Well, the preview images from DC Universe 0 only show the LS Legion, but we still have the 3 legions story that's supposedly coming, and it could be it.

Great new issue the latest Action was. I really love this run more and more. The story develops quite nicely, and there lots of space for characterization.
I really feel with this version of the Legion, and I'm aching to finally see the whole team free and kicking the Justice Leagues butt! The Subs crashing into the space station was a great beginning, the Legion sneaking in was a great addition - but the plan to split up instead of first freeing the whole team was lousy... come on, this is 12th Level intelligence Brainiac 5 planning, he would never come up with such a lousy plan!
But okay, for the pure reason of a greast thrill, I'll let that one slip :-)
All in all I'm very satisfied with the Action run and consider this to be the best Legion story since TMK. I really hope the characters will survive the Final Crisis, no matter the cost.

Re-reading the whole arc thus far in one sitting, I'm still quite pleased by it all, and I see elements hinted at beofre they were actually intro'd.
Brainy's comments in the prior issue, regarding not having done anything with the lightning rod: he says that someone is missing thus far who can activate it until the Crisis of the 31st Century.
If the Crisis of Three Legions has already happened (or partially happened) for this Neo-Retro Legion, as I recall being implied back in Lightning Saga, then perhaps that Legion witnessed their future selves using the rod... along with XS, perhaps? She would be a likely candidate if both Barry and Bart are trapped in the Speed Force.

i'm waiting to see if there was anything to read into Brainy's comment to Supes about getting him back to his "proper" time. The word "proper" just seemed too intentional in the context, as if he wasn't taken from his proper time line.

I've enjoyed following this series. It's been nice to have the Legion I grew up with back (or one closely resembling it). I don't remember the last time that I've re-read a Legion comic so many times.

I believe Matthew is correct; that was implied, at least.
It makes sense, given how powerful he is; he'd more easily tip the scales for Kal's team or make Earthman that much more omnipotent.

Question: Could Jan undo any damage caused by Golden Boy, or would he only be able to turn the gold to another element? Talk amongst yourselves...

Omni-Craig: I don't think it's so easily undone. Given a lot of time, Element Lad could probably reverse all the changes Golden Boy made, but he couldn't, for instance, bring anyone back to life that way.
Askanipsion: Crisis on Infinite Earths is when Superboy was replaced in Legion continuity by pocket-universe Superboy, not that anyone noticed at the time. Original Legion continuity wasn't completely swept away and rebooted until Zero Hour, which was in, I believe, 1994.

Omni: I believe Jan should only be able convert the gold to another element, or possibly, with extreme concentration, into a combination of distict elements.
It was only after a near-infinite period of practice, at the Progenitor, that Jan was able to get all the requisite building blocks working together in the molocules, cells, proteins, etc. necessary to actually create and/or manipulate life.

Ahh I tried reading Zero Hour once and it made my head want to explode.
Thanks for the info!!

God I hate Countdown. Don't want to spoil it but one the timelost LS Legion members aint coming home again. And since their are only 3 (Karate Kid, Una, and Starboy/man) it kinda narrows down the choices.
