Timber Wolf
Fave: Hmm, Brin has had several good costumes, but has he had a great costume? I'll go with Cockrum.
Least: Weren't both Brin and Laurel stuck in red ponchos in "Legion on the Run"? Didn't suit either of them, IIRC, but especially an acrobat -- too easy to get tangled up in your own clothes! LotR.

Triad
Fave: 2boot jumpsuit (I believe I mentioned I'm a Jeff Moy fan)
Least: Well, I'm not satisfied with her current look (Barry turned her 2boot pageboy bob into Helmethair); the cape and the hair saved her otherwise dull Adventure-era outfit; I believe I'll go with the Legion-Academy-instructor 2-tone jumpsuit -- another case of a bad hairstyle tipping the scales.

Chameleon Boy
Not Applicable: All of Cham's costumes have been mediocre, but that's OK for him: his visual is all about him using his powers, so it's appropriate that he's never had a distinctively good *or* bad costume.

Blok
Fave: More or less by default, I have to go with his original grey-on-grey look; colorful clothes just never looked right on him.
Least: Toon -- the collar is bigger than his head! What's up with that?! confused

Dawnstar
Fave: Original, again more or less by default; nothing else she tried ever impressed me.
Least: LotR.

Polar Boy
Fave: Lightle's silver-skullcap design.
Least: Another vote for the 3boot/Wanderers "Polar Boy".

Night Girl
Fave: Original. Even with the beehive -- somehow, it worked for Lydda.
Least: Grell. Unless you're Distraction Damsel from Supermegatopia , and falling out of your costume in front of the bad guys is your standard M.O., that outfit is just too skimpy.

Light Lass, etc.
Fave: Kitson.
Least: SW6/"Gossamer".


"Gee, Brainy, what do you want to do tonight?"
"The same thing we do every night, Bouncing Boy: try to take over the United Planets!!"

Ooh! I forgot about Coipel's groovy Triplicate Girl outfit! I'll actually switch that one to being my favorite as well!

Anyone want to make a selection of Legionnaires? Anyone? Anyone?


The best way to find out where you're from is to find out where you're going and then work backwards.
Where are you going?
I don't know!

Spooooooon!!!

I should probably note that I can't remember most of the Magic Wars era costumes, nor the 5YL ones. They looked so much alike to me that I could never quite rememebr them.

Kinetix

Fave: The version of the green costume with the gloves, soft silky boots, and the frills around the short sleeves and the frills around the waist that looked like a skirt but not quite. She wore it around the Mordru battle. She was great, cute and BEAUTIFULLY alluring in that.
Least: Terrorform Zoe, if that counts. If not, I never liked her original red number that much. Green suited her much better.

Projectra

Fave: Have to be the current W/K one. Very regal.
Least: Jeckie's had her share of bad costumes... I think the worst was the red Cockrum design. I dunno, so many holes, and the color just seemed to hurt my eyes.

Star Boy

Fave: Cockrum starfield, of course. THE costume for Thom.
Least: Adventure era. Too bland.

Dream Girl

Fave: Hm... Gonna have to be a tie between Cockrum's classic bikini and Coipel's Dreamer look (with the chest window tongue ) and the belt.
Least: Nura's never really had a bad costume, but my least fave was her Adventure look.

Apparition/Phantom Girl

Fave: The SW6 look just narrowly edges out the bell bottoms one, and onyl because the SW6 cape/touchstone look just seemed to fit Tinya's powers more.
Least: Adventure. Too darned plain.


Timber Wolf

Fave: Ok, I'm kinda mixed up here. I don;t remember a lot of the ones he had, but the one that stands out is the one he had during the Great Darkness Saga.
Least: Hm... still Adventure. Hated the things on his arms.


Triplicate Girl/Triad/Duo Damsel

Fave: Tough one. The one she had as DD during the great darkness was good, but Coipel's businesswoman look is fast becoming a classic in my opinion. Tie.
Least: The one with all the holes in it, and the cape. Was that Grell or Cockrum? W/K one's a close second though.

Chameleon/Chameleon Boy

Fave: The yellow and purple combo Cham had around V3.
Least: The red and purple version. Color hurt my eyes.

Blok

Fave: Not familiar with most of Blok's, but the one I do remember is the blue and yellow pants.
Least: N/A because I can't remember.

Dawnstar

Fave: Classic look. Great for her. Made her look very hot.
Least: Hm... her Bounty look.

Polar Boy

Fave: Lightle (was it Lightle?) The one he had when he joined.
Least: N/A. His Adventure look was also pretty good, as wasthe one we saw as a cadet during DNA.


Night Girl

Fave: The one around V3.
Least: None, really. I also liked her Adventure look.

Lightning Lass/Light Lass/Gossamer


Fave: Kitson's.
Least: Hm... post Zero Hour, only because it was a rip off of Garth's.

Shrinking Violet

Fave: Moy's as well.
Least: The green dress during Baxter. Just seemed odd that new tough Vi would wear a skirt, and it seemed so retro too.

Wildfire

Fave: The one around GDS.
Least: When he was reintro'd post ZH.

Element Lad

Fave: I actually like the Kitson one.
Least: Adventure.

Saturn Girl

Fave: Tie between pink bikini (visually great) and SW6 (fit Imra's no-nonsense personality)
Least: Adventure 247, natch.

Live Wire

Fave: Cockrum's classic costume which has since become the basis of all others.
Least: Adventure 247 as well as the one he had on the rest of Adventure. The leg color made me think he was always wearing briefs!

[b]Cosmic Boy[/b[

Fave: Post ZH.
Least: The Grell one was just too weird for me. Adventure 247 too.

Kinetix
Fave: I rather liked the way Zoe looked with the tail, but of course I'm an Omaha the Cat Dancer fan.
Least: Terrorform.

Projectra
Fave: Sensor Girl red-and-white.
Least: Magic Wars.

Star Boy
Fave: Kitson.
Least: Adventure-era. Bad, bad, BAD color combinations + buzzcut = Hideous.

Dream Girl
Fave: Cockrum silver, though I like the Kitson design (yes, even *with* the cloud pants!)
Least: Coipel.

Phantom Girl/Apparition
Fave: Apparition SW6/first year of the 2boot: Tinya's best costume AND her best hairstyle, at the same time. Unfortunately they changed her hairstyle after she died.
Least: L.E.G.I.O.N. Phase.

Least: Original

Fave: The silver bikini thing
Least: No least fave

Fave: Circa 1980 with the big barrettes.

The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."
