Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Recent Legion-verse sightings in DCU proper

At the very least wouldn't an All-Star Legion by Morrison be awesome?

That would indeed be interesting.

Though would Frank Quitely be a good choice for penciller? Then it would just feel like a sequel to All-Star Superman.

I think they essentially did an All-Star Legion already. It was called "Superboy's Legion".

I truly doubt a Morrison take on the Legion would have as many bright smiling faces or end on a note of youthful optimism as Superboy's Legion.

I don't know, Morrison's on a "good guys win" kick recently, and has his share of upbeat endings (Vinamarama, Joe the Barbarian, Seven Soldiers). Even Final Crisis and All-Star end with an optimistic, if bittersweet outlook.

Yeah, I would go further to say that's really just about his big thing now, especially with superhero comics. He said it most succinctly in Supergods when he said that "positivity's the new punk rock."

There's 2 extremely AR Legion references in last week's AME-COMI GIRLS #4:

1. Lex Luthor's giant robot is powered by a baby sun-eater.

2. When something resembling a Time Bubble crashes onto the Kent's farm, Power Girl wonders if it's an unwelcomed visit from the LSV.

Morrison's farewell Action Comics arc gets another chapter: http://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/01/17/grant-morrison-gets-one-more-issue-of-action-comics/
So that probably means more Adult Legion, righ?

No mention of two Legion-y (or, at least, L.E.G.I.O.N.-y) appearances in the first issue of Threshold?

Stealth in the main story and Pulsar Stargrave in the back-up.

Okay, this isn't DCU, but I don't want to start another thread:

Imra Ardeen of Saturn is mentioned in a story by H.G. Stratman, "Neighborhood Watch". She votes to annihilate all Earthlings. (Way to go, Iron Butt!)

The story was read on the podcast Starship Sofa #275 and appeared in Analog Science Fiction and Fact January/February 2013—pages 94-102.

I checked the author's website. He's a cardiologist but doesn't express any particular love for the Legion, just sci fi.

Action Comics #17 is part two of three of the 'adult' Legion crossover.

ECHO returns to rear up its ugly head around Teen Titans #23 as the team travels to the 31st Century to uncover Bart's origin--to make matters even more strange--Vibe may play a part in these events...

The 30th Century Science Police & ECHO make an appearance in Superboy #19 (total Dreck). Apparently the Legion is just about the only group in the DC Universe that can't travel in time.

For those buying it digitally the first part of the Legion in Smallville series went on Comixology today.

No Legionnaires as yet though but a nice bit between Booster Gold and Blue Beetle.

Well with the ECHO storyline still going, perhaps there will be a Legion still going by #23. Will this mean Legion Lost gets to go home too.

Apparently in a special prequel MAN OF STEEL comic, available only to people who buy movie tickets from Wal-Mart, Kara must battle a murderous Dev-Em after he has killed everyone else aboard their space ark.

As of Smallville Season 11 #49 The Legionnaires who have appeared so far are Brainiac 5, Lightning Lad, Supergirl, Wildfire, Dawnstar, Sun Boy, Star Boy, Karate Kid, Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl and Catspaw.

Ferro Lad & Sun Boy also had one appearance each.

Good story with great Daniel HDR art. I just hope they collect the whole "Argo" story in one trade.

Is this Argo as in where Supergirl comes from? (depending on the Supergirl...)

The Argo from the Smallville show...yes, kinda.

It's a thousand years after Clark defeated Zod and the Kandorians in season 9. He teleported them there and they named the planet Argo. Supergirl, having traveled to the 31st century at the end of season 10, has rejoined with her fellow Kryptonians. Renaming the planet "New Krypton", they have tried to joined the United Planets, but in vain.

HTH

The latest issue of Smallville shows a flashback scene including Dawnstar, Wildfire, Karate Kid, Ferro Lad, Supergirl, Star Boy and maybe Sun Boy, although they aren't seen again in the issue, so it at least suggests that the 'Legion' of the Smallville-verse includes more than Garth, Rokk, Imra and their version of Brainiac 5.

Could you work out who the woman on the far left was?

I am presuming Jeckie even though it looks nothing like her but could it be a new Legionnaire?

Oh wow, turns out there were three panels showing Legionnaires (other than later appearances by Garth, Rokk, Brainy and Imra).

Bottom of page 2; Brainiac 5, Supergirl, Wildfire, and five other figures, mostly seen from behind.

If I had to guess, the one on the far right is Imra before she cuts her hair (since she's got short hair in the 'present day' of this issue). I got nothin' on the other four, 'though.

Bottom of page 3; Dawnstar, Wildfire, Karate Kid, Ferro Lad, Star Boy and Supergirl.

Top of page 4; Star Boy, Supergirl, Wildfire, Dawnstar, maybe Sun Boy?

Ah! I think we are talking about different issues; I presume you have the latest paper copy?

In this weeks digital issue there is a large group scene that features what is essentially the line up circa GDS as well as Ferro, Chuck and Lu.

But there is a blond woman in red to the left of the panel next to Timber Wolf who doesn't seem to be Kara or Imra so might be Jeckie or even, potentially, Thunder.

In the issue you mean I had wondered whether the woman with the tiara in the group shot is actually a white Shady and agree that the guy on page 4 is probably Sun Boy even though the costume looks more like Captain Comet.
