Apparition - she has political experience and can phase through any Lantern construct Kid Quantum II - the Lanterns can hold her IF they're fast enough! Rond Vidar - as a Green Lantern himself... Celese Rockfish - not a GL, but the emerald energy inhabiting her should count for something Wildfire - I'm betting his anti-matter can play havoc with the GL rings Incriminating photos of key UP officials have been leaked across the webs! (nothing criminal, but who knew Ambassador A liked wearing women's undergarments?) Pick 5 Legionnaires to clean up cyberspace!

Computo - computer skills GEAR - computer skills Brainiac - sneaking some Coluan software in there should do the trick. Chameleon - to deduce the culprit with help form the above three. Mentalla - to mind control the perpetrator into not being bad again.
It's carnage! Otto Orion is attacking Gorilla City, hunting Solivar and the others. Pick 5 Legionnaires to stop Orion's deadly game and get EarthGov to declare it a reserve under the Gorilla's ownership.

Cosmic Boy - can magnetically stop Otto's weapons, and is a good diplomat who can put the case before Earthgov Kinetix - to grab any non-magnetic weapons Chameleon - to act as the "bait", and also to address Earthgov Bouncing Boy - he beat Otto once... Triad - another diplomat type, plus she can help with "crowd control" The Legion Academy students are applying for the Legion again! Pick 5 Legionnaires to act as an objective panel and scrutinize their membership bids.

Was it Bouncing Boy who beat him? My brain cell has invisible kid climbing a cliff and avoiding some poor shooting by Orion. I recall thinking that Orion must have trained imperial storm troopers in marksmanship.
Duplicate Damsel - A consensus will eventually be reached. Wildfire - As long as the candidate doesn't have wings and a boob window, he's as close to the Academy as anyone. Bouncing Boy - With Lu, he runs the Academy and has shown plenty of good judgement. Assessed Atmos very well. Element Lad - Consistent in leader/deputy roles and therefore knows what can be expected of any candidate. Solid and dependable judge of character (when he's not the Proginator) Saturn Girl - She's a founder, and can determine if the candidate is a villainous impostor (hopefully by now). But she's really on the list so that she can bring in a candidate that no one has ever seen and who wears a mask.
It's nearly Halloween! Pick 5 Legionnaires to put on the best Halloween themed party.
Night Girl was a little snarky to Cosmic Boy when taking candidates through their paces. She was also a little less than tactful with XS.

I think I misremembered, and the Hunter that Bouncing Boy beat was the son of the first one (the one Invisible Kid beat!) Chameleon - he doesn't need a costume! Sensor - with her, you don't need decorations either! Matter-Eater Lad - Chef Tenzil will make sure you don't go hungry. Kinetix - who else loves to dress up so much? White Witch - as someone steeped in ancient lore and mysticism, she can lead the telling of horror stories The Legion has pledged to help the UP with its medical mission. Pick 6 Legionnaires to assist.

I dig this game! My medical emergency team: BRAINIAC 5: would be a great intellectual exercise for him MON-EL: as the Legion's next best medical specialist (and also for some muscle if anyone tries to steal supplies) DREAM GIRL: again for her brains, but her visions might come in handy too INFECTIOUS LASS: assuming she has her powers under control a la 5YL, who better to have for identifying weird diseases? WILDFIRE: always good to have someone along who can't physically get sick when dealing with infectious diseases and last but not least... SHRINKING VIOLET: for when you really need a gal on the field as it were to investigate wounds/infections close up! Micro Lad's led a revolt against the Imskian government and Vi is busy beating up bacteria on a medical mission, which 5 Legionnaires are gonna go liberate the little people?

Chameleon - he can get pretty small too Saturn Girl - Micro Lad may be small but I bet his mind's not! Quislet - yeah, how can Micro Lad evade an energy being? Computo - no matter how small Micro and co. get, she can send nano-machines after them Dragonmage - when all else fails, use a little magic... Someone with Element Lad's power is running loose on Weber's World! Popping planets! Send 5 Legionnaires to stop this maniac!

Element Lad - Another survivor of Trom? Experience in using same powers. Sensor - make this villain believe there are no planets to pop. Gates - Teleport the miscreant far away. Supergirl - in case raw power is required. Dawnstar - to track the evildoer from his/her/it's last disaster.
Oh not again! Krona just won't learn. There he goes peering back to the dawn of time. It only ends in disaster. Send 5 Legionnaires to stop Krona and shut down his Time Peeper Machine.

Kid Quantum II - did you say time? Then she's our best bet Brainiac 5 - hate to say it, but it's a job for him again! (gosh, we keep picking Brainy but not Lyle. No wonder they have a rivalry going on) Gear - to help Brainy with time machine specs Rond Vidar - ditto Shikari - she can see his path... before he takes it! (blatant stealing of quote) Atlantis attacks! The Atlanteans (led by a curiously familiar man in trunks with wings on his ankles) are preparing to attack the surface world. Pick 5 Legionnaires to go to Atlantis and stop them.

Lamprey - getting a boost from the Academy, because she just deserves to be seen at least once in a while.
Tellus - I couldn't look him in the eye and tell him we had an underwater adventure and didn't ask.
Sun Boy - Oh dear, he's evaporated the water around your little home, and dehydrated the attacking force.
Supergirl - It's important a woman slaps wing-foot around a bit. Take out the chief in the middle of his little Imperious Rex shout, and they're finished.
Quislet - I'm sorry. What are you attacking with? That wreckage over there? Oh, was that your city's sacred idol? So sorry...
The three Luck Lords have been having some eye problems. Pick three Legionnaires to give them their eye drops. Remember, the won't like it, so your picks will have to pretty lucky people to do the job before disaster strikes.

Eye drops? hmmm... XS - she can do the deed before the Luck Lords even know she's there Invisible Kid - he's always been pretty lucky and hopefully they won't notice he's there Calamity King - as a distraction while the other two do the job. Hey, it's not like his luck can get any worse... The Metropolis Orphanage is having a grand Halloween party for their kids, but the food delivery's late. Pick 4 Legionnaires to whip up a feast!

Alas, Matter Vomiting Lad was called away on another vital mission...
White Witch - A spell of similarity will create mountains of food from very little. Who better for Halloween?
XS - Nothing's ever going to be late for her! and a Whizz in the kitchen if something else is a problem.
Chameleon - Look, there's no food. We know Cham can split off bits of himself and survive. Listen. No one will ever know what they're eating... He can entertain the kids too, although if he's now legless it may not set the best example.
Sensor Girl - It may be cardboard and stagnant water, but it's the best looking and tasting Halloween feat the kids have ever had.
An unlikely DC crossover called Strange Sports of the Legion of New Gods, it's all down to the final event. Slalom Skiing against the Black Racer. The New God is so confident that the end is in sight, that he's allowing 3 Legionnaires to compete against him. Who do you pick?

Yikes! I didn't think we'd be feeding the kids vomit, Durlan bits or cardboard Karate Kid - he's mastered every known martial art, I think he can learn to ski in time for the race Timber Wolf - the most agile Legionnaire. Bow. Mon-El - that super-speed and super-learning has gotta be good for something. Travel UP wants to invite some of the Legionnaires over to make a holo about Earth's greatest sites. Pick four fun-loving, hard-traveling Legionnaires to star in that holo.

Heh. Sorry about that. It just popped in there. Ten it wanted to be shared Element Lad - lots of hard living on Trom. Great at making the most modern cesspit sound like an enchanting relic of a lost, spiritual race. Gates - tired of waiting for that hover bus to take you form your hotel to the airport? Not any longer! Besides, I'd love someone to tell all the tourists what actually goes on in the countries they are visiting. That's the holos taken care of... Lightning Lass - down to earth, fun and probably a great traveling companion. Make sure you invite her when Salu has booked a bossy seminar to have to be at. Sun Boy - Native, fun loving and fairly smart. The Medusa Mask has been uncovered from the ruins of an ancient mental institution. Now there are maniacal mobs causing chaos around the city. Pick 5 Legionnaires to stop the mobs and overcome the new owner of the emotion controlling mask.

That seems like a tough challenge so instead of fire power I will go for toughness and story ...
Dream girl Timber Wolf Karate Kid Shrinking Violet Triplicate Girl
I'd like to see how they solved it.
There has been an ice cream shortage and there is no more ice cream on earth. choose ten Legionnaires to go get some or make some more! enough to satisfy the hungry billions on Earth!

That's a lot of Legionnaires! XS - for the super-speed Veilmist - to quickly gather materials Chemical King - to speed up the process Element Lad - to create more materials Superboy - for the speed too Triad - many hands make lighter work Invisible Kid - he was a chemist, remember? made a couple of ice cream flavors too Leviathan - the big guy will be a good help here White Witch - when all else fails, use magic! Kinetix - for the heavy lifting A new archeological site was uncovered on Aleph! Pick 6 Legionnaires to help excavate and catalogue.

Ultra Boy and Timber Wolf
They did great work terraforming Daxam.
Kinetix of course.
Dream Girl and Sun Boy because they are super smart but never get to show off their brains.
Yera to shrink down to investigate sensitively or grow big for heavy lifting.
the Time Trapper has sped up time for the world but not people making ordinary tasks seemingly impossible to achieve in time ... the UP is in chaos.
Pick 7 members to solve the problem or help.

XS and Kid Quantum II - whenever time is an issue you need these two. Brainiac 5 and Rond Vidar - ditto Kono - she can make people phase to keep them safe Mon-El and Andromeda - for super speed clean up The UP Assembly's been turned into babies! Pick 5 Legionnaires to babysit while Brainiac 5 and the rest figure out how to undo the effects.

Tyroc to get the tots' attention. Element Lad to make them some sweets. Bouncing Boy for them to play with. XS to run around after them. And Saturn Girl to put them all to sleep.
A particularly deadly strain of lotus fruit has hit the streets of Metropolis. Pick 7 Legionnaires to let their hair down and get groovy to fit in with the counter-culture set and flush out the pushers.

Dream Girl, she is THE party girl.
I bet Lu could get groovy too!
Phantom Girl dosn't wear bell bottoms for nothing.
Star Boy had a beard before it was cool.
Timber Wolf and Ultra Boy will fit right in.
what's a party without a disco angel ... Dawnstar.
The previous 7 Legionnaires have succumbed to the wily ways of the counter culture and are brainwashed ... no memory of their old selves remain ... they just sit around being groovy!
Pick three Legionnaires to go in, unbrainwash them, flush out the pushers and clean up the mess!

Superboy - to remind them of inspiration, dedication and heroism.
Mon-El - in case Superboy to retconned, to remind them of the seeding of worlds that made the UP and the birthing of stars that allowed Brande Industries to take that dream further.
Chameleon Boy - to show the board members the blackmail evidence if they don't do as they are jolly well told.
So, the above* are off helping out RJ. With the Super Pets off on another vital mission to restore the galaxy's supply of kitty litter, it's unfortunate that Earth-C chooses that moment to shift its dimensional vibration. Now that it has merged with the Legion's Earth. Pick 5 other Legionnaires who will cope best with having been transformed into an animal to solve the crisis of Legion of Super Animals!

Chameleon Girl - she can just shapeshift out of it.
Sensor - she's already a naga/snake thingie!
Widlfire - I'm sure he'd love to get a physical body again. If he's even affected by all this.
Brainiac 5 - he was able to think while in a seed state (see the Legion 7), he can keep thinking while an animal
White Witch - she's been transformed before, and what science can't do magic can
While Superboy, Mon-El, Chameleon Boy, and my above 5 are off doing their things, a mega rift has opened to the Lost Galaxy once again! And it looks like someone is trying to revive the Omniphagos. Pick 7 Legionnaires to go get lost again and stop the Omniphagos from coming back to life.

Good shout on Chameleon Girl. There's an asterisk in my post above, to remind me that was where I typed in Chameleon Girl also being unavailable, but it didn't seem fair.
Element Lad - Just transmute the thing. Crystal Kid - In case Element Lad is squeamish. Laurel Gand - to break apart the transformed creature Lightning Lad - Effective last time Saturn Girl - mentally shut it down. Computo - taking the thingies that allowed Tharok to control the Promethean Giant. Kid Quantum - To close that pesky rift.
The Legion have realised that mocking and shouting at rejected applicants is no way to run a club. Pick three Legionnaires best suited to breaking the bad news to the candidates.
