There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

I've only read a couple issues with them and I wish we got to see more of the Reboot's Subs.
Visi-Lad always seemed cool to me (or his Marvel counterpart, Peeper, or the cartoon Titans villain, See-More). Despite being saddled with a terrible visual, the combination of various super-visual senses, hypno-vision and eyebeams seemed useful and fun.
A Subs book could be a fun way to make a 'Teen Titans' or 'Young Justice' or 'New Mutants' or 'Young Avengers' group in the Legion-verse.

I like Visi-Lad! I kind of like that he is a bit of a dork, but he does have quite an effective powerset....
I don't know if I necessarily like the Subs being cast as the "younger superheroes" team because then they're kind of stepping on the Academy's toes.....I think they fit the Doom Patrol mold really well personally; heroic misfits who more often than not are the underdogs.

I was gonna edit my other post, but this ended up being really long so I figure I will just do it as a post on its own:
A good Subs team for me would be:
Rainbow Girl Porcupine Pete Kid Psycho (if Crisis never happend in the new DCU, why not?) Polecat Ron-Karr Antennae Lad (give him Dream Girl-esque control over his power so he CAN call on it specifically when he wants to, but it's still prone to just kicking in randomly every now and then as well)
I think it's time for Infectious Lass, Stone Boy, Color Kid, Chlorophyll Kid and Fire Lad to move up to the main team, they've paid their dues (well the boys have, but if you don't love Drura you must be dead inside).
Even if you don't go the 5YL route and give Stone Boy the ability to move in his stone form, there are still some cool stunts you can allow him to do just by having more exact control of his transformations.
I also wonder, considering that his stone form is a hibernation mode, does he need to sleep as much as a normal human otherwise? When Zwennites go into hibernation, is that the ONLY time they sleep? Could he conceivably function at peak capacity for months on end? Does he have some kind of ridiculous level of stamina that only Daxamites can outmatch? What are his mental defences like if he can stay awake for 6 months at a time without going nutty from sleep deprivation? Would Imra have more trouble wearing him down if he really sets his mind to resisting her?
All just brainstorming, but I don't think it's hard to create advantages of his power that outweigh the disadvantage of him being immobile just by putting a bit of thought into it...

i could totally agree with this. and i don't think they would be taking the place of the Academy students. i think the subs could actually fit a Titan's role. and the academy is more like young justice.
