The Legionnaires featured were Mon-El, Lightning Lad, Brainiac 5, Cosmic Boy, Chameleon Boy, and Saturn Girl. All were illustrated by Dave Cockrum, taken from his Lore of The Legion feature in Superboy/Legion #202.
I came across most of these at some nostalgia store or some place in the late Seventies. I used them for pens and pencils for years until they cracked or broke during some of my moves. I think I still have the Aquaman one somewhere....
Who else would LOVE to see an actual Legion Toon Tumbler?
Addendum:
Seems like these pics were originally from Computonet dom com! I found them by doing an image search, but as LSH fan Michael noted below, you can find the entire collection here at Sidne Ward's Legion page. Nice job, Saturn Girl~!
And for completists' sake, here are the four Reserve and Honorary Legionnaires, too...!
*....Ma and Pa Kent!?!?!
Ok, sure, we don't have this chain in Canada (though I did buy some Slurpee stained comics at a 7-Eleven when I lived summers in Texas), but how come I've never heard of these ever?!
ReplyDeleteYou must have had a very Oliver Twist-like childhood, my friend.
DeleteExcept for the Jimmy and Lana cups, all of the Legionnaire cups plus the checklist were originally from Sidne Ward's page at http://www.computonet.com/saturngirl/lsh/lshcup.html, where she's had the page since 1997. It would be nice if you could credit her.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up. I have added her to the post.
DeleteWhat a blast from the past. I had several of these when they came out. I wish I still had them but it'd be unlikely they'd have survived the time unless well preserved which I was not known for. Thanks for sharing.
