Kent has joined the Legion in hopes of learning medical skills in which to cure his younger brother Devem who was crippled in a recent running.

FLYING FOX-- the mystery mammal. He boasts of a link to the obscure hero of Earth's WWII. Is he that hero's implausible reincarnation? A mystical familiar claiming his independant identity? A possible friend for Cosmic Boy as an ancient history buff?

FLYING FOX has 'individual evolution' powers... he and his people boast of their unmatched abilities to adapt to any environment. He has the mystical ability to instantly do just that.

In addition to 'individual evolution', FOX can induce euphoric states in those around him. "More than one way to fly..." is his motto.

The Council of Vulpanity has issued a condemnation of the coloration of this sentient. "Murky *brown*? <snarl... yip...> Anyone can see the glorious orange/red or so-white-it-hurts of a true Vulpine's fur!"

[Linked Image]

the GAS GIANT... who can grow to enormous proportions, but only in a gaseous state. Sort of comibines the abilities of Apparition and Leviathan. When gaseous and enlarged (there's a pretty combination...), he can effect unpredictable changes in biological beings through which he 'passes'-- or who pass through him.

[Linked Image]

DEVILFISH... has water-creating powers. The fish-head is actually his entire body... the 'humanoid exoskeleton' it rests upon was foisted upon him by the image-conscious (or overly whimsical) Athramite consultants.

STONEBLOK... I really hope there're connections to both Dryad AND Zwen, somehow... and absolutely *no* relationship to Darkseid or Apokalips. I *am* suprised at how much I'm looking forward to learning the background of this character.

KENT SHAKESPEARE... IMPULSE? Hopefully, he'll retain the medical background and will be a team medic sometime down the road.

[Linked Image]
LOVE the idea of an updated CHOLOROPHYLL KID!!!! I didn't even *think* of Lamprey when I saw this character... she wouldn't be the same without the dramatically long hair, IMO.

Now if there's just some sort of connection to the DODA NETWORK, I'll really be happy...

I really liked that story actually! I liked all three of those Academy members too! Tomb would've made a great Legion villain I think. And I was glad to see Cannus get props by being one of the final 5 selections in the Legion Try-Outs issue.

The other Showcase Legion story with Gim, Gates and Jenni versus Holdur and Quicksand was also great. And wasn't there another one with Gim, Gigi and Shvaugn about the Science Police? I enjoyed that one too.

I really miss that series!

Actually, that's a bit of an assumption that his logo says "Instructor". From context I would say that is actually "Obstructor" King, the lad with the ability to spontaneously create elaborate obstacle courses.

The more I think about it, ala "Porcupine Pete" or "Nasal Hazel", I think it's highly likely we're looking at "Obstructor Otto".

That's certainly not something we see a lot of, Australian Aborigine-inspired heroes!

Even less those not tied to the Dreamtime (Talisman, Gateway)!

I got the idea from a three volume english manga called "The Dreaming". (NOTHING to do with the Sandman)

Grow Guy, G.R.L., Bubble Babe, Socket Girl, & Blast Girl?
Anyone have full panel scan of these cadets? For the life of me I cant remember most of them.

Grav-3, Toad Boy, Shades and Cromium?


Guy on the right could be Aluminum Al. His powers were that he maintained the properties of Aluminum.

Agree with guy on the left. Creates a six foot cube where gravity doesn't work smile Great for letting little kids play in.

The blond-haired guy is later seen super big, I think.

And could the blasting Orange skinned girl possibly be Mandala?

The one I really would like to know more about is the flying girl in the far back. I can't really make out any of her look and I don't think she's ever in another image? I really can't even tell what color her hair is here. And is that a cape?
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Who Am I? - 10/18/15 02:05 PM
Mandalla's skin tone and hair are a decently close match to blasty girl with the long green hair, but I'm not sure if that's how her powers (which are to "project a thought sphere to engulf her target, causing hallucinatory, distorting effects by interfering with one's bio-electrical system") were manifested. I'm not sure we ever saw her use her powers either.

Is Mandalla not orange? Have I been seeing that color wrong my whole life? Have always thought she was part Titanian, part Tamaranean...

Here's a close up of the flying girl.

Is that red thing her hair, or a tiny adorable cape?

Also, this seems like the best thread to ask: Did Particon from the Postboot ever get a real name?
Posted By: Invisible Brainiac Re: Who Am I? - 10/18/15 04:00 PM
Particon never did get a real name, sadly. I had to think of a name myself when I used her in my writing.

As I see it, the top of head is yellow-ish, so I'm interpreting her as having short blonde hair and a tiny adorable cape!

FTR, I also see it as an adorable cape with short blond hair.
