Okay, I know that as a literary form a haiku is not just five, seven and five syllables, but throwing that to the wind, let's try to come up with some Legion haiku. Can we do one for each Legionnaire?

I'll start with Cosmic Boy (natch):

Cos is the leader.
Were the qualifications
"Looks good in bustier"?

Then two, finally just one.

He's jolly and we like him.
And he married Lu.

So scared and unsure
Courageous underneath the shell

It must have got so tiresome:
"Here, Tenzil, eat this!"

endless sea of purple nector,
unseen in genius.
