It's suspicious that we haven't seen that chick who hung out with him during Secret of the LSH in a really long time either...

I imagine she had fallen for Cham, like every other girl. She was about to reveal Marla's plot when he killed her with a shirt emblem.

Marla is really good at killing off support cast! When's the last time anyone saw Shvaughn?

His name spelled backwards would be "Alram." Sounds kinda' hot.

As a kid, he endured taunts over the name "Marla" quite nicely.

He still wanted to look after Jo, despite the catastrophic deaths of the previous dozen applicants he took through time for initiation tests.

And he can eat a whole freshly baked batch of them without his ridiculously tight pants splitting open.

Speaking of his ridiculously tight pants, he's obviously good at getting them off quickly, otherwise he'd have long ago been ostracized as a health hazard.

When Brande died and left everything to his estranged son, instead of the one man who (literally) stood by him for years, Marla didn't throw a wobbler, he just grinned and bore it (then sold Cham out to the Durlans, Dominators, Fatal Five and Keith Giffen later).

Some people worry about being perceived as a tool. Marla wears tools on his chest!

Ergo, he finds Ian Gillian's 1990 solo album "Toolbox", to be an underrated treasure from more than a millennium ago.

Marla still lets Jo call him 'Mr. Crane' sometimes...

There are many Marla constructs, with each robot tasked with objectively supervising the candidacy of Legion Applicants. But none of them complain that they themselves can't get into the team, as their abilities are mechanically based.

His trousers may be tight, but not enough to make other people uncomfortable around him.
