I've noticed that being the only contestant and having a lot of time are helping quite a bit with my success Speaking of time..it's time to dig through those back issues, so that you guys have a question...

If you hit the George and Marv era, I might be ablet o play a little, been a long time since I've really read them. I kept waiting for the newer books to get good but they never did.

And while you're at it you can multi-task for Non-Legion trivia too and breathe at the same time? You're asking a lot...oh me breathing was optional was it.. fine... Better than wading through the titans box is the issues of ICG's Titans Index. No idea when I got these. It certainly wasn;t with the Legion, or before that, the JLA ones... but a trove of Titans stuff in them. Oh, and questions. Questions like... Who was the first Titans Reject?

I remember that one, Beast Boy, Gar Logan. He was too little or something.

I kinda remember that. I think his evil guardian also wouldn't let him join?
On the off-chance that's not the right answer.. How about Bat-Girl?

Yay, It was Gar with a cover of him being mind controlled and attacking the Titans at a Circus.
His guardian wouldn't let him join because of his age. It may have said that's a reason he flunked out of the Doom Patrol too, but my inner sloth won't allow me to reach over to check.
All yours Rickshaw!

Hm. Okay.
What was the main "physical" clue that sent Dick and Donna off to discover her origins before her wedding to Terry Long? Remember, physical clue.

Was it someone's age? Like someone being either too old or too young to fit the timeline of Donna's history?

memory cell tells me they found the doll in the burnt out building where Wonder Woman had found Donna. They tried to trace it to the person that made it, that might have led to an orphanage...memory cell fades...gets out comic...gosh this is convoluted.
Donna's natural mother, Dorothy Hinckley, had a terminal illness. She puts Donna up for adoption. The orphanage gives Donna to Carl & Fay Evans. They had Donna for two years but were forced to give Donna up for adoption when Carl Evans died. Donna was then the victim of a child kidnapping ring, run through the orphanage. That's what brought her to the apartment where the blaze was. The couple that took her didn't adopt her and Wonder Woman rescued her from the blaze. Wonder Woman made Donna her legal ward..like Bats and Robin. Donna got her powers from the Amazon's purple ray.
Who is Donna Troy? was one of the many wolfman/perez high points in that run, even if it was a load of retconning. I also really liked the post crisis Who is Wonder Girl? where they removed all the Wonder Woman aspects replacing them with the Titans of Myth.
Knowing the original Wonder Girl was simply a younger version of Wonder Girl, I probably prefer that version. But it's a good story, even if Grayson is led by the nose by Donna to her adoptive family.
Of her original origin, Wonder Woman at a younger age... if she was to work alongside her older self, that would be time travelling involved....and that opens up some interesting Legion possibilities...
New question...Now! . Thank you ICG!
What three gimmicks did the impostor Flips use when going up against the Titans?

1) Turn their powers against them 2) Impersonate them one by one 3) Make them fight against each other

no to all of those. A hint would be that all three were physical objects.

Flying Boots and yo yos are along the right sort of lines, in that the answers are things that US teens would be into.

1) MP3s 2) Jetpacks 3) Social media By the way, sorry for the nag, but you might not have noticed that you're also up on Legion Trivia. Wow! You have the open questions on Legion Trivia, Titans Trivia, Non-Legion Trivia AND Thinking of a Legion character! don't forget to breathe

>thump< Collect 'em all kids! This was in the '60s so only jet packs would have been suitable As everyone in the '50s thought they were on their way >sigh< One of the items was customised for flight though...

Hmm... Now let's see, what had been invented during the 60s?
1) A hang-glider 2) Radio 3) Afro hair (?)

A hang-glider is the closest of those, but the flying one isn't something that normally would fly. But stick with things things teens think to be cool.

I like the shades idea. An idea ahead of it's time, if you were a Titans writer in the '60s.
really, really close with 2)
