Tim Callahan's collection of essays on the Legion by various writers (including two by me!) is now available from various online booksellers. Details here.
Now, I'm obviously biased.
But I've read a draft of this book and it's quite the piece of work. No Legion fan should be without it. In fact, you may even consider buying multiple copies.
Let me also say that if you do buy it, I really hope you like it.

Thanks for posting this, Matthew. I had wondered if it had ever been published. (I should have an article in it, too, by the way.)

I've received my copy all the way over here in the UK (using Lulu).
Haven't finished it yet but it is an interesting read and recommmended for Legion Worlders

Yeah. According to Tim, it's going to go something like this:
- right now, available on Amazon and other online booksellers - later, not available on Amazon etc. anymore, but available in comic book stores - a few months after that, once the comic book stores have had their shot at it, available on Amazon and stuff again
If my understanding is correct. I'm sure Tim will have updates on his blog, and I'll also put them on mine as I learn them from him.

I received mine this past weekend, and even though I'm just getting started on it, I'm geeked.
The first two essays and Forward and Introduction all pointed out things I hadn't considered before. Can't wait to read the rest! (trying to pace myself - digest slowly...)

Mine is waiting for me at the Post Office so this thread has been handy to remind me to go pick it up!

I got it from Amazon a couple of weeks ago. Loved Julius recap of the TMK run and found Matthew E analysis of the reboot much more fascinating than the book itself, which says something! Go buy yours, if you didn't.

Got my copy yesterday and I have to say I'm totally enthusiastic about it. Just read the first essay on the Death of Lightning Lad and am so looking forward to enjoying the stuff on TMK and Levitz and and and... reading it makes me realize how much I love the Legion and how much I love reading behind-the-scenes essays.
