With Rond dead, Celeste as a GL would be a Green Lantern addition I could live with....I would rather not see a GL in the Legion at all to be honest, I think the Legion works best when it isn't so tied to present day DCU.
I didn't mind the idea of Rond being one, but I kind of got the impression nobody really knew what to do with him once it was revealed that he had the Green Lantern ring....if there is gonna be a new GL Corps, I would really prefer it be something that is background to be used in stories every now and then, not something that detracts from existing Legion cast story possibilities.
Anyway, I have a really bad feeling that Mon-El is gonna kick the bucket and Sodam Yat will be the new Daxamite with a GL ring to boot. I really hope not, Sodam Yat does absolutely NOTHING for me as a character.....

I would like to see Rond pop up as an active member on an occasional basis, when something involving time travel or the cosmic scope of the GL corps/guardians comes into play.

Actually, Kinetix would be the logical choice to be a power-ring collector, since in ReBoot continuity (her only continuity, actually) she got her powers while seeking out powerful artifacts.
It would be kinda cool if she got the second Emerald Eye, too (remember, the one McCauley's young female friend from the Work Force had?). In fact, that could be her new gig: seeking out powerful DC universe artifacts in general, not just rings.

Excuse me but can you please direct me to the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles?

If its not Rond Vidar who's going to be the next Green Lantern in LSH #1 as I'm predicting, then I hope it is Matter-Eater Lad. Something needs to be done with this character which has become stagnant over the years. It still seems out of place that he would be chosen to be part of the Espionage Squad that travelled back in time for the Brainiac story. His power is not what I would call subtle.

On the other hand, his power has led to him being one of the Legionnaires who has had the most 'success' outside of super-heroing, as he is forced by circumstances to get by in the real world (or what passes for a 'real world' in the 30th century, anyway). Legionnaires who've spent some time living ordinary 'retired' non-Legion-lives, such as Tenz, Chuck, Lu, Val and Jeckie, might be ideally suited to long-term espionage missions.

I love the idea of there being a Green Lantern in the Legionverse, just not on the team. I'd rather they just be part of the rich tapestry of the 31st century DCU like the Heroes of Lallor or Dev-Em. (back before they screwed him up)

Total agreement there. I want there to be 31st century Amazons and Atlanteans and Green Lanterns and Martians and some dude wearing the Helmet of Nabu, but the Legion already has twenty-five to seventy established characters (and infinite room for non-derivative additions), it doesn't need to be burdened with a bunch of cheap knock-offs of 20th century heroes.
This is the Legion of Super-Heroes, not Justice League 3000.

This very much reflects how I want to see things done. There are heroes in the 30th century. Not all are in the Legion. Not all even need appear in the Legion's book. I'd rather a story about 30th century Amazons appeared in the Wonder Woman title than the Legion title.
