Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Adventure Comics #521 (Preview/Spoilers)

Preview\'s up!

(Posting new issue topics makes me feel sexy! )

Jan's blue and pink costume *might* be growing on me. It's not the blue and green, but it's not bad. I like the reminder that this isn't the threeboot Jan, who had to touch things and whose transmutations were only temporary.

Classic Jan just points, and if he transmutes something, it's forever, unless he changes it back. Nice to have the powerhouse back!

Tellus' telekinesis sure has gotten buff. It used to be anything over a couple hundred pounds was too much for him, now he's moving hundreds of tons around like it's no big thing.

I love Tasmia's indignation that she didn't get picked for the ring. Love her or hate her, that's classic Shady, right there.

I love how on that cover the Legion look about as excited to see the GLC invading their book as I do.

The rest of the preview looked pretty good.

So, the new Green Lantern is someone within...

could it be?

Shirley the space-maid is the new GL?!?!?

It's not someone *inside* the HQ, it's...

Fortress Lad!

I wish I could Photoshop that cover to show Mon-El stifling a yawn, and maybe Phantom Girl doodling on a mini-Omnicom, or something...

Interesting that Shady was miffed that she was overlooked - is that because she's not actually there and she's an illusion to placate Earth Man...?

JAN!! JAN!! JAN!!

and invisible Kid's new costume....not bad....hmmm...

which legionnaire to be a new GL? hmm no idea....maybe Sensor Girl? nah I dont think so...Vi? nah....Ayla? nah...Colossal Boy? nah...Chameleon Girl??? hmm there have been some Durlan GLs in the past such as Von Daggle...hmmm maybe. okay I bet this one - Chameleon Girl!

Oh, Shady's just pissed because her butt-floss panties are riding up on her again (page 2).

I liked this preview actually and can't wait to read the whole thing after work today.
It's great to have Tellus back in action again and Element Lad looked great in his new costume! Now if they can just give Nura a new look too ... something reminiscent of her current classic silver/white costume but with more of an active, contemporary feel to it (perhaps like Saturn Girl's but not as busy).

Earth Man still grates on my nerves. I will never get used to him as a member of this team. Sorry.

Bouncing Boy for Green Lantern! Go Chuck!!!

Could still be Ultra Boy, like I was thinking months ago. This looks like a great issue, and it's nice to see Invisible Kid get some panel time.

No need to be sorry, I feel the same way. It takes more than being SUPER to be a HERO. There's nothing heroic about E-man.

Mejor dibujo.

Got it today (Go Canada)

Spoiler for the GL:

<span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">It's Mon-El! And he leaves the Legion! Guess he's the odds on favourite to win the leadership now if Paul had to drastically alter his plans like he says.</span></span>

*GASP!!*

Now that I have read the spoiler, it is quite obvious.

Also, I now SO HOPE that person wins the leadership election.

There's no way that will stick! That can't be a permanent thing! That person's not from Sector 2814 anyway!

whooo hoooo at first I did thought about Lar to follow Sodom's footsteps....but decided it was too obvious....and then went with Chameleon Girl. ah yeah!!! you go Lar Gand!!!!! :-) can't wait! can't wait to get an action figure of a Green Mon!!

Well, I'm more than happy!
In your face, Tasmia!

AND that doesn't mean that none of the other Legionnaires can be GLs!
Dyogene is just getting the hang of things and he'll still need an Earth sector GL, like Chuck and a Bismol GL, like Tenzil.
And Durlan sector GLs, like Gim and Yera!
I'd add a Zoe and James and Dag and Devlin and Kent and Grev and April and Blok and . . .

A whole new GREEN LANTERN LEGION CORP in the 31st century!
whoooohooo!

Bite your tongue!

Well, I did not see THAT coming! By that I mean that Monel got the job of being Green Lantern.
I'm not sure how I feel about it. I'm neither thrilled nor very disappointed, just kind of 'blah' about it.
I guess I didn't see Lar getting it because a) he's already powerful enough and doesn't need the added power boost and b)he's already had the spotlight recently with his whole 21th century adventures. Maybe that's why he WAS chosen after all (plus that old Adult Legion story that had Lar roaming the universe).
I also figured that since he was in the lead to win the Legion election then maybe,hopefully someone else would get the ring.
I just don't want this to turn into the Green Lantern of the 31st Century *starring the Legion of Super-Supporting Cast*

The rest of the story was pretty good. I don't even have a guess at this point about who the antagonist is that attacked Wildfire and Dawnstar. Who could possibly scare people to death, literally? Darkseid maybe? There's my guess then.

The art keeps getting better and better with each issue. The new costumes on Element Lad and Invisible Kid look great as well.

*YaWn*

If Mon-El won the Legion leader election, it may have seriously messed with Paul's wish to write him off-screen, so that he can continue focusing so heavily on Earth-Man.

Mon as leader *and* Green Lantern, will force him to spend a little less time on the adventures of Earth-Man, hopefully.

DC spent a year building up Mon-El in the Superman books. Is this their way of giving him his own title:
Mon-El: Green Lantern in the 31st century

I think we have to look at the bigger character arc. This is twice now Mon-El has shown he has the 'warrior spirit' that Tasmia says she wanted in Earth Man. Also, we still don't know why they broke up.
