The chances of John Byrne ever drawing a legion book are pretty slim, he's said numerous times that he has no love for the legion and he wouldn't work on a book he doesn't care for...

Reviving this thread, from Geoff Johns panel at Comic-Con, which is for me the nail in the coffin on the current LSH-as-by-Shooter:
Will Johns write a "Legion: Rebirth"? "'Legion of Three Worlds' kind of is one," Johns said, while Sattler noted that the series has a lot of surprises left.
Yet another provocative non-answer followed a question about whether Johns will be working with the Legion on an ongoing basis. "I can't say anything. Not right now."
We'll also see some "Blackest Night"-related material in "Legion of Three Worlds," along with 31st century GL oath that's different from the current one.

So that's it, Johns writing the Action Legion after L3W - probably as a V6.
Game over.

I really hope it is not a mishmash of teams or a re-reboot to Action Legion. Hopefully, it will be clear we have multiple Legions across the multiverse.
However, I do think Johns is stretching his tentacles over Legion for it to become the 4th Superman title, making the Superman world be a weekly event (with Action and Supergirl).

there is no reason not to try and see if multiple Legions at once can't work.

When Geoff Johns was asked if there would be a "Legion:Rebirth" he said L3W was it.
The GL and Flash Rebirths were both about bringing back the silver age characters but without wiping out what's gone on since. But how that can work with teams and with three people all called Thom Kallor for example?

Hm, hope that doesn't mean I have to buy the other Superman titles as well... never cared for those...
If they are doing an amalgamated version of the three Legions, it will be the death of it. What I personally would prefer would be a return to pre-crisis continuity (or para-continuity due to the slight changes) and a decent "what happened between Crisis and Lightning Saga" storyline. Then, they could even shoehorn new characters in like (shudder....) XS or Gates to please the Reboot fans. Those characters just might have joined the Legion AFTER crisis happened, no deal.
As for Shooters Legion, i really like the current storyline, finally some story in this book, but I guess it's just too late...
