Surely you're not suggesting that our Nura gets old and fat and attached to the bottle?
Quislet's World: we finally get to see Quislet's home in this educational series targetted towards children. Think visuals sort of like Elmo's world. Na-na-na-na Quislet's World
Brainiac 5: Science Guy training the next generation of scientists to blow up their labs, lots of experiments that can be repeated at home.

I always believed Dawnstar could be rebooted as a 21st century hero, and carry her own series.
Joining the Brainy bandwagon...I thought it'd be fun to have him meet the sister he never knew he had. She's tall, blonde, gorgeous and dumber than a box of rox. Hilarity insues as the odd couple get to know each other.

On a more serious, yet still blonde note, I'd like to explore Imra's reaction to Proty's deception. My idea is that she has a mental breakdown. Not only does the lie hurt her, but she questions her role as Titan's most talented telepath. She becomes disabled by her grief, shame and anger. She makes the heart wrenching decision to leave Garth and the children.
She goes back to Titan to try and recover. We meet her relatives, who could be very interesting characters. Imra begins to pull herself together, but if you thought she was an "Iron Butt" or "Ice Maiden" before, wait til you meet Saturn WOMAN! She goes solo as a crime fighter and busts up all kinds of criminal activity near Saturn. BTW, she looks hotter than ever.
Plots to unfold... 1. Confrontation with Ayla and Vi. It becomes a three way brawl.
2. The return of random villians from the Legion's past.
3. Imra's son becomes Validus again! This story has twists and turns that will shock and awe. Continued in issue #4.
4. The conclusion to the Validus saga. Plus, a meeting with Garth, that doesn't go well.
5. Therapy with Brainy. Some untold tales of their time as Legionnaires.
6. A new villain meets the pumped up new Imra. Yes, you can feel sorry for him already.
7. The Legion of Saturn Woman fans!!! There are conventions and everything! Evidently, she's as big a hit solo as she was when she was in the Legion! What happens when a terrible monster crashes the con?
8. Imra's supporting cast begins to gel. She has a whole posse of sentients who keep her career moving. Is she the loving mother type? Or a diva? Find out!
9. The return of the Legion of Superheroes! A reunion on Mars gives us the low-down on what the various Legionnaires are up to, and what they look like!
10. The NEW LEGION! Imra is asked to lead an LSH that looks like no other Legion has before. Old members, new members and...her son. The cover is an homeage to Adv. #247.
11. Imra meets with her children. In a tender story of reconciliation, the Ice Maiden is melted by the love of the innocent. We also get to peek into the personal lives of some of the colorful new Legionnaires.
12. A year passes! This special issue is told via Imra's journal entries. She's been through a lot. She's accepted her children back into her life. What will happen when she encounters a certain handsome red haired man?

Or better yet, some stories to help bridge the gap between the end of the Magic Wars and the 5 Years Later tales

I always wanted to see an imaginary story set in the Old West. They could call it "The Magnificent Seventeen".
Brainy - Judge Roy Bean Cos - Wyatt Earp Garth - Doc Holliday Dirk - The Sundance Kid Jo - Jesse James Colossal Boy - Mongo from Blazing Saddles Nura - The dance hall Madam with a heart of gold. Tasmia - The Mexican firebrand. etc.

Your scenario reminded me of the various pieces of artwork displayed in LEGION 100, Tromium, where several Legionnaires were displayed in Elseworlds-like environments: Some were air-force pilots, dragon slayers, miniaturised, possessed by Emerald Vi, etc.

I was sort of thinking of Snake as an Indian shaman who caused mass hallucinations by mixing a little peyote in with the tribe's pipe tobacco.

At last: The further (final?) adventures of (ta-da!) the (ugh!) super-pets, in which (in quick sucession), each is spayed, neutered, gelded, or otherwise 'fixed' by some new character. The 'old west' idea has come up b4, but such a story would HAVE TO feature Dawnstar somewhere in it. It's a natural. Seriously though, a Dawnstar mini giving her, perhaps, a new origin and first meeting with the LSH sounds like a GREAT idea.

A (very) few of the Legionnaires had solo careers before joining the group. I've always wanted to see some stories based on their early exploits.
The Shadow Champion of Talok VIII Starring Shadow Lass of course but since her family has a history of filling the role of champion there are plenty of tales that could come out of a series like this.
The Trackers of Satrhaven Of course starring you-know-who but again there could easily be other trackers born to the Starhavenites and maybe they could even have a guild. Lots of space opera available here.
Brainiacs Lots of history there too. Stories to be told from both heroic and villianous viewpoints as we explore the Brainiac lineage.
Legion Academy Always loved the stories told with the cadets and subs. Fun stuff.
Time Trapped Tales of Terror Any Legion anywhere anytime. Any Trapper too. Open ended with lots of room for creatiity.
The Wanderers should have another shot at a book.
The Oversight Watch is a good enough idea to sell a few copies, think of it as a Sci-Fi Suicide Squad.
...and as always...a book dedicated to Legionnaire solo stories would thrill me SOoo much!
