Previous Post Quote: So now, let's hear your predictions for the following categories... Quote: Quote: Absolute Locks: (You can't imagine that these characters will not be on the next team.) Vizh, CSFB!, Yuki, Al B, Manga Shoggoth, Citizen Z, Goldeneyed Quote: Likely picks: (Not quite as sure about these, but you'd still be surprised if they weren't) Ham Boy, Donar, Silicone Sally, Alcheman, Liu Xi Quote: Likely Leaving/not joining: (Current or recent characters from Untold Tales that you have a strong suspicion aren't going to join up with the next LL.) Nats and Dancer Quote: Surprising Picks: (These choices may be out of left-field, forced on the team by the government or just HH having a laugh. You're not sure at all about these, but call it a hunch or just a fun idea.) Trickshot, MLA (who will more likely wind up as part of the Juniors team), and Vinnie DeSoth Quote: Support Staff: (Which supporting characters will be around, and in what roles?) Hallie, the Detonator Hippos, Flapjack, Joan Henry, and Action Figure will keep their old jobs. I have no clue who might become the team's govt liasion. I think Dancer will become Vizh's personal assistant. Quote: Random Line-up thoughts: (The write in portion of the survey.) Sir Mumphrey will either take a job teaching at Paradopolis University (so as to keep him connected with the Juniors) or become the new director of SPUD.

Vinnie De Soth should have definitely been on the list of characters since the Carnifex... I've edited the original post to include him.

Good call on Liu Xi as well. Even though she was on the list, I forgot to pick her as one of my "likely" candidates.

I hadn't put it together before, but I think you're right that the MLA is one of the new Juniors that HH teased about before. He'd definitely fit in with that bunch.

I like both options for Mumphrey that you suggest, although the SPUD one seems more his style. I feel like there's still some kind of reconciliation to do with Drury over what happens in Jason's stories and how sympathetic he's normally played. I could see a deeper plotline there where he goes underground for a while like Nick Fury in the MU, leaving room for Mumph to take his place.
