I agree. Pre-TMK, Rokk was the first leader and the one who swore in new leaders/presided over internal trials, but v.4 #1 really began the era when Cos was THE core of the group, a trend that has followed through in SW6, Reboot and Threeboot.
While it works, and works well, I still advocate that some time on the shelf would be good for Threeboot Rokk. If L3W needs a central leader, let it be Preboot Rokk.

you know i think rokk is the quintessential, responsible, put-upon Legion leader, but i think we've had other really good leaders that over shadowed because of he's so classic (i really liked Kid Quantum's run).
i want rokk to come back because he's one of those that are "core" legionnaires to me and i like seeing the founders interact.
...and early on, manapul drew a really awesome picture of the three founders and i want him to draw rokk so bad!!!

I really have to wonder if the disappearance of Rokk and the disappearance of Lu & Val in the most recent issue are tied into Lo3W. Yes, the people who took Rokk told him they were from the 41st century, and they may well have been, but I suspect they were actually beginning to recruit the initial army for the battle with the Time Trapper & Superboy Prime's LSV.
Heck, they could have been descendants of the Legion with knowledge of the Time Trappers ploy this time. It would all fit and lead right into Lo3W.
Of course it could have been an appearance by Rip Hunter and Booster Gold also in attempting to fix the Time Trappers manipulation of the Time Stream.
Either way, I suspect all three will play an integral part of the upcoming Lo3W.

I agree. In fact, all over DCU now there seems to be hints at time anomalies in a very fast pace. Since Time Trapper is the main villain in L3W and Cos was one of the Time Trappers at least in one of the Legion versions (a trick as lousy as Captain Atom as Monarch, IMHO).

... Come to think of it, it might as well be Cos, alive and well. Hopefully not. But taking one of Waid's last-minute sub-sub-plots and indirectly tying it into Lo3W? Unclassy.
