As you may have guessed since you haven't read posts by me, I'm new here. And, since this seems to be the place to introduce oneself...

Hi. I'm Neemers, a brand-new Legion fan. I've read a few of the comics before that I could get from the local library, but none of them really grabbed my attention until the Threeboot. That one grabbed my attention to the point where it's the first graphic novel that I've gone out and bought when I could just re-order it from the library, ever.

I'm caught up on the comics now, and eagerly awaiting #25 this Thurday. Reading your posts has been a blast for me, since almost everything I know about previous versions of the Legion is from blurbs on Wikipedia. Speaking of which, if anyone here was responsible for creating those, you did a great job.

I've written some fan fiction before for other groups and suspect that I will for the Legion eventually, but at the moment I don't think I know enough to try anything but a few short one-shots. I've done a little art as well, but when the most advanced program I have available most of the time is MS Paint, there are limits to what can be done.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you better, and joining the upcoming discussions. See ya later!

Hi Neemers! Glad you found your way here to Legion World. As you're starting to discover, people here are very knowledgeable about the Legion (all boots) and also very friendly. So don't be afraid to ask questions!

Glad to see you jumping in so have fun and welcome!

Long Live The Legion! flag

Thanks all, for both the welcome and offer of info. Tekwych, I've been to the Legion Wiki once but had a little trouble finding my way around it. I suspect it's just because I was in a rush.

Welcome aboard Neemers.

I'm looking forward to seeing a story or two and even if you only have MS paint go ahead and post.

All the best,

John

Greetings and salutations!

Here at LW, we have fans of all different Legion eras, and of all different "experience" levels. All are welcome! Make yourself at home and dive on in!

Feel free to ask questions;I've yet to see anyone remark snidely to those seeking information that some oldbies take for granted. In Legion fandom, there have always been new folks joinging those who came before - we were all newbies once!

Welcome to Legion World Neemers. And Welcome to the Legion.

There is the mandatory non-obligatory limerick in the Spaceopoly forum that you have to write (if you want to) wink

Welcome to Legion World.

(1) Your life will never be the same.
(2) In two years or so, the night terrors will stop or at least you'll stop losing sleep over them.

Quis, don't all newbies have to post on the Victorian bear-kissing thread, and can somebody ask the new kid to find the lumber-stretcher?

Lad Boy, I think you are confusing the Victorian bear kissing thread with the Stupid Jacobian Elephant tricks thread.

Don't forget to familiarize yourself with the LMB-Boot, as well, Neemers! Many of us participate in our own shared universe that's inspired by all versions of the LSH, but with our own characters--the Legion of Message Board Posters!

It's a really well-developed universe. Just check out Cobalt Kid's "A Written History of the LMBP" thread in Encyclopedia Galactica and our latest tag-team mega-story, "omnia mutantur nos et mutamur in illis" - 52 days after INVASION " over in Bits---if you dare! laugh


Still "Lardy" to my friends!

Aside to Neemers: we are really are like Earth from "the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy", mostly harmless.

Scared him? Geez, what would he have done before we abolished the nude audition requirement last summer?
