Well, that looks like fun, although I can't imagine Harmonia going shopping with the kids.

Hope we see more of 31st century Barcelona than we saw of Istanbul!

How does DC choose where these previews are posted? Do sites apply for the privilege of hosting some preview pages? It seems to be a different site every month.

I was hoping they'd ask that tree dude in Glorith's quarters for help.

Hmm, I was kinda hoping that it would be the 21st Century Barcelona ending up in the 31st--I thought all these people from the past finding themselves in this future Earth would have more dramatic potential, but what we do see here does look pretty cool.

No espionage squad potential there. See Harmonia Li's not so smart.

It would've been cool though if the tree dude went apeshit on them ... as if he was a magical security system.

Wonderful!
We have another issue of Portela's art.
Good gift for Christmas.

I like Glorith's jammies. It looks like she's wearing Chlorophyll Kid's bottoms and Polar Boy's top, which probably makes sense, since she left Sorcerer's World without any carry-on baggage...

I think Dragonwing was explaining to Harmonia that Glorith was going to go shopping with her and Chemical Kid, and that's why they think it's odd that she's just up and vanished on them, since Glorith isn't much of a one to flake out and 'ditch' them.

I suspect the people wanting to burn Glorith are from some period in the past, since they aren't speaking Interlac.

I presumed she went back in time due to the title of the issue but:

She must have traveled to some alternate reality where the Sagrada Familia is next door to the Casa Batlló and they were built 400 years earlier during the Spanish Inquisition.

It looked like Wildfire to me. heh heh. Maybe the Legion Lost crew is back.

Or its his brother from the alternate 5YG future, trying to horn in on things again.

It *is* a 'time storm,' and Legion Lost *is* ending.

I would be impressed if Paul is already setting up the return of the missing Legionnaires with this time storm thingie.

I kind of figured it would take six months or so of them hanging out in comic-book limbo before DC got it's crap together enough to hand off seven characters from the end of one series to another series, even if Legion Lost 16 ends with them 'going home' on the last page...

SPOILERS FOLLOW

So, having read the whole issue, I'd say it continues the trend of good, but not great, Legion stories we've been having over the past few months. We get quite a bit of action of Legionnaires fighting dinosaurs, cave men, tanks, the Spanish Inquisition, etc. Basically, the whole point of the story is to establish that someone big and powerful wants Glorith dead, and thus lured her to Barcelona where, for some reason, her powers cause a time storm. Now, what big, bad villain noted for manipulating the time stream might possibly want Glorith dead? hmmm

Anyway, Glorith manages to avoid getting splorped.

Also, Cham invites Ayla and Vi to his room to discuss his suspicions that there's a reason that they are failing in their attempts to prevent the Fatal Five from assembling. And the Fatal Five is notably minus on member in the nice group shot we get of them (unless they're back to counting the Eye as a member).

I love the idea that by 3112, the Sagrada Familia will have grown to the point where it covers the entire city of Barcelona.

(If anyone isn't familiar with this building, it's been under construction since 1882 and is projected to be finished in 2026. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagrada_Fam%C3%ADlia.)

Beautiful art...Portela is great at futuristic backgrounds. I'm going to miss him.

Who wants Glorith dead, besides The Time Trapper, unless the Fatal Five is behind this too. It was nice to finally see Glorith in some kind of action sequence, even if it was basically her being rescued.

I didn't like the scene between Cham and Vi. I always figured they would interact with a little more....warmth. Oh well.

I love the clearness and light of all of the panels.
nod

Why would any experienced Legionnaire surmise that one of them would just disappear on their own?
Especially, given recent events with Brainy and Dreamy being abducted?
Call Blok and Mysa, for goodness sake!

You can tell I haven't read the book yet, huh?

It is intriguing that it's Harmonia Li beating the 'nothing is wrong, go back to sleep!' drum.

It's fashionable to bash her for what happened to Titan, and for her horning her way onto the team like a hornless horning thing. And I'm certainly oh-so-fashionable, in that respect, but what if there's actually something sinister about her, and it's not just all us old fogeys resenting her for not being Nightwind?

What if she's messing with Brainy's head, somehow, and her fascination with time shenanigans isn't just leftover from her time at the Time Institute, and her presence whenever Brainy was testing the temporal nature of Glorith's magical shields wasn't just 'oh, and Harmonia hangs out in Brainy's lab for no darn reason.'

What if she refused a Green Lantern not because the Guardians are the 'least wise of the immortals,' but because if she let that ring make itself comfy on her finger, it might analyze her and discover something... alarming.

What if the name Glorith was chosen to make the character of Glorith a red herring, to distract us from Harmonia Li?

I would kind of love it if Paul had been planning something hinky from the very beginning, and was setting things in place to give us a shocking twist worthy of M. Night Shamalamadingdong.

So, I'm a little puzzled that Glorith doesn't seem to be wearing her flight ring when abducted, but she has it in Barcelona.

Okay, no big deal. Artists forget to draw flight rings. But... can't they track her through it?

Was Glorith using her flight ring to avoid the flames instead of her power an homage or a rip-off of when Dream Girl did the same thing many versions ago? This was back when it was being established that Dreamy's willpower was one of the strongest of all the legionnaires.

I finished to read Legion 15.
Fantastic art, good story.
Who are the New Fatal Five?
Validus seems to be the same.(With another origin maybe..)
Is The Persuador with a new look or is another character with the atomic axe?
The eye of Ekron has a new Empress with the same costume from the horrible annual.
Is the poor girl from Orando or Sarya has returns in all her glory?
The guy in blue....is Mano, Tharok or an all-new member?
But I'm a little tired to only see The Legion of Brainaic 5, Mon-el, Ultra Boy and Cosmic Boy, with the New Kids....
And only one page of Ayla, Salu y Reep.
