It's been a while since one of these kinds of polls has been done. So, come on in and vote for your top 12 faves! Legionnaires from virtually all eras (even the 5 Year Gap only members) have been included, and I even threw in honararies and reservists.

And da winners:

19 votes

BRAINIAC 5

No surprise there! Well, maybe a little - usually Invisible Kid takes the lead in these.

18 votes

APPARITION / PHANTOM GIRL

A bit of a shock. Tinya usually scores high, but she's also usually stuck in the pack. You go, girl!

17

UMBRA / SHADOW LASS

A bit of a shock too; like Tinya, she's usually stuck in the pack.

16

COSMIC BOY
DREAMER / DREAM GIRL
INVISIBLE KID (LYLE)

No surprises here, though Lyle usually takes 1st or 2nd in these polls. Interesting to note too that cos is the only one of the founders who made it to the top 12.

15

ELEMENT LAD
ULTRA BOY

Good to see that Jan has staying power even though he's been gone for a while. He must be glad to gave such loyal fans.

14

M'ONEL
TIMBER WOLF

12

KARATE KID
PRINCESS PROJECTRA / SENSOR GIRL
STAR BOY
XS

Jenni is undoubtedly one of the best things to come out of the reboot.

11

GATES
TRIAD
VIOLET
WHITE WITCH
WILDFIRE

Only real surprise here is Triad; she usually manages to make it into the top 5!

9

ANDROMEDA
MATTER-EATER LAD

Pretty good for two characters who've been absent for so long.

8

BLOK
CHAMELEON
DAWNSTAR
SATURN GIRL

Poor Cham; he's kinda one of those Legionnaires whyom everybody likes but few really love. And I guess Imra's hussy ways have caught up with her?

7

FERRO
LIVE WIRE / LIGHTNING LAD
SPARK / LIGHT(NING) LASS
SUN BOY
SUPERGIRL

Ayla is another one of those old-timers whom everybody seems to like but not many seem to love. And Garth's votes have slipped pretty low too! Jarth sure has done a lot of damage to him.

6

BOUNCING BOY
POLAR BOY

5

INFECTIOUS LASS
QUISLET
KINETIX
SHIKARI

Shikari's scores a bit of a surprise - she usually scores a bit higher. Guess her novelty's worn off a bit.

4

CHEMICAL KING
KID QUANTUM II
NIGHT GIRL
TELLUS
TYROC

Lydda's status as a longtime supporting character's certainly paid off. And Tyroc certainly made a mark with his few appearances.

3

INVISIBLE KID II
LEVIATHAN

Ouch! Poor Gim - the lowest scorer among the old timers of the Legion.

2

COLOR KID
CRYSTAL KID
DRAGONMAGE
KENT SHAKESPEARE
LANA LANG

Crystal Kid scored pretty high for someone whose entire Legion tenure was in the 5 Year Gap.

1

Calamity King
Catspaw
Celeste Rockfish
Chlorophyll Kid
Computo
Fire Lad
Gear
Karate Kid II
Kid Psycho
Kono
Magnetic Kid

Hey, don't knock these guys! At least they got ONE vote!

Kid Quantum
Porcupine Pete
Reflecto
Spider Girl
Stone Boy
Storm Boy
Superboy (Kon)
Veilmist
Visi-Lad


No real surprises here, I guess, though I thought Stone Boy and Spider Girl would at least have made some fans.

Again, thanks to everyone who voted!

Ah, sometimes the simple polls are the most fun. Thanks IB!

The worse part of these things is always narrowing down favorites. There are so many characters I love, especially somewhat secondary characters like Infectious Lass, Spider-Girl, and Kono, that it's hard to decide who beats out who and deserves a mention.

In the end, I went with my favorites who were more traditional Legionnaires.

Thanks, Future

And I agree, after my top 5 or 6 faves I had trouble filling out the rest of the 12 too. Infectious Lass, Polar Boy, Spider Girl, Nightwind, the White Witch... So many others!

This actually wasn't that hard for me. I have a list of favs but most of the rest occupy about the same level of affection, then there are those I simply don't care for.

That's about how it is for me, too. A lot of great characters, but a couple really do stand out for me.

harder than I thought. I have to many faves, I guess.

Zoe doesn't make my 12, tho.

sorry, IBby.

Arg, it was to hard to choose. There are to many characters I like.

Go Dreamy Go! Classic smart version of course!

Interesting results so far, with several characters whom I wouldn't expect within shot of the lead.

agreed. previous polls seemed more lopsided in favor of usual suspects like Jan.

That's okay, I'm sorry too... I didn't vote for Kent either.

s'okay... somebody else did, tho.

Thanks, whoever you are!

Oh well, starting to look a little more like the usual suspects now.

I guess my hope that Blok would suddenly shoot into the lead was misplaced.

Well, the leader of the pack is as-per-usual

I'm surprised that Lu's bogged down in the pack tho. And the no. 2 is a definate shock.

Really? The current No. 2 usually scores quite high, but is unusual for her to break out of the upper pack.

I gave Zoe my vote, but that should have been pretty obvious.

Jeepers!

I really am shocked by the current #2!

Has Gail's latest arc bumped her up in people's minds? (she was always one of my favs)

I'm also surprised by Lu's current standing.
