Some of you know that Dream Girl's my favorite from way back. I can tell you exactly why.

I've also mentioned that my other favorite from way back is Princess/Queen Projectra. I don't know why. It's not her powers. It's not That Costume. It's not her personality or storylines. The royalty thing doesn't do anything for me either. Yet she zoomed right to the top of my list.

One of our new members has mentioned that she has an I-don't-know-why interest, so I suppose I'm not the only one. Anyone else?

I know why all my favorites are my favorites. I guess I don't belong in the I-don't-know-why club! [Frown]

Okay, so I know it's not Legion but... Havok from the X-Men. Don't ask me why, I can't give you an answer. But I love the jerk.

Sketchy's also a favorite (and I don't need to explain why - just go over to Bits) but I don't know why he posted to this thread! (*tee-hee*)

I don't even know why I like the Legion in the first place. I especially don't know why I like it as much as I do.

Reasons to like projectra

1. She has a lot of mystery around her. It is exciting to see what she'll do next.

2. Secret Romance. She has a secret Romance with Brin that has a bunch of history that we just don't know. Also intriguing

3. She went from having relatively no use and basically just funding the legion to being the most powerful magic user in possibly the galaxy in a matter of a few panels. Even she doesn't know what her powers are?

4. She's willing to go to great lengths to get her man back and that is admirable

5. You just dig girls with white hair?

I don't know why I love Adventure-era Sun Boy, but I do. Same goes for Shadow Lass (all eras)!

(My 5 faves though, I know exactly why: Cos, Tinya, Val, Jo, Wildfire).

Projectra and Sensor are favorites. I remember my first view of Projectra was in the Earth War conclusion when all of the Legion are firing their powers at Mordru. Jeckie is projecting a wolf's head and I thought "why not a coffin of earth?"

Other no reason for favorites:

Monstress
Red Tornado
Raven

Yeah, okay, I do actually have no clue why I like Timber Wolf. His character (tough feral loner, etc.) is one I don't typically like, I think his name is really stupid (I swear, in the 31st century, wolves are probably extinct!), and I've never liked any of his costumes. Well, that might be an exaggeration - v4 post-ZH I liked, but he seemed to be imitating Wolverine more than usual (I know he came first, but he didn't have a healing factor before), and I have a weak spot for biker jackets.

It's a mystery! He does seem to be a bit of a fan favourite, though.

Chemical King

Stupid name, Silly (and boring) costume, incomprehensible power that virtually no Legion scribe was able to write, and was way too much like Element Lad's, anyway.

I'm not gay either, so that's not it.

Both Sun Boy and Polar Boy were my two all-time favorite Legionnaires and I don't know why.

From the Legionverse,

Laurel Kent
Lamprey
Nightwind

I've always been a huge fan of 'Lower Decks' sort of characters, and the Subs ironically never felt 'fringe' enough for me.

Laurel's my number one tho. I love her. Even the stupid super-poncho.
