I know I would [Smile]

So would love a Legion House of EL
Populated by Superboy, Supergirl, Mon-EL, Laurel Kent, Laurel Gand/Andromeda, Superboy II (Connor)& Kent Shakespeare. (Legion House of EL - a group within the Main Legion)

I know I know what you're thinking duplication of powers clause and all that...but remember they had changed Laurel (Gand)'s power set

I would want just Laurel Kent, not Andromeda, but only with the power of invulnerability. It made for a more believable character. Just exactly as she was when she was first introduced.

Love Laurel Kent, aka 'Invulnerable Lass.' I don't even mind if she isn't really sure if she's descended from Clark, Conner, Chris or some other Kent.

Negative interest in Laurel Gand. She's a cheap Supergirl replacement and we've already got a cheap Supergirl.

Ba-dum-bum.

As for the 'House of El,' I'd actually be more interested in the original conception of Sensor Girl, as a super-senses-only version of Supergirl. There are already several Legionnaires who have only one Krypto-power, such as Night Girl (only super-strength) or XS (only super-speed), after all.

Having Projectra return to her classic identity, and a new 'Sensor Girl' show up, turning out to not be an amnesiac powered-down Supergirl, but a descendent of the 'House of El' could be neat.

Using Laurel Kent as a precedent;
Invulnerability - Laurel Kent
Super-Strength - ?
Super-Speed - ?
Flight - ? (certainly not a power that would qualify one for Legion membership, but the House of El might have their own team, and he/she might be a good enough aerial acrobat to be, like Karate Kid, worthy of joining a team of people who can use gadgets to fly in any event)
Super-Senses - Sensor Girl
Heat Vision - ?
and, from Conner;
Telekinesis - ?

There's other characters I'd prefer to see, frankly. But if Levitz and co. have a great story for them, sure.

Would take Laurel Gand in a second especially if we cannot have Kara as a member again, not the same thing I know but a good start. However I would want TMK Laurel Gand more than Reboot Andromeda.

Never understood the love Laurel Kent gets in some quarters. She always seemed to me to be a fairly pointless character only introduced for that slightly creepy Superboy story where they had him inadvertantly being attracted to his own ancestor. Thankfully she was then largely ignored for large periods of time.

I was really quite glad when she was revealed as a Manhunter.

well to be sure it was several generations removed so according to the law ...it would have been ok....werid (societies feelings well current 20/21st century) but ok.

Back to Laurel Gand...actually She had her own personality that was different from any version of Kara's so she could still be a member (i'm so hoping Paul incorporates that Blonde daxamite from the last Mon-EL inthe 21st century book into the legion as Andromeda...

always preferred Laurel Gand over that goody two shoes super chick.

Laurel Kent. not so sure, maybe would be a cool villain or academy member. her haircut's awesome. and her uniform, she's not shy.

Yeah, I'd love to see Andromeda, Supergirl, and Kent Shakesphere, too--plus Conner Kent as a deliberate Superboy successor in the current Legion (with Legion beltbuckle added to the traditional costume, of course--or maybe the Superboy's Legion variation).

--------------------
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so the meek[s] shall inherit inherit the Earth, but what about the geeks? I still want Baffin Island--polar bears and all! :)

That is an awesome idea. Would the father be a normal person or a fellow JSA member?
