"Fair point, Commander.
I recall some people made fun of Tuatara of the Global Guardians for having a power that was useless in combat. As if time vision wouldn't be extremely valuable, as you say, in investigating crimes. Though I imagine the…"

"I agree about the implausibility of stumbling into Luthor's lair — though as I never considered it before, obviously it worked as a twist. However I can easily buy that Luthor could set up a lair that was still running a thousand years later. "
"A fair point. As the UP Council and a lot of delegates are on Earth, I think I vaguely assumed this was covered by Boltax' policies — but reading the Commander's recounting, it isn't, is it?
Minor point, pissed as Universo is with his son, he…"

"I don't know contacting their home worlds would have helped. It's not as if Universo was, say, targeting Durlans or Carggites. Then again, losing the UP's premiere super-team might have upset the rest of the galaxy.

""The plot never specifies this but isn't too much of a stretch to believe that Universo hypnotised those hoodlums into attacking the Legion to get the princess out of the way." Yeah, I've always taken that as a given.

"Thank you. I remembered the plant creature but not the other examples. Your expertise is, as always, appreciated."
"Since we're discussing the Legion, I'd like to ask a question that came up elsewhere: what exactly are the limits on the Legion/Superman no-kill codes? Setting aside the times the writer had Superman kill someone, did they limit it to intelligent…"
"Sorry! But even without it, your post will be worth reading.

"1)The assumption the government can ban "super powers" as simply as setting a speed limit always bugs me. Cosmic Boy and Duo Damsel don't have powers in the sense Colossal Boy and Lightning Lad do — they're natural abilities (how can the courts tell…"
"Earth's electro-towers destroyed the Khund invasion fleet before — it's not like they're lying helpless without the Legion. And Khund, in the Silver Age, was on the far edge of known space — even with 30th century technology, invading is more…"
"Since first reading this, I reread the Hyperman story. Yep, that's a tear-jerker — it's surprising it hasn't been reprinted more often."

""The commando needs a blood transfusion; however, his dog tags indicate that he has the rarest of blood types---“AB”."
Which means he can take A or B blood as well as AB. He has lots of options (O blood type, while common, can only receive O blood).…"

"Now I'm remembering my first exposure to Rick Jones was "Four Against the Minotaur", the first Kookie Quartet era Avengers stories. I was quite baffled by this kid hanging around wondering why he wasn't getting into the Avengers like the newbies.
