Wildfire for the explosions No Superboy/ Supergirl due to licensing issues. Timberwolf as an immortal Logan is still selling well over at Mar-Vell in the 30th Century.

Brainiac 5 to take on the Iron Man role. Brainy wears a suit of armor that nobody has ever seen before.
Gear to take on the Vision role.
Gasp! XS and Kinetix are now cousins! Meet your new Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch!

Phantom Girl Mon El Duplicate Damsel Ultra Boy

Emergency! Old JSA foe, The Sportsmaster now has Cosmic Powers! He's challenged 5 Legionnaires to win at any sporting event of their choice. Which 5 Legionnaires volunteer and at what 5 sports?

Mysa and Jeckie work together so that people don't notice the monuments have gone. Mysa's magic will also give Dawnstar a start in tracking the structures. Wildfire goes with Dawny and Salu helps infiltrate the villain's base before any attack. It turns out to be the cosmic decorator from JLI.

Element Lad, Kinetix (I freely admit my bias) and Kid Quantum II wow people with their relatively unique powers. M'Onel goes toe to toe with Superman in the obligatory superhero fight scene. Gates not only has useful powers but delivers some wonderful one-liners. Emergency! The boxing match of the decade goes awry when the competitors disappear.

Reep takes out Changeling with versatility and experience. Chemical Kid rusts Cyborg Jericho screams and passes out trying to operate in Querl's brain.

Tyroc was an awkward racial stereotype before Vibe was a bambino! Ferro thinks Steel's metal skin schtick is adorable Shadow Lass doesn't need to see Gypsy once she blankets the whole area in darkness Matter-Eater Lad can eat Vixen's tantu totem (not as dirty as it sounds) & then give her a job co-hosting Tenzil Kem's Next Top Space-Model Supergirl and Zatanna will hit it off trading embarassing stories about Clark and become BFF
Fond of beating a dead horse till it's paste, DC have decided the Legion need a dark grim movie to stay relevant. Which six Legionnaires can best be mashed into a Dark Knight-style film which completely misses the point of what they're supposed to represent? ;p

Nice JLD/ Legion X-Over Raz There is no hope. Everything is darkness in mankind's soul. Only I remain to fight against it consuming everything. And I get to dress and black and delve into self pity - Shadow Lass. I am a machine. A cold, heartless machine. A killing machine. The best killing machine there is at what killing machines do. I spurn Ayla's love in issue 1 because I'm cold and heartless - Timberwolf. The aliens are here. They've been infiltrating Earth since the 1950s. Assuming human form. Killing those who would stand in their way, raising hatreds and racial tensions. I know because I am one of them. No human can save the world. Will I? - Chameleon Boy. I wanted to be good. But they couldn't understand my plans. Couldn't see how they would benefit everyone. So I had to proceed without them. I thought they'd see. They fought back, but I escaped. Into time. Now I can change things before they ever happen. Call me Brainiac. The hunters came and destroyed my people. Through trade, then through lies and force. Starhaven is now a myth, mocked as primitive by those who write the histories. I have come to the city for my revenge on those who killed my people. My hope. - Dawnstar. This year we fight Durla. Durla have always been our enemies. Last year Braal were always our enemy. The year is always 2984. You believe what we tell you. What we place into your mind. You are under our control. Cattle of the Titans in your midst. - Saturn Girl Emergency - Ares, the God of War has pushed Earth to the brink of all out conflict - Pick 5 Legionnaires to pacify the planet and explain to Ares the futility of conflict.

Infectious Lass will give everyone a mild cold. People will feel too achy and coughing to fight
Princess Projectra will provide those still determined to fight with the illusion of their own death
Supergirl will confiscate all weapons at superspeed
Sister Andromeda to try to persuade Ares to end the conflicts
Kid Quantum II to put Ares in stasis in case Sister Andromeda is unsucessful
Emergency - Mr. Mxyzptlk thought it would be fun to replace the Avengers in "Avengers: Age of Ultron" with 6 Legionnaires. Which 6 Legionnaires were at the Clubhouse when Myxie made the switch? (unfortunately there was only one of the Super Strong Legionnaire in the Clubhouse at the time)
