Let’s wrap up our fashion show with a look at what the well-dressed 30th Century teenages is wearing.
Our first contestant is Tasmia “Shadow Lass” Mallor. This Talokian Tease was the first Legionnaire to wear beachwear into combat. let’s have a looksee, shall we?
Next up is that regal lady, Princess Projectra.

That’s it for the fashion critiques for a while folks. Have a great weekend.

Sorry Lana honey, it looks like he only has eyes for Thom.
Jan 23, 2006 in Bondage, Scrooge McDuck, What Were They Thinking
Ever wonder what Scrooge McDuck did in his free time?
Well, so did an aptly named underling:
Well, that was more than I needed to know, that’s for sure…
Jan 23, 2006 in Religion, What Were They Thinking
This time I paid a visit to the nice folks at “Suspension of Disbelief”. The topic was the recent issue of Action Comics featuring Superman going to someone’s house for Friday Night Shabbos dinner.
Jan 20, 2006 in Legion of Super Heroes, LoSH Fashion Show!, What Were They Thinking
Any Legion fan knows that Krate Kid was a master of every Martial Art in the galaxy, able to hold his own with Superboy.
But do they know what he did to pay the bills?
Val Armor – Karate Pimp!
Jan 19, 2006 in Legion of Super Heroes, Sexuality, What Were They Thinking
Did the writer and editor of Adventure Comics # 376 just not know what “confirmed bachelor†was a euphemism for?
