@Neithan - How did the Lion not completely sid ewith the Emperor? He was/is pretty clearly loyal to me, just because there are some unanswered question and his legion is shrouded in mystery doesn't mean he is not loyal. Also, there is no reason to belive whatsoever that his early years in Calliban tainted him, as I said warp energies were used in the creation of all the Primarchs, so in a way they were all touched, but it did not cause them to turn traitor. Furthermore, many of the other loyalists grew up on planets just as terrible as Calliban in their own way and we don't think they are potential traitors so why should we think the Lion could be?

@Callummacdonald - well said, and I agree there is no comparison when it comes to Astartes vs Primarch. For people who have read alot of the books, especially HH it clearly shows that Primarchs are completely different from Astartes and much, much more powerful, so an Astartes could never kill a Primarch, whether it was Abaddon, Ahriman, Kharn or who ever.

On the topic I would think the Lion would probably the most plausible to make a return. If he did and Russ also returned, no way they would be enemies as some have suggested. They would probably work together pretty well, as stated in the above post, they already have.
