1) "The Legion of Super-Villains"- Early tales from the 60's, particularly their unreprinted appearances in JIMMY OLSEN.
2) "Heroic Hopes: Legionnaire Try-Outs"- Various tales of Legion applicants.
3) "The Legion of Super-Pets"-First appearances stories for each member, plus their Legion cases.
4) "The Khundish Chronicles"-Issues spotlighting the UP's relentless alien foes.
5) "The Many Lives of Mon-El"-Spotlight issues culled from such series as ACTION, ADVENTURE, LEGION, SUPERBOY, and VALOR but the major draw would be the (reportedly) finished tale of Lar Gand shelved from SECRET ORIGINS.
Others?

Great idea for a thread! Specifically love your Khundish Chronicles idea!
7) "Traitors" - Dynamo Boy, Command Kid, Nemesis Kid 2-parter, Jo falsely accused and Size Lad / Blackout Boy / Magnetic Kid.

I second EarthWar

Super-Pets.
Posted by Ken Arromdee on :
Earthwar might work, although it's still a little old compared to most stories that get collected. Things like Super-Pets or Jimmy Olsen stories are bad ideas, because most people can't take that Silver Age stuff seriously.
Posted by Power Boy on :
Earthwar yeah.
Legion Lost.
Legion of the Damned
The Magic Wars. Maybe preceded by those issues with the new costumes, LSV, and Emerald Empress.
(i did also really like the beginning of the 5YL, Roxxas, Mordruverse, rescuing Mysa, getting the gang back together. but don't think it works as a trade unless you did like 12 issues.)

How 'bout and "All Legion Romance" tpb?
Featuring stuff like the Jo-as-traitor, Legion of Super-Outlaws, Dream Girl's first appearance, the Femnaz story, the v4 Shvaugn/Sean issue, etc.

Well, there's always the All-Death tpb.
Collecting the end of Ferro Lad, Beast Boy, Invisible Kid, Chemical King, Karate Kid, Nemesis Kid, Magnetic Kid, Blok, etc.
