Who is it? LOBO (ha! just kidding, most likely Wolverine on the first clue)

Best character after Vril Dox in LEGION? LOBO

IT’s your favorite Outsider, Grace, of course!

Cover challenge: Right Ear is showing

Cover game: Since floating heads don’t count, I’ll say Captain America #118, Falcon’s second appearance. http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=23036&zoom=4 There are some later issues, during the Nomad storyline, where it’s hard to say whether the “floating heads” rule applies or not.

Who is it? I’m not sure, but I’ll say Puck, on #2

Cover challenge: all three covers feature characters who’ve suffered brain damage?

Guy Gardner on the JLI cover, Hercules on the Avengers cover, and, um, er, Wonder Woman on the JLA cover (ever read the John Byrne issues?

There are characters in L.E.G.I.O.N. other than (quite possibly the best character in the DCU) Dox?

Ok, ok..

The straightlaced hero fan in me is partial to either Captain Comet or Lar Gand.

Cover challenge: Ice, Wonder Woman and Hercules are all connected to gods. (I think Ice is at least)

I love L.E.G.I.O.N, admittedly because Vril Dox was such a arrogant piece of work, but what really kept me going with the series at a point when I was losing interest was Tinya Wazzo,Phase being added to the ranks. Then later on one of my all-time favourite DC characters joined the mix in Captain Comet. So I’d go with those two

Here’s one: Avengers (3rd series) #64, one of the Geoff Johns run.

Favorite L.E.G.I.O.N. character? It’s a tough choice between the Durlan and Capt. Comet…

Didn’t get Grace until #5. The first three clues had my tricked into thinking Wolverine.

I’m wracking my brain to come up with an answer for the cover game, but I’ve got nothing. Although I give my sympathy to anyone else whose read Justice League America 112.

Well, I actually got the challenge this time, but I didn’t figure out it was Grace until #5…

It’s been awhile since I read L.E.G.I.O.N., but I remember liking most of the cast, especially Garv, Strata, and Stealth.

Cover theme game: this one might be too easily applied to too may covers, but how about “they all feature someone re-using another character’s name?”

JLA 112 has the second Ice
JLA 45 has a non-Hal Green Lantern
Avengers 39 features the villains Piledriver and Hamerhead, but not the famous Piledriver or Hammerhead

Wow, I guessed Puck at the second clue. Don’t usually get the Who Is It?

Vril Dox takes all top three positions in Best L.E.G.I.O.N. character. Can we get a L.E.G.I.O.N. Showcase book yet?

As for the Falcon cover: http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=209997&zoom=2
Captain America & the Falcon #7.

On retrospect, Puck worked at a normal bar. So Andrew is probably right that it’s Grace.

For the Cover Game, I’ll go with Defenders #62, when Falcon was a “Defender for a Day.”

Stealth was my favorite character in L.E.G.I.O.N. that was not Dox.

I really like Comet in most instances, but he was written rather white-bread in this series.

All the covers feature a character who’s conencted to mythological Gods.

Favorite L.E.G.I.O.N. character: Garryn Bek. Above Dox himself, if you ask me.

There won’t be a L.E.G.I.O.N. showcase book. Real shame, that.

Garryn Bek, but there were lots of good characters in LEGION, including the evil baby. For some reason, though, the stories told with those characters rarely engaged me much.

Who Is It? Hulk. I don’t know the character well, but just recently someone was telling me about a storyline where Gray Hulk is hired as a bar bouncer.

Captain America (and the Falcon) #158. Although Cap is technically on this cover, it shouldn’t count as it’s a spectral image.

I’ve got another spectral image cover ready, if that one’s not good enough for some of you:
Captain America (and the Falcon) #177.

Proof: The Falcon fights Alone!
Captain America is No More!

My entry for the Cover Game:

Black Panther #17

“Urban Jungle Action!”

Grey Hulk wasn’t a bar bouncer..he was a mob enforcer.

I say Wolverine as he’d bounce people at his bar in Mandripoor, and Jessica Drew was a customer/drunk there.

yeah, but his role as a mob enforcer was basically to be muscle – a bouncer, if you will – at a casino, not a bar.

But the answer is still Grace. Let’s keep guessing anyway…

Cover theme: All three feature a princess or prince (Wonder Woman, Ice, and Hercules)

According to Origin, though, Wolverine was raised by his birth parents until he ran away with Rose.

Eye liked Bek, Phase, and the Durlan, I really liked Stealth, and I liked the Eye. For the first fifty issues or so it was an awesome book, one of my favorites at the time. Vril Dox used to remind me of the early John Constantine with all his heartless (and effective) manipulation.

It had maybe the most interesting group of female characters in any super team, X-folks included.
The issue where Stealth gave birth was probably my high point. And human females think they have it tough…

Another Falcon cover, by Frank Miller no less:

fourthworlder: I’ll never forget the “Next Issue” box for that one: “Giffen Goes Gynecologically Gaga!”

A little love for the Falcon:

Who is it: Strong Guy?

Falcon sans Cap covers:

Iron Man (vol. 3) # 84

who is it? X-23

She worked at a bar for mutants and mutant wannabes in at least one X-Book

Correct, Rob M!
