe at each other all the time (Brainy saying Gates was wasting his intelligence on "mere opinions", with Gates shooting back - is that your opinion?)

And all that bickering during the Anomaly investigation, yeesh! Space is supposed to be silent.

Then they became the best of friends after that, with Gates visiting Brainy all the time. They kept heaping platitudes on each other. Strange, but sweet.

Wildfire and Cosmic Boy
