LEGION OF SUPER HEROES

OTHER LEGIONNAIRES

During the show's development, concept sketches of XS were seen online along with sketches of other Legionnaires by various artists.[citation needed] She appears in the final two episodes "Dark Victory" parts 1 and 2 as a background character. Dawnstar and Invisible Kid also appeared in these final two episodes along with many other rarely seen Legion members, however none of the new members shown in these episodes did anything to the plot of the story itself.

In Season One, some Legionnaires were mentioned or shown as images before making an actual appearance. Fourteen members were shown during the season as already active (Blok, Bouncing Boy, Brainiac 5, Colossal Boy, Cosmic Boy, Dream Girl, Element Lad, Lightning Lad, Phantom Girl, Saturn Girl, Shrinking Violet, Sun Boy, Triplicate Girl, and Tyroc), with five more being added during that time (Superman, Timber Wolf, Matter-Eater Lad, Star Boy, and Ferro Lad).

The Season One opening credits sequences included a glimpse of the Mission Monitor Board signs for many Legionnaires as well as shots of flying Legionnaires who would be seen in later episodes (though not all of those with Mission Monitor Board symbols appeared). At least four members of the Legion as seen in the comics appeared in some way on the show but had not joined by the end of the first season (Ultra Boy, Lightning Lass, Wildfire, and Polar Boy).

In Season Two, Karate Kid appeared in the opening credits with the other Legionnaires, though he did not appear until the fifth episode. Nemesis Kid joined this same episode. Similar to Karate Kid, Sun Boy appears in the Season Two opening titles and has made semi-regular appearances, but has yet to have a speaking line or have someone else refer to him by name. Ayla Ranzz, sister of Lightning Lad, finally made an appearance but she is currently a child without apparent super powers (and not the Light Lass of the comic books).
