5. Color Kid
What was my rule last time? ONE Legion of Superheroes character per list. And this time, our representative is Color Kid from the Legion of Substitute Heroes.
Color Kid’s incredible power is that… he can change the color of any object. That’s about it. Now, admittedly, he’s a member of the Legion Subs, so the whole point of this character was that his power was SUPPOSED to be stupid, but that doesn’t make it less so.
And while other subs like Polar Boy got super cool reinventions in later Legion stories, Ulu Vakk, aka Color Kid, did not. Even Geoff Johns’s “Superman and the Legion of Superheroes”, which had a whole issue devoted to showing the Subs kicking all kinds of butt, has Color Kid get blinded and sidelined right out of the gate. Poor guy. You know you suck when Chlorophyll Kid gets a badass moment and you don’t.
But whatever, Color Kid, I like you. And out of all the Legionnaires I could have put on this list, I chose you. That’s gotta count for something, right?
