Bouncing Boy is an easy target for jokes. An overweight superhero is uncommon, and elastic characters often have a humorous element to them (i.e. Plastic Man). Heck, we make the occasional Chuck Taine crack ourselves here at the Legion of Super-Bloggers. However, when you take time to examine his character you'll find he's one of the most solid guys on the team.
Bouncing Boy is brave, tenacious, kind, and shows real gung-ho spirit! He's been a member of the Legion multiple times, he's supervised the Legion Academy, been a member of the Subs, and married one of the sexiest Legionnaires! Chuck and Luornu Durgo (Duo Damsel) were the very first married couple from the Legion. Duo Damsel... with the power to split into two women. Yeah, that's right. Way to go, Chuck!
Chuck's commitment and winning personality exude sexy and Duo Damsel is a lucky girl to have landed this Bouncing Boy!
