Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is Mon-El's real name?

Answer: Lar Gand

Mon-El made his debut in 'Superboy' #89 (1961). Under the circumstances when they met, Superboy believed him to be a lost brother. Because they met on "Mon"day, Superboy (Kal-El) gave him the name Mon-El. It stuck, even after Lar's temporary amnesia wore off.

2. What planet is Mon-El from?

Answer: Daxam

Daxam is a planet where some early Kryptonian space explorers settled and civilized. The birthing matrixes that they took with them had been altered so that newborns were no longer vulnerable to kryptonite, but instead to lead.

3. When Superboy accidentally exposes Mon-El to lead, he is poisoned. The poisoning doesn't go away when the lead is removed from his vicinity. What does Superboy do next?

Answer: Puts Mon-El in the Phantom Zone until a cure can be found

Mon-El ends up spending 1000 years in the Phantom Zone.

Answer: Marvel Lad

Under the guise of Marvel Lad, he tells the Legion his real name is Lemon. Brainiac 5 realizes that Lemon is an anagram of Mon-El, but doesn't give things away.

5. During his Legion audition, Mon-El created a whole new element. He called it Element 162. Shortly thereafter Brainiac 5 used Element 162 to create what?

Answer: Legion flight rings

Prior to their Legion flight rings, Legionnaires were issued bulky flight belts. Prior to that they wore backpack size jet packs.

6. What fellow Legionnaire did Mon-El have a long term romantic relationships with?

Answer: Shadow Lass

Shadow Lass had a tiny crush on Brainiac 5 when she first joined, but began having feelings for Mon-El during an adventure they shared in the past fighting Mordru.

Answer: Valor

In this post 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' chronology, Superman was never Superboy. So in this continuity, Valor becomes the inspiration upon which the Legion was founded. Lar had his own self titled comic, 'Valor', that expanded on his exploits in the 20th century.

8. In the post Zero Hour/Reboot continuity, Mon-El again is given a new hero identity that he operates under. What is it?

Answer: M'Onel

In this continuity, he had originally been the hero known as Valor in the 20th century. He assisted with the seeding of populations on numerous planets and then disappeared. He spent a 1000 years in the "stasis zone" until freed by the Legion. During his time away, he had achieved a god like status among many of the civilizations he helped begin. Wishing for anonymity, he chose the Martian name M'Onel, which means "he who wanders".

He operated as a "detached" member of this incarnation of the Legion.

Answer: The Justice League of America

Mon-El was extended membership in the Justice League of America and served briefly. Eventually he is severely poisoned by lead (again), and he is placed in the Phantom Zone until he is rescued by the Legion of Super Heroes 1000 years later.

Answer: He is selected to be a Green Lantern

Mon-El is selected to be a Green Lantern and is given a power ring. The combined power of the ring, along with his natural Daxamite super powers made him unquestionably one of the mightiest characters in Legion history, if not DC history!
