Writer: someone who can handle a large cast of voices.
Artist: someone who has a vision of the future and SF.
Willingham: On Fables, so many of his characters are so distinct, I think I could pinpoint which one was speaking without the picture. He's great with personalities and story timing.
Lightle: His characters, cultures and landscapes always amaze me. They're inventive and distinct. His "After Dark" issue on Talok is one of my visual favorites all-time and his Qward images said more to me than words ever could.
At least one of them is fond of Legion.

Geoff Johns, the best writer in the business, hopefully he can do for the Legion what he has done for Green Lantern, make sense of bad writing snafu's and making it the best written book in the DCU. Bring in Bierbaums to assist, to give Geoff an assist and bring their flavor to the project.
Artist, since Alan Davis is exclusive to Marvel I'd say in this order George Perez, Jim Lee, or Carlos Pacheco.

I think Blockade Boy's suggestion of Bill Willingham might get my vote for 'totally never even considered him, but that actually would rock my world'. I think it could be pure magic to have him as the Legion writer and let him just go with it.

Reasoning: They wrote the Legion well during Crisis on Infinite Earths, and their run on the New Teen Titans was legendary. I would want them co-plotting. I think it could be awesome.

Wow - I'm surprised at some of the choices up so far. I didn't think anyone would think of James Robinson, but I loved his Starman!
1) Kurt Busiek and George Perez
2) Geoff Johns and Steve Lightle
3) James Robinson and Ed Benes
4) Gail Simone and Farmer & Davis

Writer: Grant Morrison, Alan Moore (yeah right) or Joss Whedon Artist: Gene Ha, John Cassidy, Chris Bachalo, Adam Hughes Any combination of the above would do it for me.

I mentioned just a couple of artists but basically Alan Davis, Jim Lee, Chris Batista, Pacheco, Perez, Jimenez, or Lightle do it for me. Maybe some more.
