Er...well, I meant the old Cham, not the current one. If we're doing the current Legion, then I'm at a loss...

Ooh... I like!

Note that while Jack is the *perfect* Rokk analogue, he also embodies certain Garth traits (being the sister of the Lightning Lass analogue and having a romantic interest in the Saturn Girl analogue!)

Jin = Karate Kid?
Sun = Projectra?

Jeckie, the child of wealth and privelege like Sun, and Val is the tough guy from an entirely different sort of life.

Val and Jin are usually pretty nice but can be pretty bad-ass when need be. I, of course, mean the real Val. laugh

Unless someone has better Jin & Sun analogues...

Yeah... Val/Jeckie seem like the best fit for Jin/Sun now that you mention it.

I'm not incredibly happy with Tinya = Kate, but I couldn't come up with anyone else.

Also:

Ana-Lucia = Shrinking Violet (ass-kicking tough girl)
Libby = Triplicate Girl (well, the postboot version spent time in an institution, at least...)
Mr. Eko = ?

This will be critiqued, but consider this:

Mr. Eko = Blok

Eko was a warlord/Blok an assassin, Eko is deeply spiritual/Blok is very philosophical, both are very intimidating visually, both have trouble communicating with others but if they do they can develop strong relationships, both showed up in the second leg of roster changes (in a way if you count Wildfire to White Witch as the second one), both had deaths that pretty much sucked!

Blok wasn't quite as bad-ass as Mr. Eko, but he had so much potential to have the layering to his character explored.

Hmm... I like this one as well, Cobie! You rock at this!

There's the obvious Desmond/Dream Girl connection, but I was trying to come up with something else.

Would Mon-El/Desmond work? I really haven't seen much of Mon but I think they are similar.

Thanks Eryk! You're pretty groovy at this yourself!

TWolf - I considered Desmond as Mon too, because he joined a little later, but had connections with lost members previously. Hm...not sure if I'm sold on it, but it could fit.

Now, should Ethan be Nemesis Kid, or is more like Dynamo Boy, having never *really* become a Lostie, and betraying them so quickly?

And Anna Lucia = Shady? Both pretty proficient in combative situations, but both also having a softer side, and plus if Anna Lucia had blue skin she'd kind of look like Shady. Plus Anna Lucia died and there was always the lingering thought that Shady might one day die...

Cobie, I think Ben would be Nemesis Kid. He's got a knack for finding anyone's hot buttons.

And I was thinking Locke was sort of the current Karate Kid- philosophical and capable.

Using the current version, that would make Sun & Jin more Projectra and Timberwolf right?


Just spouting off.

What about Desmond = Starboy? He's kinda got Thom's luck, he's a fool for love and the new time-displacement thing reminds me of the Starman in JSA.

Locke = Brainy? His mind works in mysterious ways and not always completely sane ones.

Hmm... I think this calls for a photomanip!

Maybe, but Locke's pretty mystical, something I don't think Brainy would appreciate.

Locke = Element Lad, perhaps?

I'd thought about Star Boy, but couldn't come up with a case for it.

I kind of like the Mon-El idea as well, with the Time in the hatch standing in for the time in the Phantom Zone.

Wildfire might work for Desmond as well, with all of his concerns about not being a "real" man, and pining away for a somewhat unobtainable love. Plus... receiving "powers" from an electromagnetic implosion kind of parallels Wildfire's origin.

Any ideas for the Freighter people?

We should also connect the freakish number of Legion characters who have lost arms with the freakish number of Lost characters who have lost arms!

Ben = Universo

He does seem to have a hypnotic affect on people to get them to do his bidding.

Rousseau = Dawnstar/Bounty... independant female with tracking abilities

Frank (pilot guy) = Loomis, grizzled ol'fighter

Charlotte = Celeste, wily female in search of something and not afraid to get her hands dirty

Hm...Faraday could be Devlin? (bumbling but comes through in the clutch?) Kent Shakespeare? (really smart) That's tough.

I was kind of thinking the Freighties could be the Heroes of Lallor.

Faraday = Evolvo
Naomi = Beast Boy
Charlotte = Gas Girl
Miles = Life Lass (talking to inanimate objects = talking to ghosts?)
Frank = Duplicate Boy, I guess?

I like the Heroes of Lallor as the Freighter people! Frank makes out pretty well power-wise, if not personality wise...
