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"?
