As a kid who grew up in Oklahoma, I sometimes felt like 'from the west' was the one demographic that would never get a hero!
But yeah, I'm a huge fan of Texas Twister, like the idea of Shooting Star having an actual mutant power of flight and not some gimmicky boots she uses to fake it and Red Wolf (although the Red Wolf I liked from Occupy Avengers seems to have been a *different* Red Wolf?). Firebird, eh, not as much of a fan of the fiery-bird-image on someone not named Phoenix, but the character herself is fine.
I want to see The Law Enforcement Squad of Earth-22519 return.

Reality is for those who are afraid of science fiction.

Yes, I know. Aleta was always part of Starhawk, but appeared as her own person with photonic light powers after being separated from Starhawk (Stakar).
I listed her because I would like to see her too with the other OGs.
Both Starhawk and Nikki were additions to the original 4 Guardians.

Yes please. I kinda prefer Aleta to Stakar, for the Starhawk role, but both is fine, too.
But Nikki is my favorite. A combination of superhuman reflexes and agility, and resistance to / absorption of energy attacks, in a future/space setting where 90% of the bad-guys use guns that shoot energy zaps just makes her an amazing fighter. Pretty much blaster-proof, even if she wasn't nearly impossible to hit, thanks to moving like Spider-Man, combined with her own better-than-Hawkeye levels of accuracy with her own ray-guns? I love fast-moving acrobatic characters like Daredevil, Nightcrawler, Spider-Man for the fast dynamic visuals, and she even has the ranged utility most of those other acrobatic types lack, so Nikki's right in my happy place.
Since the original GotG are Marvel's answer to the LSH, I'd love to see them return with a huge cast including almost everyone from the 90s run and a few new characters as well. Make it a truly galactic sized team.
Clandestine has so much potential. I know they haven't done well without Alan Davis in the past, but I am sure there is someone out there who can do them justice.
