Oh, not too bad. I'm feeling a bit disjointed due to the collapse of the "old" DC boards, but I'm getting used to things here (and the "new" boards, to some extent).
How are things in Capitalist China? I seem to recall that you had given up looking for a comic book store and were going to order 'em by mail or something. Also, how's the whole SARS thing affecting everyone?

And while I'm at it, any other requests? I'd like to get a few more before I send them off to Rob.
Arm-Fall-Off-Boy's only appearance (besides as Splitter) was in SECRET ORIGINS #46 (Dec 89).
I've scanned a panel from that issue, but as I said earlier I'm having a hard time keeping the 1kb rule and still being able to make out what the picture is supposed to be. If you don't have the issue I'll e-mail you the panel that I've scanned or any other panel of armsfalloffboy's choosing.

Hi Stuey!!!
Great To See You here!
The SARS thing is kinda Scarey. That's why i got the PnuemoVax shot. It's a Once in a Lifetime shot that protects ya from pnuemonia.
I don't know if it's truly 100% effective, but I'm glad I got it.
Does that help allieve anyone's fears? :)
Anyway, it's great to see you guys here.
Yes, I am going through a disorientation period in here.
It's kinda like being in grade school for 7 years, going from Kindergarten to the Sixth grade, speding five days a week with the same kids, growing up with them, making friends, getting to the SIXTH grade ( Yay! ) and being a big shot, but you are a big fish in a small pond...Then you graduate, and start all over again in a New schoool..Junior high...and onlya few of the kids you grew up with are there, and there's a LOT of new kids.
I got very lost the first day or two trying to find my classes..and I had a different teacher for each one now.
So Now, here we are, the gang from the old DC Legion boards. Some of us are here, which is great! It's a * NEW * place, bigger and unknown...Let's continue Legion Chat and make new Friends!
MLLASH : Love the Topics you posted...LoL.
Hugs to all

Thanks Eryk,
How are You today?
Gee, The Legion was kinda mean to applicants with powers that they felt were wrong for the Legion.
They shoulda Read Andrew Carnegie's HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE.
They MIGHT have said, " Calamity King, that's an Awesome power you have there, but you need training to learn to focus it a bit better. Come back when you have learned to do this, ok? Good Luck! "
Instead, they behaved more like it was THE GONG SHOW.
How rude!

Go ahead and e-mail that panel you have and I'll see if I can work it down for Eryk. If I can't I'll sent it to Rob who seems to do pretty good at getting them down to size.

I was PoohBah42 on the old DCMBs; my new name is comics-related (well, slightly ![[wink]](images/icons/wink.gif) ) but still reflects my British Comedy fixation. I may keep using PB42 if I ever get around to registering at the new DCMBs; I gather "Bicycle Repair Man" may be too long to qualify as a valid username there! Appalling, no? quote: Originally posted by Beardguy57:

Ah, LSH Trivia! Now I feel at home!
Nemesis Kid was a Legion member. Rejected applicants ... Spider-Girl, "Radiation Roy" ... hmmm ... Ron-Karr?

Well, at least these boards (and the new DCMBs, for that matter) are working nicely in Netscape 7.02.
I also noticed that they made a few improvements to the autocensor over on the DCMBs. Talking about DICK Grayson or Dave COCKrum doesn't make it balk now.

Still haven't found one, although I know they're about. Should be heading back to Perth in the next few months anyway. In the interim I've been buying them on-line or when I've travelled overseas.
SARS is a bit overblown, to be honest. More people die of regular pneumonia than SARS. My family in Australia have been pretty bothered by the sensationalist news reporting. But living here... it was a bit disconcerting for a while, but it just hasn't manifested as a real issue.

Hey Michael FabuLash -
Yup, I was thrilled to see there was a Lu avatar and now it's mine, ALL MINE!!! I welcomed the chance to change my profile name too - the old one was a bit unseemly looking.
Thanks for the friendly welcome!
I think it's going to be fun here.

Hey Markk -- good to see you here! :) :) :)
Your avatar is one of my all-time favorite Luornu images, from one of my favorite Legion covers.
I hope everything is well in your neck of the woods, with the SARS scare and everything...

Hey Stu -
That WAS a great cover for Lu - it seemed to convey a certain mystique to her power of triplicating.
As to SARS - I live and work in Toronto and our biggest problem has been the economic backlash for this city. Although it was necessary to take the outbreak seriously, the media, as usual, blew things way out of proportion. This Monday is an American holiday. We usually see a lot of our U.S. neighbours up here spending cheap Canadian dollars on that day. I hope this year will be no different. It's funny - I came out as gay to my parents 20 years ago and in all of that time they never asked me about AIDS or if I was being careful. And yet, the day SARS hit the papers my Mom called to ask if I was alright. It's a good thing SARS isn't sexually related - no need for a conspiracy of silence.

Nit-picky time(sorry ): I think your avatar came from an Adam Hughes pic, possibly from the "roll call" of the issue of LEGIONNAIRES (#7, wassit???)he drew, and not the Alan Davis cover to LSH 99. Both images are very similar, though...
