Wow, this one was a doozy... youth elixir vapor in an aurora!? And Dream Girl had an antidote for it?! Sounds like a substance people would want more of, not less of.. Young Shrinking Violet forgetting how to grow after being scared into shrinking is legitimately sad and a terrible situation. Also, I like Dream Girl, she's kinda neat. Fun read yet again, thank you.
Dream Girl will return. I agree that the moment with Shrinking Violet was one that always stayed with me. It's a rare poignant moment in the DC Silver Age. There are so many super substances in the 30th century. Element Lad mentions that the rarest mineral in the universe is a substance that can cure all illnesses. If that's true than he should devote all his time and super power to creating an endless supply.
It reminds me of Khan's magical blood in Star Trek Into Darkness that could bring the dead back to life. I guess they could simply keep Khan in a coma and continually harvest his blood.

That's crazy, would make a cool character motive for sure.

I was completely wrong, wasn't I?
If you weren't aware. Dream Girl would eventually become a full fledged Legion member so she couldn't really be a fraud.
@@DCSilverAgeStorytime I probably do. I'm not extremely knowledgeable about the Legion, but I know a little. I have probably just forgotten.
The story arc with the Time Trapper gets REALLY dragged out so don't expect a resolution any time soon.
@@DCSilverAgeStorytime I don't remember anything about the Time Trapper except the name.
Was this why the sales dropped during this.period?
I have no idea. I don't think there was a dip in quality. Could have been just the cyclical nature of entertainment.
