how about Wolf Boy for Brin?

that was the nick-name of a coworker of mine a while back (course, his last name was Wolf).

I'd like to see Brin, Kent and Mysa back. The latter two have barely been seen since ZH - and Kent's up there with Condo in lack of screen time.

That's three votes for Condo!

Kent needs a new name though cause "Impulse" is not a "cool" name in the new Legion-order.

How bout Impulse Boy?

And for Brin....um....Feral Lad?

And for Mysa....Mystic Miss?

As far as Adventure era Legionnaires:

Chemical King (renamed as Kid Catalyst); Mon-EL (perhaps as Marvel Lad); Ferro Lad (as...well, Ferro Lad ); & Timber Wolf (Lupine Lad). Not much I would change about any of their charactizations except I would soften Condo's feelings of worthlessness. With the proper depiction and application of his powers, he would be a real dynamo on the team.

Bouncing Boy (as Richochet Kid) and Matter Eater Lad (as Consumption Kid maybe) should also be around. I'd also like to see Rond Vidar (Psi Kid) as a Legionnaire with powers of hypnosis like his father.

Since there really is no need for the Subs this time, Polar Boy, Fire Lad, Chlorophyll Kid, Night Girl, Stone Boy, Color Kid, and Quill Kid (Porcupine Pete) should come back as well.

And don't forget the Heroes of Lallor & the Wanderers!

Oops, forgot about Block Boy (Blok); Quislet & Tellus (the no gender rule applies here as well); and Mysa (as Mystic Girl or Magic Lass.

And yes, I like Plasma Lad for Wildfire

Well, Wildfire has had a habit of having temp names (Erg-1 twice, NRG) so if he had to have an initial "boy/lad" name, maybe "Plasma Lad" (as long as he doesn't get called "Plas") or "Energy Lad" or "Combustion Kid" or "Fusion Boy"? (not too exciting, but nothing compares to "Wildfire" )

Need I add in my vote to bring back Zoe? One of the very nicely original additions to the ongoing Legion mythos that is definitely lost in this version, IMNSHO.

I'd like to see XS brought back. Her appearance in Impulse's book was what got me to check out the Legion books (and I've been a fan ever since).

I've been a fan of speedsters ever since I started reading comics. But, I grew to like XS for more than her powers. I loved how nice and friendly she always was (those seemed like traits she inherited from her grandpa).

The only thing I didn't like was when the writers kept focussing on all her various crushes within the team.

I whole-heartedly agree with anyone who wants to bring back Kinetix, XS and Gates. I really think their personalities would add a lot to the team.

Of course, I also agree with those who want the rest of the Adventure cast to be reintro'd. The more the merrier, I say!

I've already campaigned at length over this but its got to be Polar Boy.

He basically was an adventure era legionnaire and he's been around a lot longer than many of the characters currently on the team.

Give the plucky little teen a chance, Brek for legionnaire!

*considers*

XS! Even if she's not part of the team, she's *gotta* be around that world somewhere.

She could try out as Kid Flash (or, um, Lightning Lass, even, which I'm sure would go well. Just not something like Flash Lass, because that makes me giggle too hard, and also suggests that she should have amazing powers of, er, *distraction*... which I'd imagine'd be a shortcoming in a speedster, who ought to be more aerodynamic in any case).

Also, Supergirl. Come on, DCU, you don't know what to do with her, let us have her!

We could time share, maybe?

She's coming back. It's just that, to harken back to an even older era, she's going to be from Hykraius this time around.

...You're evil. I like that. ;P

WILDFIRE. While I've been crying for T-Wolf I gotta say Wildfire is an essential part of the Legion IMO and one of my faves. I haven't begged for Drake yet because I feel it's only a matter of time.

Wildfire, T-Wolf, Blok, Mon-El are guys I really do miss.

How i see that the book is call the LEGION so i would bring ALL the members back. So it could realy be a legion of super-heroes. I know it could be some will have the same powers but all you have to do dont send this members on the same mission. If i have to narrow my choices i would go with the non humanoid one .. it a big galaxie outside and not everybody is human.

i'd love Gates (Jump Bug is a cool name!), Chemical King, or Nemesis Kid to appear. they would be surprising choices. we know Wildfire, Timber Wolf, and Dawnstar are inevitable from WnK's comments.
How about a re-imagined Tyroc? Decibel Dude(!) or a totally new, non-humanoid creation would be welcome as well.

Yeah, its always a shame when a reboot leaves characters behind.



A character I've always wanted to see more of myself.

Look at Page 29 of #1. The girl holding whatever that is supposed to be in the ziplock bag.

Tell me that doesn't look like Polar Girl to you?

I too vote for Timber Wolf, but as Lone Wolf. Remember his silver age version where he thought he was a miner clone? How about this time he actually is a clone, or a "help-clone" that the Legion helps gain personal sovereignty?

Portfolio Boy, great idea! I like the name LoneWolf also. Didn't care for the clone origin but you know without the androids it would make sense in this new Legion.

Who else but a "help-clone" would be more of a rebel and have an attitude. Also think he should be the rebel within the Legion thinking they are all cornballs thus he picks the name Lone Wolf...after he almost breaks Sun Boy's neck for suggesting Wolf Boy.

OK "It dont look like Polar Girl to me"

Mind you it dont LOOK like Star boy to me either but I'm warming to him already.

Kid Psycho! That's just a great name to be lying around in limbo for the last several realities. Plus turban = indie rock in spades.

I believe I will make it my goal to get Kid Psycho and Ronn-Kar reimagined.

Quislet, Tyroc, Gates/ Jump Bug (Cool name!), Tellus, Brin, Mysa and just for the hell of it - the Tornado Twins.

Bring 'em back I say, bring 'em all back!

It may not be practical, but I agree with Oldman & Harbinger - bring them all back.

However, if there ever was a set-up line, it's "Eat it, grandpa" for a 50 year old Tenzil Kem. There's got to be one old rebel among those stuffed shirt adults.

My vote is for Mysa. This Legion needs her unflinching conscience.

My vote is for all the legionnaires of all the eras(except Sensor the snake).
My favorites are Spider Girl and Veilmist.
