Just a reminder for those of us here in the UK that the Legion starts tonight on the Cartoon Network at 6.00pm. Repeated at 8.00pm. As far as I know Monday through to Friday gives us the first 5 episodes.
I need to check to see what happens after then when I get home tonight.

Well I had managed to sneak a peak at episodes thanks to the wonders of the internet. It has been a bit grainy and jerky though. So now seeing it on a big screen in clear high definition is a huge bonus.
It still gives me a thrill to see the legion on the TV. I can not believe that after all this time we see them moving and talking on the screen.
In terms of the episode it was fun, I like Clark’s personality and the way Legion has gone back to get him. I always said the best way to get Superboy back in the Legion was to get him at this point in life and take him to the future to give him the training he needs to get in order to be a hero here in the present.
The series looks to be fun, exciting, and fast moving. It is reminding me of the silver age legion where things happen and you just have to accept it and go with the flow rather than over analyse or get tied up in continuity knots.

Oh and the Legion got a mention in one of the national TV magazines last week and was shown in the Cartoon Network comic this month.

OK I just sat through one of the best hours of my TV watching life. Parts one and two are absolute old school brilliance. This is a non stop roller coaster ride involving large numbers of the Legion, the subs and the fatal five. I hardly know where to start. so I am going to take this over to the Sundown thread and discuss loads of spoliers and stuff there.
