Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Characters you would most like to see return.

Oh, I vagely remember her now!
A black girl?
K.
Got it!

Yep.

I never wrote it up as a fanfic, I was just tooling around with Mutants & Masterminds, making a \'legacy\' team of Legion children. (A teenaged Graym, plus sons of Ayla & Brin, Chuck & Luornu, Lar & Tasmia, Gim & Yera, and Brainy & a test-tube, and daughters of Nura & Thom, Projectra & Val, Jo & Tinya, and a pair of non-identical twin kids of Jasmin & Rokk (I used her instead of Lydda, although Lydda also existed in this continuity, which was way more classic than reboot) and a genderless energy creature spawned by Shikari & Wildfire through dubious means...

In that 'verse, the magically-inclined worlds (including Talokk VIII, but not Orando) had more or less seceded from the UP, and formed a smaller counter alliance led from Sorcerer's World. Elysion's parentage was unkown to the rest of the universe, due to the sparse contact between those worlds and the UP, but he was a local hero to those worlds, travelling from world to world via mystical portals they'd set up to foster inter-planetary trade amongst themselves.

Note to Paul Levitz:

BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL KARATE KID, and be quick about it!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure to get my wish now since I asked so nicely eh?

But, for Rao's sake, only bring back one of the original Karate Kid's. Things are confusing enough as it stands.

I love the Legion Legacy characters and stories.
sigh
Wouldn't the various combinations make a fantastic series of Elseworld stories?
Alan Farmer and Mark Davis.
DnA+Coipel.
TMK.
Visions of Legion babies danced in her head.

I loved this poll. Nice job! I too admit not recognizing some of these characters (XTC of Kingdom Come? I'll have to look that up), but seeing the names of others made me smile.

Good to see Gear, Kinetix, Infectious Lass, the Heroes of Lallor, and the Wanderers (the original ones, I hope) getting lots of love.

Wild prediction: The Brain Globes of Rambat will get a big surge at the end of the day.

Happy New Year, everybody!

XTC the daughter of Brainiac 5 and Supergirl

Thanks Kid Quislet,I tried to include someting for every one, it took quite a while to type all those names in twice, once for my master list and then for the poll.

For the most part I was going for characters that have not been used by Paul Levitz as of yet, those from the original continuity and all those from alternate realities that are not duplicate characters.

As much as I tried, I still missed a few characters the biggest one being Shvaughn Erin who I assumed Levitz had used since his return, as I have not been able to get Adventure Comics on a regular basis.

And I'd like to send out my thanks to all those who came out and voted, Happy New Year!

You are MORE than welcome LWL. This is a fun thread.
Happy New Year to you and everyone else on this fine fan site too!

i just wanted to throw in here that while I really like Shvaughn I'm not quite ready to have her and Jan just "pick up where they left off" now that Paul's back writing the book. I hope Paul has other plans for these two ... but I certainly don't mean < The Death of Shvaughn Erin> or anything like that.
I just want her to be back as the supporting character we all love, but not really connected to Element Lad now. He has a different path to go down I think.
There's lots of other people and events that Shvaughn could be a part of in the Legion. Shame she wasn't chosen as the new Green Lantern. That would have been great now that I think about it!

Pleased to see Theena getting plenty of love too! (20 votes). And if I counted right, Kinetix ties for 2nd place. Yeah!!

Looking at the totals, I'm struck by how much we here at Legion World love the ladies. From Levitz's voting totals, Legion fandom in general seems to vote almost exclusively for the menfolk, assuming that his vote totals are indicative of the overall percentages.

Of the Heroes/Friends that got over 10 votes, we picked six out of eight women. Of the villains that got over 10 votes, two out of three are femmes fatale. TMK/5YG? Five out of seven. Threeboot? Three out of five. And the worst result, in the 'Other' category, was still 50/50 for the two characters who got more than 10 votes.

I still think it would be fun to bring Kent Shakespeare into the current Legionverse but not as a member. Have him be the Legions doctors new assistent. It would make sence that the doc would like having a superpowered assistent around when dealing with injured Legion members.

Fatal Five, the real Fatal Five, in a real kickass return.

Seconded!

IMHO, the old FF has been done to death. Besides, Tharok and Sarya are dead and Validus has been turned back into Garridan.

I can't really see Mano or Persuader having the leadership skills to start a new FF, but maybe somebody else could do it with or without them.

I actually agree. And they've been done pretty lamely since the 60s. Give 'em a rest for about a decade, and then bring 'em back as scary as they were in their first couple of appearances.

Well the old Fatal Five have been gone from this Legion's continuity for more than a couple of decades now,ever since Tharok vanished with the Darkman back in the 80's

I'd really like to see Charma and Flare return. Oh, and Quicksand, who first appeared as a lackey of Pulsar Stargrave. Has anyone mentioned her?

Hmmm. Lust, Fire, and Sand. Could be some pretty nifty ingredients for a new FF. Who else could we add to make it an all bad girl team? Mystelor? Maybe she could use her mental powers to keep the other girls from killing Charma. Need a powerhouse for a 5th I think. Titania springs to mind, but she's pretty lame, imo.

Perhaps this new, bad girl FF could be led by the new Satan Girl? At the very least privately funded by Thora of Taltar.

Esper Lass could help reign in Charma's abilities. For raw power, how about a Sklarian? Aren't they strong?

I wouldn't mind seeing Glorith lead Flare, Caress, Quicksand and Esper Lass in a new Fatal Five, but it looks like Emerald Empress will 'return' soon, so she would be the best bet.

I forgot how Tharok died. Last I remember he faced off against Mon-El in the DnA version.

In an unrelated comment, if Levitz and Giffen were to team up again (after the upcoming LSH Annual #1), I would like to see them do an Omen story. Yeah, really.

I think Glorith is too powerful and arrogant to bother teaming up with anyone. Use them as pawns maybe . . .

I think Tharok died in a duel with the Darkman, who was a clone of himself. They sort of canceled each other out or something.

I don't know anything about the new Satan Girl. Does she have Supergirl's powers again? She could be the powerhouse member if so.
