There were some great uses of magnetism brought out in that story. Not sure if they were ever really explored any more or even used again after that.

Ah, "Mettle". Another instance of Rokk's abusive behaviour, as he unmercifully slams the woman he professes to love through a wall, iirc.
One of these days, I'm going to just have to make an entire Preboot Rokk Krinn Physical & Emotional Abuse Checklist!

Lash I am 100% aboard with your assessment of Cos. Now you tell me there's even more than the Sinde escapade (S/LSH 212) and the "forehand smash" of Light Lass in the (S/LSH 215) Cos spotlights. Next your gonna tell me Cos becomes the Time Trapper.  As for a favorite spotlight, I've a soft spot for the Supergirl robot story. Shows how kooky Brainiac 5 could become without the love and support of his team-mates. Plus its got my favorite version of the Supergirl costume rendered in glorious Grell pencils. (And I love that the cape fastened around her neck. Illogical? So what?)

Off the top of my head, I'd say mid-'70s story where Cos is observing the one day of the year when Braalians are forbidden to use their powers. He ends up saving his teammates by using his flight ring to move an object (I forget exactly what it was--it's been a while ) instead of his magnetic powers. It really showed how seriously he took his commitment. It was also the story that marked the debut of the Cosmic Bustier.

Rockhopper, that Cos spotlight you mentioned was the forehand smash of Ayla (That was so hard must have left a mark). Lash pointed me to it in the Sinde thread. (S/LSH 215) Feh I wonder if the Emerald Empress would have revived him if she had seen him slap a woman across the room.  Can you tell I hate Cos?

Which issue of S/LASH was that in, Rockhopper? I vaguely remember Cos walking away as Light Lass and other Legionnaires were being blasted. The artwork was by Mike Grell and Bill Draut, if that's any help...

Apparently it was S/LSH #215, per Tamper Lad. TL, I kinda figured you weren't a Cos fan from your avatar  . That's okay. We love you anyway!

My worst habit is reading the very first post of a topic without reading those which had already answered my question - D'OH!!!!!
