Here are a few past relationships I wouldn't mind seeing a follow up story on, anybody else got some they would like to see.
Blok : League of Super-Assasins / Darkman
Brainiac 5 : Pulsar Stargrave / Omega
Karate Kid : Iris Jacobs / Diamondeth
Mon-El : Eltro Gand's surviving family members.
Timber Wolf : Tyr / Dr.Londo
Wildfire : Zera Vultan / Molecule Master
I tried to rip their soul out.I tried to make them forget Superman. But they won't.

I agree with all of these, especially the Blok / Super-Assasins and Brainiac 5/Omega

Originally posted by Lone Wolf Legionnaire: Blok : League of Super-Assasins / Darkman I even wrote fanfic about that. The appearance of the Super-Assassins in Lo3W fighting alongside Tharok was just mind-bogglingly bad writing, IMO, considering how much they must hate that guy for the messed-up childhoods... Karate Kid : Iris Jacobs / Diamondeth She'd be an interesting 21st century character to see more of, perhaps joining the Titans, Outsiders, etc. Timber Wolf : Tyr / Dr.Lando His role in the cartoon, of all things, really made me want to see more of Dr. Londo! Did he do any other research, other than on his son? Did he clone Brin? Did he have a hawt research assistant who also was experimented upon and is now has animalist powers derived from some sort of alien bat-like creature that makes her kind of vampire-y, the same way Brin is kinda werewolf-y? Inquiring minds want to know! Ooh, I was just remembering that, while it wasn't Omega by any means, Shooter introduced the idea of malicious fragments of Brainiac 5's personality escaping from him and taking on a corporeal existence. (A plotline that was abandoned, obviously.) It might be interesting to revisit that sort of notion, as various Legionnaires (Imra, Jeckie, Tellus and Brainy, particularly) could manifest malicious entities from their subconscious minds.

I really think the Super-Assassins are an awesome team of villains even without the Blok connection (dumb name though), but I'm surprised the natural connection with Blok has never been utilised for stories. Seems like stories with those guys would pretty much write themselves - and I read Set's, which was a really good example of all of the above.
I never read any of the actual Karate Kid series, but I like the idea of Diamondeth enough to have incorporated her into my fanfic as well...it's quite interesting to me that there is a woman living in our time who was in love with Val and knew a completely different side to him than a lot of the Legion, but who is a complete stranger to everyone else IN the Legion...
I would definitely like to see some follow-up on Dr Londo's experiments that began with Brin. I also wouldn't mind seeing Karth Arn make a return...
What else...I think the Gil'Dishpan/Hykraian connection is interesting and wouldn't mind seeing more of their shared history.
I also wouldn't mind a story focusing on Timber Wolf and Sensor Girl; they were both the closest on the team to Karate Kid, and around about the time of Magic Wars she was leader and he was deputy leader. But we've never really seen anything of what their relationship is like with one another.
Same with Phantom Girl and Mon-El, especially now that he's broken up with Shady. There was always that fourway friendship, but it's always been very gender-divided.
In general I would like to see more of the team relationships outside of the cliques we're used to.

Brin and Marella Tao: even if they're just good friends, does he give her news tips about the Legion?
This one never happened but... R.J. Brande and Lester Spiffany: R.J. has an interest in young people and heroism/leadership, Lester needs guidance, and R.J. and Lester's family must cross paths at events for the wealthy.
Holy Cats of Egypt!

Karate Kid : Iris Jacobs / Diamondeth
I have an idea for a new Karate Kid series
Time: 21st century earth, Val Armorr Jr. lives with his mother Iris Jacobs, and his teacher from the 31st century Sensi, he has diamond hard skin and is learning martial arts from his fathers mentor, other supporting cast members include the former villian known as Pulsar.

I would like to see a resolution type story regarding what ever happened between Element Lad and Shvaughn Erin ... their relationship just sort of fizzled out. Oh hey, maybe she could be a bad guy now! Or be in cahoots with super-villians possibly. That would be an interesting twist to say the least.

Well, she's already been a gay guy, so a bad guy woudn't be too far fetched.

I don't see how we can assume that... Element Lad wasn't even shown in this LSH till the Espionage Squad in Smallville story. He just debuted in LSH #3 last month with nothing indicating anything about the status of his relationship with Shvaughn. It could well be that the relationship has fizzled, but we haven't been told about it yet, if so.

I'd like to see something about the Shadow Lass/Shadow Kid relationship.
Also, Wildfire/Nightwind/Lamprey.
Has Vi forgiven Duplicate Boy?
I'd like to see something about the two Invisible Kids, whether Lyle stays dead or not (that Dream Dimension story did sort of hint at something...)
Nura and Imra as friends.
Sun Boy and Lightning Lad used to be best friends. I'd like to see that friendship resurface.
What about past relationships from other versions of the Legion? You might consider the Saturn Girl/Cosmic Boy 'action' a reflection of events on Earth 247, and that Camelot-like Elseworlds. Are there relationships that existed on Earth Prime or Earth 247 or 5YL Earth that you'd like to see inspiring interactions among the current Legionnaires?

Also Brin and Dawnstar working together to track down some random villian, and becoming good friends in the process.

What ever happened to the Wanderers in this version of the Legion? What did Duplicate Boy do once Violet regained her freedom? Did Yera disguised as Vi break it off between them and if so, why couldn't the yutz see that something was wrong with his girl? No wonder Salu was pissed at him afterwards.

Yera didn't know who Duplicate Boy was. She started to ask Gim who he was when he jumped Gim in the Himalayas. Seems like she didn't get a very good briefing on Vi's life, yet she knew all the Legion access codes and such.

[snip] future king: ... What did Duplicate Boy do once Violet regained her freedom?... There was a backup story once in which we saw Duplicate Boy trying to get over the fact that he'd left the real Vi "out there" without telling anyone that she wasn't still with the Legion. Levitz really did underscore that the guy was kind of an idjit, but that he felt bad later about having abandoned Vi to what could have been an even worse fate.
Some hero.
jimgallagher:
...Seems like she didn't get a very good briefing on Vi's life, yet she knew all the Legion access codes and such... Oh, man. This is one of my favorite story arcs, but that point has nagged at me since half past forever. I've never been able to think up a good reason for it. My Overthinker-Fu keeps failing me!
Speaking of the whole Gim/Yera thing, I personally think that things would have been at least as awkward between Cham and Yera in the aftermath of Violet's return as they were between Salu and Yera. I mean, she deceived somebody who's one of his closest friends. Plus, the dude spends his whole life trying to prove to the rest of the galaxy that his people aren't horrible amoral monsters, and Yera doesn't exactly help his case. I may have to write that scene myself someday, since I guess nobody in canon is gonna' get around to it.
