Sun Boy? His body was then being inhabited by Wildfire?

Nope, Sun Boy's corpse was present. It was when he was re-buried that Wildfire's energies merged with him.

Does Supergirl count? Because she'd been erased from history?

Ferro Lad, because there was no physical body to resurrect?

Ferro Lad, because there was no physical body to resurrect? You would think, but the Ferro Lad corpse did appear in the cliffhanger where the Zombie Legion debuted. He vanished afterward oddly enough. Several zombies appeared that really should have been skeletons or nothing at all. Does Supergirl count? Because she'd been erased from history? I'm not factoring Superboy and Supergirl due to the nature of the Glorithverse, though they definitely qualify otherwise! The character in question was known to their teammates during the Glorithverse as deceased, was not present among the zombies, and their absence wasn't questioned in-story when it really, really should have been.

I considered Kid Quantum when I was first posing the question due to how in-story the adult Legion is never shown to be informed he is alive again. However, it's likely that Reep let them know James returned before he left for the SW6 clan.
No to Proty as well, though that certainly would have been an interesting opportunity for a Garth->Proty switch.
Hint: it's a bit hilarious no one pointed out this zombie Legionnaire was missing. After all, someone was mourning them several issues before and would again several issues later without referencing this encounter.

Oh, duuuuuuh. That makes perfect sense and I feel dumb for not thinking about Tinya.

Chaim has it! By then it was obvious to the reader the intended Tinya/Phase connection, but despite mourning her scant issues before even Jo doesn't notice her absence and what that might mean. She was no more blown up than Ferro Lad or Triplicate Girl, after all.

That was a good trivia question. And something the writers obviously forgot. A shame because I think that would have created some good mystery/tension.

I recall noticing it, and writing to the letters column about it. I don't recall if my letter got printed, my copy of those old Legion issues isn't readily accessible to me, but if anyone has handy the issues in which letters about LSH # 45 (or so) got printed, I'd love to be reminded.
What substance weakens the Emerald Eye of Ekron?

Blacula is correct, Kryptonite weakens the Emerald Eye.

I think I remember that from an old Who's Who entry.
OK, Giffen's double-page spread of the team and its supporting characters that appeared in LoSH #300 included cameos by 3 non-Legion related comic characters.
Please name them.
