Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes The Good Legionnaires Must Return!

Now that the series seems to be directed well.
And that the group is down in active members....
Is not a time of which the good legionaries return?

Saturn Girl
Lightning Lad
Duplicate Girl
Bouncing Boy
Matter Eater Lad
Karate Kid (from the subplot in Legion 6)
Sensor Girl
Black Witch
Blok
Night Girl
XS


And don't forget the characters who even have not appeared in this continuity.
I like to see new versions of Laurel Gand, Veilmist, Reflecto (the real one),Celeste, Impulse (Kent Shakespear) Kid Quantum (Jazmin) or Quantum Queen (the wanderer), Gear, Shikari...
Spider Girl with red hair...and in the Legion.
And to revive Kinetix, after everything something of her must stay inside Black Witch..

Yes, yes, yes! Especially when Mysa said Zoe "would never know peace" - she doesn't deserve that!

Let's not forget the likes of Nightwind, Lamprey, Power Boy, Crystal Kid and Gravity Kid...

To be fair, though, there are a large number of active Legionnaires now, and I'd like to get to know them more before new members are added. Unless those new members are Kid Quantum II, Kinetix, XS, Nightwind and Laurel Gand...

It sure would be nice to touch base with XS. Has Levitz just been ignoring her, or are there conflicting plans for her in Flash?
I don't know if Kinetix can be extracted from Mysa without freeing Mordru, but there's your story. It would be a shame, however, to lose the Black Witch before we have really gotten to know her.
Dragonmage and James Cullen are favs of mine. I suppose its possible that Dragonmage might still reside within Mordru and Mysa, but I doubt that Levitz is likely to explore that option (except maybe as a Mordru-convert villain??). He might give a back-story for a brief Legion career and death (?) of Kid Quantum I. If nothing else, this would advance the possibility of Jazmin showing up.
It would be great to see either this dimention's Gear or Danielle Foccart (as Computo) join the Legion or the Academy. I assume Danielle is still around somewhere...
I love Shikari and I guess she has the ability to wander back from Limbo, but I don't think she's a fit for this Legion.
Perhaps Brainy could revisit his Supergirl android (a la Red Tornado) it could hang out at HQ.
A visit from Calorie Queen would be cool, maybe with Phantom Lad and Chameleon Kid as her backup dancers!

I suspect a little of both. I think that Geoff had some vague tenuous plans for XS in Flashpoint, and then dropped it, but didn't go out of his way to tell Paul, who wasn't strongly motivated to add yet another Legionnaire to his already-full plate anyway (especially considering how little he used the other new Legionnaires that Johns added, Night Girl, Chameleon Girl and Gates).

One of those 'I thought *you* were writing her?' 'No, I left her for you!' situations.

There's also the possibility of this universe having its own Zoe, and her being the key to getting the other Zoe out of Mordru.

Dragonmage has the opposite problem. This continuity's version of him appears to be dead, and we never even met him!

Jazmin, Gear and Computo would be three of my favorites to see back / part of this continuity.

Jazmin's powers would need some clarification / tweaking, 'though. She seemed a little ill-defined, and I feel like it led to her just 'spamming' the same trick (stasis fields) over and over.

As for the others on the list, Mysa was always, IMO, awkwardly written, due to the nature of her powers. 'Magic' is too often shorthhand for 'won't be able to do today, what she did yesterday, because it will mess with the plot.'

And Blok. Meh. Not the *last* League of Super-Assassin's member I would have wanted to turn coat and become a Legionnaire, but darn close. Lazon, Titania, Silver Slasher and Neutrax all seem like more interesting characters, and would fill roles on the Legion that Blok does not. (The Legion has never been hurting for more strong, tough guys, after all.)

Blok's only redeeming feature is that he's a better Legionnaire than psycho Mist Master would have been.

I want everyone to return,even the bad Legionnaires!

What he said!

Except Earth Man

And Atmos. And Firefist. And the 3boot version of Ultra Boy. Oh, wait, they can return only if they get their asses royally whupped.

I prefer Jazmin being written as someone who can slow down and speed up time, period. Otherwise she gets too confusing.

That is also the issue I had with Blok. I kept thinking, why not let Nightwind in instead? We already HAVE Mon-El, Ultra Boy AND Timber Wolf...

More power variety please! I liked Blok's personality, though. Wish they'd given him earth-manipulating powers instead.

There are lots of old members who if love to see either return or be reimagined for this boot- Computo, Kid Quantum (does anyone know of James is likely to be in the secret origins series?), Thunder, Gear, Sensor without the boob hole costume, the heroes of Lallor etc. Of course, a Tamaran, Amazonian, several aliens and of course a gorilla! Well I could dream

I'd love to see a version of James inserted in Secret Origins, but can only guess that it's extremely unlikely!

I demand, I say I demand the return of False Pretense Lad!

Of the ones mentioned, I'd like Kinetix, XS, and Monstress. I would not mind seeing Andromeda or Kid Quantum. Of the 5YL group, Veilmist sounds intriguing.

With Tellus and Gates in Lost, there are spots open for a telekinetic and a teleporter...



Heck, why does there need to be only one of each, anyway!
