Nah...the real leader probably got fed up with him and sent him on some distant mission. Dreamy just got swept up in it all. (Although I wonder if that's his lab in ruins.)

I think that's Legion headquarters....if this means we get rid of the mired-in-nostalgia upside-down rocket design and get something new and actually *futuristic*, I am all for it!

The Rocket brings back a whole lot of nice memories and moods for me. I guess I'd be in the camp that hopes it stays.
I wouldn't even mind an issue where Legionnaires wear some "retro" uniforms ala the sports teams and even acknowledge that they are wearing retros or are doing something just for fun. A little fun and play would be nice.

It wouldn't be the first time the Fatal Five destroyed the Upside Down Rocketship...

I don't know--I think something about the rocketship HQ is just iconic. I don't remember if they're doing this now, but I'd like if they upped the teseract usage and just make it this huge base inside the rocket.

The tesseract idea works really well with the Silver Age notion that their HQ was particularly vulnerable to "phantoms" from the fourth-dimension.

There seems to be a lot of "earth shaking" or explosions going on with these covers of the new Fatal Five attacking. A new use of his powers for Mano, or are we going to be introduced to new members?

I thought I saw that scene in the Threeboot Legion?
If they did replace one of the Fatal Five, who? I think only Tharok and Persuader have been "confirmed" recently. Would they replace Validus given the confirmed status of Garridan Ranzz?
posted
Since Levitz made it a point to show Validus exists again, I imagine the behemoth will be making a reappearance. I suppose it could be the Emerald Eye attacking ... it seems unlikely some version of the Empress won't show up considering an Emerald Eye story was the last thing Paul and Keith collaborated on.
Not sure what overall opinion is, but I'm still grooving to Giffen's retro art style. Hopefully that appeal lasts in regular serial format for me. I'll sure miss Portela and hope he's still utilized on and off.
