Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Long Live the Legion! Preview of LSH #25

Hey everyone! Newsarama has a preview of some DC titles for December 28th.
Among them, there is LSH #25!

Mon-el vs Supergirl!
http://www.newsarama.com/dcnew/Dec06/previews/dec28th.html

Saw it! Very tantalizing. So much to chew on:

1) The Legionnaires are held inside HQ by forcefields?

2) The anti-lead serum will be based on kryptonite (inner fanboy cannot wait to see how/if Waid justifies this).

3) Cos's comments about berserker death rage, or somesuch, indicate that the Legion is familiar with Daxamites. One might conclude (ala Matthew) that berserker death rages are why Daxamites don't leave Daxam, which would explain why Daxamites don't already rule the galaxy, or at least police it.

4) More classic Brainy and Cos banter. When are these two going to realize that they are made for each other and become the Legion's leading couple?

Damn Barry's art looks great! I don't even hate Dream Boy.

This helps make up for the fact that the issue will be delayed a day because of the holiday.

You missed one. What about Imra nearly saying Superwoman? Something else else still to come for Kara or a whole new character?

I thought we weren't getting our books until Thursday but Diamond is still listing the date for this week as tomorrow, 12/27. Not sure what to expect now.

at my local comics-shop, they told me it's on thursday. The same goes for next week.

What a fun LSH preview! I thought Brainy's line "Say..have you met the blonde?" was kinda weird considering how he was all up on Mon-El's back. I didn't know if he was introducing himself or not.

Scrolling down, Cooke's P'Gell looked absolutely yummy.

Man, I can't wait to read this issue and yet I have to wait until after January 20th... oh well, patience is a virtue.

And I have to add that I'm really happy Barry Kitson is back on full pencil duty, the art looks great!!!

Does it say bad things about me that I was rooting for Lar to beat the ever loving crap out of Superbrittney?

Considering Brainy's proximity to Mon, I think that panel should instead read, "Mmm, you smell like mangoes."

Very nice - and six pages! I like Dream Boy.

The inks and colors are good, too.

"It's only dangerous if you fail."

Looking good.

Another where Kitson's Tinya has knocked me off of my chair!

And go Lar!

we can see in the first page that Brainiac already has his plan in mind when he is questionning Imra. He doesn't even let her finish her sentence.

And from the reactions on the messages boards, i can say that fans and readers of the Legion in France are happy that Barry is back full time too!

i really like the second page where the fight start. It looks so convincing. The effects and the expressions are very well done, wow. I can't keep my eyes off Mon-El face! He's looking straight at us!
And the movement of the hair of Mon-El and Supergirl due to what happen in the panel. I like it.

I also would like to thank Barry again for his superb rendition of the characters. Supergirl really look like a real young woman in this panel!
But i'm speaking in general too. Each one of them is different and recognizable, they are really depicted greatly.

And it does not look like photos, like we can often see nowadays, but natural.
One of the best pages i've seen! Congrats!

I think having Green K be a component of the antitoxin is a great idea, if only for the fact that it's so rare it will justify not mass-producing it for the rest of Daxam (I hated the "They're all Xenophobes and don't want it" line form the last boot).

Hmmm. . . not exactly the method used for controlling the Daxamite problem.

He doesn't have to; Green K as a key component of the anti-lead serum is Silver Age. It's mentioned in Adventure Comics 375, which also features the 1st appearance of the original Wanderers.
