Laurel Kent - er, she works better as an occasional supporting player. Descendant of Superman is too much of a headache and she never screamed Legion material to me.

As long as she is wearing her "Flying Buttress" outfit, Laurel Gand gets my vote.

That's Kal, Kara, 'Karen', Conner and possibly a few others like 'Chris.'
She was re-established as from Earth-2 in Infinite Crisis, but it could have changed when I wasn't paying attention.
As for descendents of Conner, I think it would be cool if some of them turned out to be villains. We know that the Knights (Starman) have villainous descendents, maybe they could be part of the next version of the Justice League of Earth.

Have absolutely no interest in Laurel Kent or any more descendants of 21st century DCU characters than the ones we've already got - Querl, Tasmia and Jenni (any others I'm missing?).
Love Laurel Gand though - especially in her orange/black starfield costume - so would be thrilled to see her back in the books.

Yeah.
Legacy characters are sort of a mixed blessing, but...

Laurel Kent would be great, and they could throw Laurel Gand in as well.

But I still can't stand her, except in Bill's cartoon of her, Kent Shakespeare and Superboy.
If I read the last of the Krypton Wars correctly, there are about 7,000 Kryptonians hiding on Earth now, so if they stay, their might be hundreds of thousands or millions of Kryptonian type powersets in the 31st century. That would be some Legacy!
I'd certainly like Laurel Gand/the Daxamite girl in the Legion AND Kent Shakespeare. I was never sure what his powers were but I loved him in TMK's stories.

I'd like to see Laurel Gand again ... I think the more they keep Supergirl out of the future the better, and having Laurel around would take her place nicely ...

I would LOVE to see the Laurel Gand of the 5YL Legion. I think she would fit right in with this team...and she really is different personality-wise from Supergirl, it wouldn't be any more an issue having the two of them than it is having Mon-El and Superboy.
I think the reboot Laurel Gand got off to a good start and had an interesting character evolution with overcoming her xenophobia, but they really lost the plot with her when they made her Sister Andromeda. Characters with strong religious convictions can be done well in comics (Firebird and Nightcrawler from Marvel come to mind), but it was so heavy-handed with Andromeda and so limiting to the type of stories they could use her in, I really think it ruined her.
I wouldn't mind seeing Laurel Kent; I did think she had potential, and her power is of the Bouncing Boy/Matter-Eater Lad variety where she would be forced to use her wits to be effective. I like seeing that in my Legionnaires.
I don't know if I would like seeing Laurels Kent AND Gand together though...I think Laurel Kent works a lot better if her status as an invulnerable woman is unusual amongst the other female Legionnaires, considering she has no other powers to back it up.

Gah! You're right: how could I forget Thunder? Yes, by all means, bring her back, too!
