Saturn Girl
Saturn Girl, along with Cosmic Boy and Lightning Lad, was one of the three founding members of the Legion of Super-Heroes, and has always kind of served as a mother figure to the other legionnaires. Except of course for the period in the mid-70s when she sported this Mike Grell Kim Metzger-designed and porn star-inspired uniform, making her more of a MILF figure to the other legionnaires.

Great illustration Rob, definitely love the uniform that she is wearing. Another great illo, as always! That particular uniform reminds me of the 'painted-on' swimsuits that are the rage now in some places. Very well done.
Sorry, guy! The costume was designed by one Kim Metzger and was first drawn in a Legion comic by Winslow Mortimer several years before Mike Grell started working in comics:

I stand corrected!
And here I was thinking that Dave Cockrum, who did mass redesigns of most Legion characters in 1972 or so, did that Saturn Girl costume. He drew the LSH for a short while, then left for Marvel and Grell replaced him. Never heard of Metzger.
Now it's my turn to stand corrected! Richard's right:
