This got me thinking what individual Legionnaires might do as Time Trapper. Cosmic Boy was the quintessential Legion leader, so when he became the Time Trapper, it was all about saving the Legion... until he went insane.
Luornu Durgo as Time Trapper:
She would prevent her third self from being murdered by Computo. She'd manipulate events to have a brief but wild affair with Superboy and get the infatuation out of her system before settling down with Chuck. Starting to go insane, she'd decide to let Computo be built, but to have it murder Brainiac 5 instead. When she was confronted by her Duo Damsel self as part of the Conspiracy, she'd let her two selves live, and accept voluntary extinction, opening the way for another Legionnaire to assume the purple robe.
