Here is a preview of the different stories in this special including the one featuring Superboy, starring the Legion of Super-Heroes: https://aiptcomics.com/2020/06/26/dc-first-look-dc-cybernetic-summer-1/ Last edited by Querl Dox; 06/27/20 04:08 AM.

Wonder what any new readers (I ope there are some) will think of that. Looks like it will mostly be about the Superboy robot (not?) coping with the mess Superboy and the Legion have left behind so maybe not much Legion. Still has me intrigued though. It seems like Liz Erikson has been mostly an editor. The only other writing credit I could find was for a Catwoman story in DC's recent Crimes of Passion anthology so no idea what to expect.

That's a good question. I hope they add a little introduction just introducing the concept of alternate realities, blah blah... But yeah, I'm looking forward to this. The preview looks great, a touch of whimsy and some nice Silver-Agey elements! The Continuing Adventures of the Postboot Legion! You can also check out the Recap Thread here.

I hope both versions sell well as I don't want Bendis's version to die for the same reasons the Threeboot did. The Legion needs new fans or else it risks becoming a relic of the past.

Very good points, Emily. Lately, I had already been thinking that perhaps it's time that both Legion fandom and DC simply accept that the Legion's stuck in the past, and expand on that instead. Still "Fickles" to my friends.

Yeah I haven't been enjoying the Bendisboot but if it gets killed off that only proves the point about DC not caring about the Legion.
