Yup, JSA is the best team after Legion.
Grant Morrison's JLA.

Still has it, he and Aurora lost their Children of the Vault upgrade though, but then got a different one afterwards and seem to be at those levels of CoV again.

Ok. I'd have to reread those arcs because I don't remember him and his sis losing any upgrade. They should have the Children of the Vault upgrade and the Hand upgrade ...the only thing they should have lost is the mind control. I know it was stated (cov) to be temporary but his power level seemed to remain high. Is there a scene where the department is shown?

Does Northstar really need a boost though?

To fight jay? No not really I mean he is younger and arguably more durable an as fast. Jay is more experienced. It's be a cool fight but Jay has better feats imo

Oh they for sure lost the CoV upgrade. It was mentioned in the comics (cant remember issue), but was mentioned in the handbooks. Northstar still does have his hand upgrade. As he can flashbang on his own now and his super strength tearing down metal steel doors with his hands

Northstar mentions he can travel between countries in the blink of an eye

As mentioned he can flashbang on his own, but now has other abilities such as energy blasts

Northstar seems to be faster than his twin?

GDS Legion is better as a team if not in story and that was just one team arc. As great JLA was, Legion is on a whole other level in terms of story telling, world building and the sheer mythos.

There is nothing like Legion of Superheroes and frankly there would never be a team like that again.

Speed steal jay doesnt like using it and has stated he thinks it's cheating but he does use it as frequently as Wally in fact if you consider how often he used it to amp Bart more so.

So he wont steal the speed to use but would to hamper.

So Jay stomps then. Even if he doesn't steal speed and add it to himself, Northstar would still be losing speed, so it would be irrelevant if Jay didn't gain anymore speed.

So yeah, Jay stomps unless people want to gimp Jay and forbid him from using the speed steal.

Supposed to be close or near equals since the "rebirth" upgrade. Aurora is more powerful overall though

that was actually a story. Northstar lived in Asgard and they actually were going to retcon their origins making them elves, but they changed it last minute

She doesn't seem as fast though. He seems to be the speedster whereas she has far more power to work with.

That was changed, their basically both more then speedsters but Aurora had more upgrades then Northstar didn't get (Weapon X, Walter's alterations). She's still an elite speedster even Northstar said their the same. She just doesn't appear much, so doesn't get the same spotlight

I was thinking in the comics.

Got the impression that you guys thought he was due for a powerup or something, which I feel is unnecessary.

No. I would like to see more of his sister. More snowbird etc...
