With the DC Universe changing (again) who would you like to see replace Superboy and Supergirl (again) in Legion Continuity? (at least, until the DC Universe changes, again)
1 Kent Shakespeare & Laurel Gand
2 the Pocket-Universe Superboy & the Matrix-Supergirl
3 Kid Psycho & Thunder
4 Hyperboy of Oceania & the Supergirl of Staryl (Action Comics #265, Jun. 1960 & Action Comics $289, Jun. 1962, respectively)
5 Jim Shooter’s Superlad (& Superlass?) of Ancient Krypton
6 Star Boy and Zynthia of Xanthu
7 Klar Ken T5477, the Superman of 2965, and his (heretofore unknown) daughter.
8 Overboy & Overgirl (Uberjungen & Uberfraulein) from Earth-10
9 - 57 Any of the other 50 Superboys and Supergirls across the 52-verse

Hmmm.... using the Supergirl of Staryl would be interesting.

The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

This would be kind of a cool idea, and a way to get the Marvel family out of the grimdark hole it's been stuck in for like the last decade or however long it's been.. Thunder and Anti-Lad would be kind of a quirky take on it too I think, or maybe two of the 853rd century Legionnaires - could be interesting if they deliberately travelled BACK in time to inspire the Legion knowing that someone has to take that role to protect the timestream now that Clark and Kara aren't doing it....

Superman and Supergirl inspired to wear armor costumes by Sir Prize and Miss Terious!
...but you don't have a moment where you're sitting there staring at a table full of twenty-five characters with little name signs that say, "Hi, my superpower is confusing you!"

BTW, Morrison confirmed at SDCC today that Superman remains connected to the Legion, who appear in Action #1. Stand down from red alert!

As the person who asked the question about Superboy and the Legion during the Superman panel today, my read of his answer is that either the Legion is just mentioned or they have a cameo appearance in Action #1. Morrison said you'd have to look closely, so I don't think the Legion's presence will be obvious.
Also, he confirmed Superboy would still have spent some time with the Legion, but his career will evidently not be exactly the same. Given that Superman will not exactly have mastered flight in Action #1, I'd think it would have to be different to some extent. But at least he'll still be part of the Legion. No COIE redux, thank God.

No COIE redux, thank God. Mega kudos for asking the question. Superboy/man will have had a flight ring to be able to fly (presumably in the 21st century as well!) so that would not be a restriction. The idea that the Legion nurtured his developing powers deserves a mini at least.
