Hey Kat
i couldnt help but notice while i was stalking you that you are "frightenly obsessed with neopets"
i have a neopet, dont get me wrong, i barely feed him and i dont know what the hell i'm doing, but he's alive and happy, maybe we can start a
LEGION OF NEOPETS

Anyone?

I'm all for a Legion of neopets, since they're so cute and cuddly in a pixilated way :)

Hey, now that I'm here I'll play too. I think I've filled out about four of these by now...!

Name: David

Location: Horse Cave, KY aka the Middle of Nowhere

Age: 43

Occupation: graphic designer, in between jobs

Former DCMB screen name (if different) Zoe's Love Slave, Stately Wayne Manor

Favorite Legionnaires: pre-Terraformer KINETIX, Brainy, XS

First LSH issue read: I don't remember the issue #, but it was an Adventure issue with the Super-Stalag of Space story. The first one bought with my own money was Superboy/LSH 201.

Favorite issue/arc/era: #6, the Bierbaum/Sprouse Cera Kesh/Emerald Empress/Fatal Five arc (Legionnaires 2-6, I think), the Bierbaum/Sprouse Legionnaires era. Didn't last long, unfortunately.

Favorite writers/artists/etc: Writers: Abnett & Lanning, Cary Bates, the Bierbaums (but in all fairness, Legionnaires 1-14 are the only TMB issues that I've read). Artists: Dave Cockrum, Chris Sprouse/Karl Story, Oli Coipel. Batista's not bad.

Favorite Legion memory (either story-based or your experiences/reactions/revelations/etc. regarding the book): My earliest Legion-related memory was some of us neighborhood kids playing super-heroes. When we played the Legion, I was always Sun Boy or Lightning Lad because they had red hair. I remember being really impressed and excited by the Bates/Cockrum S/LSH, only to see Cockrum leave two issues later and be replaced by Mike Grell, whose work I've never had any use for. Sorry, Lash. Hunting down the back issues of Legionnaires I missed (I started with #5) in comics shops in Dayton, Ohio, where I was training to use a graphics system. Picking up the postboot LSH with the cover that featured Tinya's hand coming out of Jo's chest, and getting interested enough to start buying again, then dropping it about a year prior to DnAnO taking over, then having to go back and track down the Legion of the Damned issues I had missed. Kind of a reoccurring motif in my Legion history. Being XS-ively concerned that XS was going to die in the issue that showed Garth gazing at her hand buried in rubble. Being an early member of the LMBP, and the great folks therein, and many crazy DCMB and Yahoo! threads. That's about all I can think of...

Favorite non-Legion comics: currently published: Jack Staff, Hellboy and BPRD-related titles, Lucifer, Hellblazer, JLA, Catwoman, Daredevil, the Ultimates, 100 Bullets, and many many more.

Other hobbies/collections/etc: Music-collecting, playing; sports, esp. pro football (go Falcons) and baseball; blogging (see link below, I also review comics weekly) and movies.

Damn, I had no idea you were such a young 'un, FNB--- you're making me feel mucho old, dude.

He's not THAT young

Yikes! I just read your siggy, Kat--- are you "jail-bait"?

No, I'm not jail-bait, I'm of legal age, although, perhaps, not by much. :lol:

One of my old buddies (he was from Casey County, KY, which is one of those "drink the beer then eat the can" kinda places ) had a saying for HIS personal take on the age of sexual consent. I present it now for the amusement and edification of the entire Legion HQ: <clearing throat>

"If she's old enough to go to the store, then she's old enough to buy bread."

Drink the beer and eat the can huh? Somebody call Man Eater Lad.

Interesting statement there, I'll have to remember that.

They sure do. :lol:

Heaven knows that my spelling gone straight to hell in a handbasket over the last year or so.

Hello all, i will be posting here and the DCMB;

My name, is Jason
My DCMB name is Cosmic Kleptomaniac
Age 32 and i work in a supermarket i live with my partner of 8 years but he aint into comics lol he likes model trains WTF!! lol

My Favourite members are Polar Boy, Shrinking Violet, Shady, Dawnstar, Star Boy,Cosmic Boy and Chuck

My first memory of the Legion was in those DC Adventure Digests back in the early eighties, and the Aussie versions of DC comics called Federal Comics they were black and white but it got the message through, i have most of the Baxter LEgion and All of the Dark Period and most of the post boot, i like most of the writers and artists

I also get JSA JLA Hawkman Flash Exiles and Birds of Prey among others but will try anything once lol

Besides comics i like the usual books movies and shit
Thats me.

I'm here for the first time exploring and there is somebody else calling himself a Polar Boy name. Not only that he's from Australia as well.
I use the name over at the DC boards but maybe its rude of me to keep it here maybe I should change. Thinking hurts my head

use all capitals to distinquish yourself from him.

welcome

Polar Boy

I have had a play around with my profile and you can't change your user name. So it looks like it's my destiny to be a crappy clone on these boards and probably cannon fodder in the season finally.
