Command Kid joins the Legion and quickly makes his fellow Legionnaires regret letting him join. Command Kid has two super-powers: the ability to generate illusions that are indistinguishable from reality (much like Princess Projectra) and super-ego. What secrets could Command Kid be hiding?

This issue is mostly Command Kid saving the day, making the other Legionnaires look incompetent, and acting like a jerk. Rinse, lather, repeat. Why the Legionnaires didn’t kick him out perplexes me. I’m sure there’s some rule in the Legion Constitution which allows for members to be kicked out for not being courteous.
