Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes How Many Would Want Laurel Kent and Laurel Gand as Members of the Legion?

I know I would

So would love a Legion House of EL
Populated by Superboy, Supergirl, Mon-EL, Laurel Kent, Laurel Gand/Andromeda, Superboy II (Connor)& Kent Shakespeare. (Legion House of EL - a group within the Main Legion)

I know I know what you're thinking duplication of powers clause and all that...but remember they had changed Laurel (Gand)'s power set

I have always loved Laurel Kent

I would want just Laurel Kent, not Andromeda, but only with the power of invulnerability. It made for a more believable character. Just exactly as she was when she was first introduced.

Love Laurel Kent, aka 'Invulnerable Lass.' I don't even mind if she isn't really sure if she's descended from Clark, Conner, Chris or some other Kent.

Negative interest in Laurel Gand. She's a cheap Supergirl replacement and we've already got a cheap Supergirl.

Ba-dum-bum.

As for the 'House of El,' I'd actually be more interested in the original conception of Sensor Girl, as a super-senses-only version of Supergirl. There are already several Legionnaires who have only one Krypto-power, such as Night Girl (only super-strength) or XS (only super-speed), after all.

Having Projectra return to her classic identity, and a new 'Sensor Girl' show up, turning out to not be an amnesiac powered-down Supergirl, but a descendent of the 'House of El' could be neat.

Using Laurel Kent as a precedent;
Invulnerability - Laurel Kent
Super-Strength - ?
Super-Speed - ?
Flight - ? (certainly not a power that would qualify one for Legion membership, but the House of El might have their own team, and he/she might be a good enough aerial acrobat to be, like Karate Kid, worthy of joining a team of people who can use gadgets to fly in any event)
Super-Senses - Sensor Girl
Heat Vision - ?
and, from Conner;
Telekinesis - ?

There's other characters I'd prefer to see, frankly. But if Levitz and co. have a great story for them, sure.

Would take Laurel Gand in a second especially if we cannot have Kara as a member again, not the same thing I know but a good start. However I would want TMK Laurel Gand more than Reboot Andromeda.

Never understood the love Laurel Kent gets in some quarters. She always seemed to me to be a fairly pointless character only introduced for that slightly creepy Superboy story where they had him inadvertantly being attracted to his own ancestor. Thankfully she was then largely ignored for large periods of time.

I was really quite glad when she was revealed as a Manhunter.

well to be sure it was several generations removed so according to the law ...it would have been ok....werid (societies feelings well current 20/21st century) but ok.

Back to Laurel Gand...actually She had her own personality that was different from any version of Kara's so she could still be a member (i'm so hoping Paul incorporates that Blonde daxamite from the last Mon-EL inthe 21st century book into the legion as Andromeda...

What about 31st Century descendants of Karen Starr AKA Power Girl Kara Zor-L?

Laurel Gand, absolutely. Laurel Kent I'm a bit cooler toward.

always preferred Laurel Gand over that goody two shoes super chick.

Laurel Kent. not so sure, maybe would be a cool villain or academy member. her haircut's awesome. and her uniform, she's not shy.

I love the Poncho!

which one! I assume Kent's sexy one, but Gand had a poncho too!! in 'Legion on the Run'

ponchos galore

yea the Kent one

Yeah, I'd love to see Andromeda, Supergirl, and Kent Shakesphere, too--plus Conner Kent as a deliberate Superboy successor in the current Legion (with Legion beltbuckle added to the traditional costume, of course--or maybe the Superboy's Legion variation).

That is an awesome idea. Would the father be a normal person or a fellow JSA member?

Power Girl is Kryptonian again? I lost track.

That's Kal, Kara, 'Karen', Conner and possibly a few others like 'Chris.'

Laurel Gand - absolutely!

Laurel Kent - er, she works better as an occasional supporting player. Descendant of Superman is too much of a headache and she never screamed Legion material to me.

As long as she is wearing her "Flying Buttress" outfit, Laurel Gand gets my vote.

She was re-established as from Earth-2 in Infinite Crisis, but it could have changed when I wasn't paying attention.

As for descendents of Conner, I think it would be cool if some of them turned out to be villains. We know that the Knights (Starman) have villainous descendents, maybe they could be part of the next version of the Justice League of Earth.

Have absolutely no interest in Laurel Kent or any more descendants of 21st century DCU characters than the ones we've already got - Querl, Tasmia and Jenni (any others I'm missing?).

Love Laurel Gand though - especially in her orange/black starfield costume - so would be thrilled to see her back in the books.

I'd love to see Supergirl, Andromeda, and Thunder all together in action!

Yeah.

Legacy characters are sort of a mixed blessing, but...

Laurel Kent would be great, and they could throw Laurel Gand in as well.

Laurel Kent is beautiful.

But I still can't stand her, except in Bill's cartoon of her, Kent Shakespeare and Superboy.


If I read the last of the Krypton Wars correctly, there are about 7,000 Kryptonians hiding on Earth now, so if they stay, their might be hundreds of thousands or millions of Kryptonian type powersets in the 31st century.
That would be some Legacy!

I'd certainly like Laurel Gand/the Daxamite girl in the Legion AND Kent Shakespeare.
I was never sure what his powers were but I loved him in TMK's stories.
