Nice to see Star Boy doing so well. I always thought he was the most overlooked Legionnaire, at least pre-boot.

I can't believe there's still no votes for Colossal Boy. Talk about the "most overlooked Legionnaire"...

I'd like to try to get seven more votes for an even 50 before closing this down, so if you haven't voted yet, please do so!

I'm pleasantly surprised to see INFECTIOUS LASS draw a solid handful of votes since her only appearances as an actual (?) member were during the much-maligned TMK/Legion on the Run era....

Could a last minute surge knock the current leader off the top? I'm a bit surprised at who's in second place...

Well, look at it this way, maybe he was *eleventh* on everyone's list -- and if we were allowed 11 votes for this poll, he would've come in at #1 with the most total votes!

And I'm not surprised who won. I did that same Poll twice back way at DCMB, and Brainiac 5 won handily in each of those.
We all realize his utility for writers and therefore his frequency of appearance, but my theory about his popularity is that with a 5 choice pick (my polls were that also,) he's going to get chosen on many lists as the 4th ot 5th pick, like "oh, sure, gotta have him too."
I think it would be great to run a hands-down no foolin' around one vote Poll for favorite Legionnaire. I bet he wouldn't make the top ten! Serious.
One of us will have to do this in a few weeks or so. It will be fascinating to see who everyone picks when they have to actually select only their favorite Legionnaire.

I am quite interested on what effect the number of selections given has on who gets votes. In the last "Current Legionnaire" poll I conducted, Chameleon didn't garner a single vote, though he did somewhat better in this one. I'm willing to bet he makes a LOT more top ten lists than top five lists, as he seems a pretty major Legion character, but not many seem to consider him their favorite.

Kip prime has that "25 Legionnaires" thread going on now with weighted votes, so that should be more telling than this current poll.
