No. It's one of the worst serials ever made. (And watch it a chapter a week, like you're s'posed to, damn it.)

I got the fly reference, just didn't understand the Jimmy Olsen reference. He accidentally drank a serum that turned him into Elastic Lad, so the Legion made him an honorary member (more for his help of Superman than for his powers). I don't believe that any correlation was ever made between Jimmy's serum and the Elongated Man's gingold. On the other hand, Lana Lang was Insect Queen, and I think she was an honorary Legion member, too. I think.
