    I think it's pretty obvious what needs to happen to get this to sell...

    Retroboot Legion written by Johns with a top shelf artist that fits the Legion ascetic. The retroboot is as close to the original version of the Legion as you can get. It comes with an established fan base instead of trying to create one with yet another reboot. He holds it down with a highly successful run for multiple years only to be fpllowed by Hickman after he finishes his X-men run.

    Hey, it seemed to work for Marvel and Wolverine, so, why not?

    Peace

    Get rid of anything Bendis-related.
    Go back to the Baxter series continuity with a smaller team. Mix of 5YL high-end storytelling mixed with early Levitz super-heroism and silver age Legion optimism.
    Find a good designer for a unique look aka HoxPox.
    An ambitious and intellectual writer and a number of talented artists rotating.
    Every three or four months an OGN sort of imitating European sci fi comics, Jadorowsky etc. Detailed art, sophisticated writing, multiple editions, in continuity yet accessible.
    Variant covers & other tricks keep the book floating.
    Cross-company promotion.
    Classic designs with few updates.
    Definitely more diversity and kind of utopic sexuality/personaes
    Reference to real world problems like what happened to Earth after the climate crisis etc.
    Additional mini-series.
    A steady publications of the collected editions.

That way, readers can slowly learn who all the members are so that it's not overwhelming.

    In other words, membership is still a Legion and we would see all the members here and there but the bulk of the book would be about the members stationed on Earth.

    Love this idea - so much potential here! This definitely provides many angles for different genres of story telling, imho.

    For my money, this should be standard operating procedure for comics in general.
