Hello all,

As some of you may know, while most of you probably do not, I havve a huge fan-fic project that has been in development hell for the last few years.

It picks up with our Legion pals right after Zero Hour and continues the adventures of the Pre-Reboot Legionnaires.

I have a ton of notes on where I plan on going with my ideas, and would eventually like any help in doing some writing...Once I get things to a certian point.

The reason for this post though is a little different.

I want to pick your brains...I want to know all the unresolved plotlines from the Legion (most of us) call our own.

For example:

-Whose Jawbone was in the canister?

-Why did everyone really disappear during Zero Hour?

-Did Gim cheat on Yera with Lournu?

-Whatever happened to the Wanderers?

-Did Shady die before she disappeared?

-What's up with Dev-Em, and where did he really come from? Way to many origins for the lad, so I'm giving him my version...

Things like that. What resolutions do you want to see...Like I said, I have a bunch of stuff to go through, but I want more...

A solution to Wildfire's condition (he was inhabiting Dirk's corpse), which could probably be combined with bringing Quislet back.

I definately have some ideas for Wildfire. Major ideas. I need to check the timeline to see if they'll work though.

Quislet is a character that I never warmed to...sorry Steve, but you gave me an idea to add in.

thanks.

I thought that the Legionnaires who disappeared disappeared due to the fact that they had no temporal doubles (the SW6 Legionnaires).

I think Gim would cheat, but Luornu wouldn't. Gim's whole relationship was built on a lie, so I don't have any problem believing he might engage in some hanky-panky. Lu, on the other hand, was always written as happy in her relationship, plus the fact that she had never really shown any interest in Gim. Which, of course, leaves us with the idea that Yera changes shape for kinky sex games...I know she's an alien (and may have different ideas about what's weird), but what kind of self-image would you have if your husband asked you to change your shape AND YOU DID IT?

As for Dev-Em, since everything has been rebooted, make him Kryptonian. It's only right.

As for the canister, I vote that it should have something to do with Starfinger. I'm having trouble remembering--was it really a jawbone? Didn't the last Starfinger end up inside his ring or something?


The only consistent feature of all of your dissatisfying relationships is you.

Don't judge me!

There's going to be further explanation as to the reasons the Legionnaires disappeared. I just had an epiphany today as to some of this...so I hope people like it.

Gim and Yera are going to be interesting to write. I have some bizarre things in store for them.

As for Dev...I'm going to explain everything, and It's actually going to make some sort of sense.

I know what was in the canister, at least for my story. And it's going to spell trouble for the Legion. Eye guarantee it. lol

Actually I never saw Lu as particularly happy in her relationship, as far as the fact that she'd settled for her second choice. Chuck amused her, she was appreciative of his interest in her, but I never really thought she loved him. This is especially evident in v3 around the time of the "Conspiracy" and its consequences.

That said, I don't think she would cheat, particularly with Gim.

I'm very VERY interested in this project!!! PLEASE make sure you post it somewhere I can read it!!!!! It's the concept I've been wishing to see all along.

My belief was that everyone disappeared at Zero Hour, back into their actual lives, no one died. This leaves each and every character needing to reconcile what they've seen and learned during the crisis. It's pretty easy for the Batch SW6 characters to just get back in their hq and move on. Their young minds don't need to ponder the questions that have come up for the Adult Legion.

These questions are many....

What does Garth do now that Ayla knows about him being Proty? Does he tell Imra and the kids? I'm sure he'll be thinking about it a lot, and it'd be easier than ever for Imra to accidently read it in his mind. This has been a personal problem for me ever since it's exposure, so I'd definitely want to see some sort of resolution to it. I just hope some dignity can be maintained.

How does Rokk cope with knowing that some day he'll become the Time Trapper? That indeed, the Time Trapper they've already faced, is actually a version of himself?

IIRC, Lu had regained her third body, right? But she was starting to act a tad loony. Wasn't this the beginning of her three selves showing distinctive personality traits? Maybe the one that was flirting with Gim was what we'd now consider Lu Purple. Thus, the flirting was harmless, but unexpected.

Tinya has been in limbo for a long time, thought dead. Jo has been mourning her, but hasn't exactly behaved like a good boy. He got back with his Rimborian gang. He's dealing Silverale. He's had many women (including Nura...). How will Tinya take all that? How will she learn about it all?

Will Cham stay with the young Legionnaires?

Here's the biggie..... How do you reconcile Superboy/Superman/Supergirl/Laurel Gand/Mon-El/Valor??? Boggles my mind. What is the Legion's origin? Oy.

I'll get back to this.... I'm sure I have more thoughts...

Another one. Wildfire revealed what he had done to the adult Dirks body...how do his team-mates handle that?

Rond Vidar - Green Lantern Ring. Is it still around

Celeste - The Green energy vs Darkstar outfit

New Legionnaires from reboot Legion (the new stuff) to be introduced. Some as teens, mabe others as adults? Zoe to be the center of a major storyline.

What to do about Earth? Or the lack thereof. EDE actually knows my plans for Earths survivors, and I just hope he stays quiet about it...if he even remembers.

What age is everyone? There were a lot of things happening around the end, and a lot of people shifted their ages. Who stays with what age.

Multiple future storylines for the Legion...cool.

Mordru crushed Rond's ring into powder early in v4 and it was never seen again.

I personally would ignore the Darkstar suit, which was sort of a throwaway retcon during Zero Hour.

I definitely would ignore the Darkstar outfit for Celeste.

Would Dawnstar use gene therapy to get her wings back?

And don't forget that at the time of ZERO HOUR, Drura and Jacques (Infectious Lass and Invisible Kid 2) were prominent members!

And Calamity King had been a member during the 5-Year Gap but was never seen during TMK... why?

I have a huge Dawstar story in the works.

Probably be a "mini series."

Will deal with wings, and Bounty.

Plus a few surprises.

Not only is this a good idea, this is a great idea!!! Do you plan on showing us some of the repercussions from Black Dawn on characters who had yet to be introduced...and what about the Khunds... if memory serves right, they had been pushed back to their pre 2995 borders...also, what about Laurel...will you give us a beliveable reason for her death? That was one of the biggest loads of bunk that I have ever read. Good luck, and let us know when the story is up.

I have plans to touch on a lot of situations and characters.

I hope to have a sneak peek up soon. As well as the first installment here.

CK was working as a double agent within Earthgov, IIRC. One hopes he escaped the destruction of Earth!

Another 5YG member who was never seen was Echo. There had to be more of a story there...

The 5 Year gap stuff is something I've always loved trying to figure out! What was Black Dawn, how did Wildfire make the ultimate sacrifice? Kent Shakespeare, Nightwind and the other heroes, how they joined and everything...

It's all pretty cool, they're all ideas you could always touch on Dev! I remember somebody had a website that listed fake stories that could've come out between the end of the Levitz era to the 5 year gap chronicling the changes there in. It was pretty cool, if anyone remembers it (I'm sure Grey does), post it for other people to read.
