Would you support, with you hard earned dollars, a Legion Archives Suppliment reprinting minor Legion appearances not thus far reprinted in the Legion Archives series?

Good question, especially considering the online discussions about whether or not the KARATE KID series belonged in the Archives.

Which minor Legion appearances have we missed thus far? I remember I was upset that we never saw the LOIS LANE story with all the girl legionnaires in it.

Not counting Elastic Lad appearances, "twice-told tales," super AR items, and Mon-El saves the day from the Phantom Zone stories, here are some of the more significant stories I would like to see:
(NOTE: To my mind these are deserving of Archive treatment as some of the earliest appearances of these characters which few fans have)
SUPERMAN (vol.1) 149 11/61 "The Death of Superman!" (LSH cameo at funeral of Superman)
SUPERBOY (vol.1) 93 12/61 "Lana Lang's Superboy Identity Detection Kit!" (Superboy finds a new way to foil Lana Lang's latest attempt to uncover his secret identity with the help of Chameleon Boy.)
ACTION COMICS 285 2/62 "The World's Greatest Heroine!" (minor LSH app. in Part II "The Infinite Monster!")
SUPERMAN (vol.1) 152 4/62 "The Robot Master!" (Superman is plagued by robot versions of his closest friends. Early Legion appearance in a crucual plot role.)
ACTION COMICS 290 7/62 "Supergirl's Super Boyfriends!" (Legion statuettes, minor Phantom Girl app.)
SUPERMAN (vol.1) 155 8/62 "The Downfall of Superman!" (adult Legionnaires in disguise)
SUPERBOY (vol.1) 100 10/62 "The Day Pete Ross Became a Robot!" (minor LSH app.)
SUPERMAN (vol.1) 156 10/62 "The Last Days of Superman!" (Super-Heroes pay tribute to Superman as he lays dieing from exposure to Virus X. Legion appearance in a critical plot role. Reprinted many times, but well worth reprinting again in a Legion specific book.)
SUPERMAN (vol.1) 157 11/62 "The Super-Revenge of the Phantom Zone Prisoner!" (Mon-El cameo) 2nd story "Superman's Day of Doom!" (Lightning Lad & Cosmic Boy cameo)
