I totally, completely agree on that. I'd much rather them insert a diverse character in than alter an existing one.

Bouncing Boy (when he had/has powers), the terrorformed Kinetix, Chemical King (only because he was never written well or even interestingly), Gear (ditto), Matter-Eater Lad (ditto, before TMK).

Kent, see the Chemical King tale in SECTRET ORIGINS' "Dead Legionnaires" issue for an incredibly-written tale starring Chemical King, "The Unique Properties of Condo Arlik".
I always liked the enigma-ish Chemical King, and that heartbreaking story finally showed me why!
Can't help you with Gear. He's pretty "meh", but of course I've always loved le Bounce-Boy and le Eater-Lad!

I agree about terrorformed Zoe. It was especially painful when I picked up issue 18 and found out that Zoe wasn't transformed back to normal at the end. That issue broke my heart!
Preboot Atmos was a jerk, and I'm glad he only joined during the 5 year gap. I was pretty glad to read that he had been killed by BION.

I really liked Chuck the character - especially when we was without powers (reboot, mid-70s) and even as a supporting character during Levitz (except his Comet Queen team-up)... I guess the only time I didn't like him was in Adventure (but even there I did like him with Lu in #380)... I guess I like him better than I realized.
Only the TMK Tenzil did I really cotton to.

'meh' sums it up. vaguely resented him because he filled a space Danielle 'Computo' deserved.
Same goes for the Kid Quantum characters. Would rather see a (non-antarean) James in the book than the way they've altered Thom. Interesting power, cypher personality.
But Celeste 'why the hell is the in the book cauz she doesn't DO anything. Oh wait she's... green' Rockfish is my all time least favourite. My feelings towards Kinetix are practically benevolent compared to that 40 odd issues of waiting for the bint to do anything interesting baggage.

We got that wonderful picture though. Poor guy never even got to go on an adventure with the team.

Quislet sucked the worst for me. Thank God they couldn't figure out what to do with him and wrote him out almost as soon as they wrote him in.
Catspaw is first runner up. Since when are night vision and claws enough to get into the Legion?
Kid Quantum and Kinetix can duke it out for Miss Congeniality. Nobody ever did figure out exactly what they could do. It seemed to change each time they appeared.

Oh, you just can't figure out how to make an action figure for Quis, g'wan, admit it...

That *is* pathetic!

Current worst for me: Invisible Kid. Worst Lyle EVER!
Eryk finding that old SLK quote is hysterical! Pol Krinn's dead corpse is just as interesting as Pol Krinn the Legionnaire! (OK, that's possibly an exaggeration...)
