Didn't Giffen do a space alien version of Captain Carrot recently?


First comic books ever bought: A DC four-for-47-cents grab bag that included Adventure #331. The rest is history.

There is, of course, super-popular retroboot character Death Bunny, who on closer inspection turned out not to be very bunny-esque, but...

Thanks guys!

I don't think Death Bunny would be something I can use, but you never know...

Yeah, I didn't figure it would, but it was the only vaguely relevant thing I could think of.

When Triplicate Girl replicates herself all her bodies act independently. This means Triplicate Girl #1 (the original body) could be at Legion HQ; Triplicate Girl #2 could get on a spaceship and fly to a different planet and #3 could be in a different dimension or time, such as 20th century earth.

When it comes time to rejoin her bodies, how would this work? Would that mean that when Triplicate Girl #1, the original body decides to rejoin, Triplicate #2 would instantly find herself at Legion HQ despite the fact that she is millions of miles away? Would Triplicate Girl #3 be able to join them even though she is in a different time?

I kinda have my suspicions on how this would work but I want to get some Legion World opinions on the matter. Keep in mind this must match up with the comics portrayal of her power and is for a role playing game.

I believe it's been pretty consistent that her selves have to be close spatio-temporal proximity in order to re-integrate.

When one-half of Duo Damsel falls in love with Nam-Lor, (Action Comics 380) she develops a separate personality, calling herself Lelith. Luornu cannot re-merge with Lelith, without both being near each other, and both consenting. Luornu does not even know where Lelith is, or what she has been doing, until the two finally do merge—at which time, Luornu gains Lelith’s memories, but not her personality.

When Starfinger kidnaps Duo-Damsel-Orange just before her wedding, Duo-Damsel-Purple has no idea where she has gone, and cannot call her back.

Again, when Glorith kidnaps half of Luornu in 5YL, and turns her into her minion, the Luornus are unable to merge without mutual consent—even with physical contact.

Can’t think of any similar instances in later incarnations of the character, but it’s pretty clear that what we are looking at are three separate, independent individuals.

From the Reboot, In Legionnaires 24, it was established that all three needed to be conscious to reintegrate. Neutral Lu was comatose and had to be woken up.

The 3 bodies were just in or around Legion HQ when Neutral was attacled by thugs. The other two could feel her pain as she was attacked but they could not reintegrate across that distance.

On the other hand they do not have to physicaly touch to merge as long as they are close enough in distance. In Legionnaires 45 each of the three was being restrained by a different henchman. They merged suddenly, knocking all three out.

Thanks EDE. This is actually very helpful - if I don't use Death Bunny herself it gives me free reign to create somehing new!

Threeboot may be the biggest Unknown, as due to her origin story and the Dominator torture we know it doesn't work _quite_ like the other universes, but everything we saw suggests it's at pretty functionally similar to Preboot and Reboot.

I'm a little late to the party, but let us not forget Hoppy, the Marvel Bunny, his girlfriend Minnie, Shazam the Old Wizard Bunny, and Captain Black Bunny (a resident of one of that dimension's Hells).

Hoppy & co. hail from the town of Funny Animalville, on Earth-C-plus. Hoppy and Minnie have pink fur, unlike any rabbits in our world. (that is, pale magenta fur) Black Bunny has white fur, only his costume is black.

Then there are the rabbit-like inhabitants of the other-dimensional world of Savoth,also known as 'Planet Flash', home of Dr. Gorflack, a 'trans-light' physicist who studies the Speed Force, supreme ruler Prime Minister Meknok, and S’kidds’kakoth, also known as S'Kidd Flash. The Savothians have interacted with every Flash from Jay Garrick (away back in the Golden Age) to Bart Allen-- and even saved Wally West's life when he was pulled into the speed force.

Savothians resemble brown floppy-eared rabbits. (or maybe horses or dogs or camels) They were originally said to be amphibious.

You are entirely welcome to use my 31st-century Savothian speedster, the 23rd descendant of S'Kidd Flash, known as 23-Skidoo.

By the way, Keith Giffen has said that Captain K'Rot and Captain Carrot are distinct individuals, each residing in their own separate universes.

Thanks, Klar! This is indeed a very helpful starting point for me. Appreciate the offer to use your character too. I'll do some reading up.

DC published a book called The Oz / Wonderland Wars back in the ‘80’s.

Not only the characters from Oz and Wonderland, but Captain Carrot and the Zoo Crew were featured in the book.

As Captain Carrot also interacted with the Earth-One Teen Titans, that means Oz and Wonderland are exist in the same Multiverse as the Silver Age Earth-One and Earth-Two.

Which implies the existence (in the extended DC Universe) of the White Rabbit and March Hare (Alice in Wonderland); Haigha the King’s Messenger (Through the Looking-Glass) and Glinda’s Bunnybury (The Emerald City of Oz), a city of hyperintelligent pink-eyed white rabbits.

Not sure you want to go all Number Of The Beast in your fiction, though.

Still no Legion references.

I read that as well. Thanks for bringing it up, Klar. Not decided on whether I want to reference that in my Legion work but it is an option and a good starting point

Does anyone have scans handy of the Threeboot 'Reflecto' who freaked out after Dream Girl's death and the Threebot Radiation Roy? (The only appearance of the latter was when he energy blasted cops and someone off-panel was like "Roy, no!"

Hey guys, do we have a thread on LW that shows the female prisoners during the Super Stalag?

Also, do we have a thread dedicated to Xera, Silver Sword, Energax and Mibel?

Sorry if these questions were asked already in this thread. Damn thing is pretty big though, y'know? cool

What's the general consensus on Jor-El and Zor-El's age difference?

I know in New 52 Zor's older but I thought somewhere (perhaps during the Silver Age?) Jor was.

Hey helpful peeps! Just wondering if anything has been published that gives an idea where the rest of the Lantern Corps are at in the Legion's era....I got the Green Lanterns covered and I have quite happily invented the rest, but I thought if there HAS been any mention of future Red/Yellow/Blue/etc Lanterns it might be fun to incorporate into my story if I can....thanks in advance! smile

Only thing I can think of is Rainbow Girl from the "Superman & LoSH" arc in Action #862. Her powers were based on the "Emotional Spectrum" and she was shown using red, blue, and green.
