As franchises go, Super Sentai and the Legion of Super-Heroes have a lot in common: Tons of characters, reboots as necessary, my utter adoration. Really, the only major question when considering whether to be Power Ranger or Legionnaire is the argument between a protective helmet and a flight ring. Each team has endless places where one could fit in, from being the smart one to the mean one to the snarky womanizer who needs to calm down. (Looking at you Dirk Morgna and/or Yuki Gai.) Both teams have a lot going for them for the potential superhero member, leading to today’s recruiting query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) loves the 30th Century, but feels that the only fat Sentai member gets treated better than the only fat Legionnaire, which makes my decision for me, asking: Which would you rather be: Power Ranger or Legionnaire?

Legionnaire, because there appears to be much more space for sartorial self-expression.
Just wanted to say happy birthday, Matthew! I know it’s tomorrow, but wanted to get this in early.
Probably Power Ranger, or rather some more obscure Sentai. Legion members seem to get killed or lost in space/time on regular basis.
