Meme Picture of 11 year old child working a lawn mower on the White House lawn as Donald Trump looks on, yelling something at the kid. Added text at the top is Donald is yelling "Are you Habeas?" at the child, because, of course, Trump has no idea what Habeas Corpus means when asked earlier today.

Nine year old me, loved the "Beasts" storyline from Justice League of America 221-223. From the opening arena combat, Hawkman being impaled, to the final fight on the small island off the coast of #Newfoundland. My one beef was, the whole story I thought they were building Reena for JLA membership.
Cover Justice League of America #221 cover dated December 1983. Beasts Part 1: Four members of the League, Superman, Hawkman, The Flash, and Firestorm are laid out on a rubble pile with a city skyline behind them, on the top of the rubble over a prone Firestorm and Human-Feline hybrid has a dripping hand with her claws bared ready to strike again.

My favourite team is the #LegionOfSuperHeroes, and that included The Legion of Substitute Heroes. From saving the Legion in secret, to their 1st parade, I liked the Subs. Then I read these, DC Comics Presents 59, and The Legion of Substitute Heroes Special 1, and then. . . I really liked the Subs.
4 comics, on the left 2 copies of DC Comics Presents #59 cover dated July 1983 and starring Superman and the Legion of Substitute Heroes, Superman in the foreground is doing a face palm sighing and asking "Why me?" behind him are members off the Legion of Substitute Heroes with Chlorophyll Kid hovering above Stone Boy, Polar Boy, Fire Lad, and Color Kid. On the right side are two copies of DC Comics Special The Legion of Substitute Heroes a grey background with a photo of the current subs team from left to right Fire Lad, Infectious Lass, Porcupine Pete, Chlorophyll Kid, Stone Boy, Polar Boy, and Color Kid, the person taking the photo has their thumb over the lens a memo is attached from DC Comics Sales to Dick Giordano asking "Do we really expect people to pay for this?", cover date July 1985 and on sale date of 4 April 1985, the comic in back is the Canadian price variant.

My favourite team, and my favourite Legion character's first appearance. Dawnstar joins "Superboy and the #LegionOfSuperHeroes" cover date Apr 77. I think Dawnstar became my favourite Legionnaire after her part in the first issues of Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985.
Covers for two issues of DC Comics Super Boy and the Legion of Super-Heroes #226 cover date April 1977. Dawnstar with her first appearance is surrounded by members of the Legion Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, Sun Boy, Star Boy, and Superboy. Her head is down as she is chastised by an angry Lightning Lad pointing at her asking "You wanted to help us Dawnstar?", Dawnstar exclaims "Yes!" and Superboy declares "Well Instead you blew it!"

I loved All-Star Squadron in the 80's, the concept of exploring Earth-2 during WWII, and how they fleshed out DC's Golden Age characters. On top of that, with covers by Joe Kubert, Rich Buckler, and Jerry Ordway the All-Star Squadron had some of the best covers going at the time.
Covers for DC Comics All-Star Squadron #1 and #2, both covers are by Joe Kubert. On the first cover Dr. Mid-Nite, Hawkman, and the Atom are looking over a table with an assortment of 1940s Mystery Men and Women. on the second cover Plastic Man, Liberty Bell, Robotman, Johnny Quick, Hawkman and The Atom are working together to rip apart an attacking warplane. Covers for DC Comics All-Star Squadron #3 and #5 both by Rich Buckler, Dick Giordano assisted on #3, and Romeo Tanghal on #5. The cover for #3 has Plastic Man, Robotman, Liberty Belle, Dr. Mid-Nite, Hawkman and the Atom all fighting Solomon Grundy while Per Degaton commands him to destroy the heroes. The cover for #5 has Fire-Brand, Robotman, Hawkman, Dr. Mid-Nite and Johnny Quick fighting Nazi Soldiers on the Statue of Liberty. Covers for DC Comics All-Star Squadron #9 and #21, the cover for #9 b Joe Kubert has Robotman and Commander Steel fighting as The Shining Knight, The Atom, Liberty Belle, Johnny Quick, and Hawkgirl look on. the cover for #21 by Jerry Ordwayhas the villain Cyclotron holding the Atom over his head ready to throw him off a building as Firebrand shoots fire at him with Superman, Hawkman and Dr. Fate all charging in to help.

Got to read this today, love the George Street reference. Hoping for more.
X-Men 12, by Jed MacKay and Netho Diaz. Canadian Super Team Alpha Flight join the fight between the X-Men and Alien Bounty Hunters.

Just finished X-Men 12 by Jed MacKay, & Netho Diaz, X-Men are joined by Alpha Flight, taking on intergalactic bounty hunters after Cyclops. Marrina doesn't think very highly of the bounty hunters, or she is giving a lot of credit to the after hours drunks & skeets on George St. In St. John's.

Appearance wise, for sure. She is still a Princess of Orando, & her powers are mostly the same with Illusion Casting as her main ability. When she first appears in the 1996 reboot Legion she is very different from the image in your post, She is changed on a mission against her will.
Who's Who entry for Sensor, a character from DC Comics Legion of Superheroes. She is a large snake-like alien with Gold scales and a white scaled underbelly. Red and Black eyes. Sensor wears a harness with two mechanical arms with the Legion's Logo of a gold circle with a capital L and a shooting star.
