Name two Legionnaires, preboot, who spent time not once but TWICE in super-powered prison camps.

Not the two Legionnaires I'm thinking of, though if I'm forgetting a third "Legion prison camp" story just let me know!

Saturn Girl and Light Lass?
I'm not sure myself. I know Cosmic Boy and Duo Damsel were imprisoned twice, but I don't know if the other time was in a super-powered prison camp.

There's actually three instances I can think of now preboot, which adds a few more potential Legionnaires to the mix.
Due to that, both of you are correct! I'll give it to Blacula as he posted first. Imra and Nura were both prisoners of Universo's camp and the chain gang during the original outlaw story. Ayla was part of Nardo's stalag as well as the chain gang.
Imra is the only Legionnaire to serve hard time at all three prisons. She really was a badass.

Lu and Rokk were both prisoners of the Stalag as well as, during the threeboot, the Dominators. That may be the second instance you're thinking of, Ibby.

I was actually thinking of the Outlaw Legionnaires story, where Cos and Lu, plus Dirk and Garth, were caught and thrown in a different jail from the one the initial batch of prisoners were in. Both were also among Nardo's prisoners.
I had already considered both the Outlaw Legionnaires' Chain Gang and Nardo's Stalag, but rejected Legionnaires who were imprisoned in both because Three Legionnaires, and not two, were in both - Imra, Ayla and Tenzil. I overthought an reasoned that one instance could not be right because there were three possible answers.

Hm. Valid point about Universo's jailing of the four Legionnaires. I was thinking more along the lines of full blown super-powered penitentiaries and the chain gang stood out more than the Earth-bound prison. Was there anything special about that one or did they not really go into details?

I honestly can't remember. I do remember that other jail was shown on-screen because the free Legionnaires went and freed the four who were jailed there.

Who once said -
"NOW YOU'LL DIE, LEGIONNAIRES! NOT ONCE -- BUT A THOUSAND TIMES!"
- and who were they saying it to?

It was the "die a thousand times!!!!" thing that got me!!
Here's a fairly tough one that promises to be fun (for me):
The situation: Thunder is trapped in the 31st century because the Rock of Eternity exploded into chunks of eternium. She needs to reassemble it in order to return to her home time as Thunder, otherwise she can only return as her non-powered self. However, unscrupulous individuals are trying to steal the eternium because, when used properly, it can grant great power to those who touch it.
Lord Pernisius of Rimbor is using his newfound power to draw all the eternium to Rimbor, granting him even more and more power. The Legionnaires present debate - do they stop Perny now? Or do they let him collect the eternium for Thunder first and THEN stop him, gambling that he won't be too powerful yet?
So the question: DO WE STOP PERNISIUS NOW? For each of the Legionnaires below, say whether the answer was YES, NO, or UNDECIDED. The winner has to correctly guess what each Legionnaire answered. YES means "stop him now", NO means "wait and let him collect the eternium first", and UNDECIDED means "can we use the Planetary Chance Machine maybe?"
Five said YES, four said NO, and one is UNDECIDED.
