Thanks, Phoenixx9. This really means a lot.

I'm STILL a fan of Rich Rider's Nova, but I'm glad someone mentioned classic Vance Astro.

Couldn't resist posting an image of his radically-cool spacesuit.

Since he’s not being used anywhere else, would anyone else think Justice would make a welcome addition to the current band of Guardians?

Eh, I like him but I wouldn't want yet another white human male on the team.
New additions need to bring different perspectives to the book. I'd rather they explored Vance's mutant side for a change, especially considering everything that's been going on in the X-books.
I could see him as part of a team that's still fighting for peaceful coexistence, even if other X-teams have different priorities. Have Justice, Dazzler, Angel, Monet, Karma etc as part of X-Corp trying to keep human and mutants on good terms.

Should Phyla go by the name of Corona? It’d be nice to see someone one of the long unused cosmic names.

Unfortunately I think that particular name will be too tainted by this year's pandemic for anyone to want to choose it as a character name.

Ugh. Gross. Lux maybe? Both deal with effects of light.

She could take her brother Genis' old code name of Photon.

She could take her brother Genis' old code name of Photon.

That could work, I’d just rather see something that wasn’t a hand me down from her brother.

What exactly are Phyla earth 90210’s powers?

What exactly are Phyla earth 90210’s powers?

Isn't she known as Captain Marvel in that reality? Have no idea of her powers though!

[kevlon]

Thank you for posting pics of Vance. He was always my favourite New Warrior. I do love that both Astro and Astrovik always have similar looking costumes and I hope that tradition continues.

I'd love to see young Vance join the Guardians! He's a more powerful tk user than his older self.

What exactly are Phyla earth 90210’s powers?

She's got the standard flight and super strength combo, photon blasts, and she has some form of Cosmic Awareness which is why her skin turns into a blue starfield in battle

She also has some sort of Quantum Sword which she only seems to use on covers

So Moondragon..... Twice the lady now?

So Moondragon..... Twice the lady now?

I haven't been following the book. Do you mean there are 2 Moondragons?

Moondragon from "our" universe and Moondragon from a perfect universe.
spoilers:

They got merged into one.
