Well, shit.

That was about the most Legion averse interview about a Legion title I've ever read.

You'd think people would do a little research.

I didn't think it was BAD. He doesn't seem to be a super big Legion fan, but that hasn't turned into a dealbreaker for me.

Oh definitely not. It's usually that the creators have SOME connection to the characters...

New "Legion of Super-Heroes" images spotlight the Legionnaires!


A diverse array of Legionnaires get the spotlight – including Bouncing Boy, Dawnstar, Invisible Kid and Arms Fall Off Boy – in four new images from LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, the latest DC Universe Movie, coming to Digital, 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack and Blu-ray on February 7, 2023 from Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment.

Welcome to the 31st century and the Legion Academy, where a new generation hones their powers with hopes of joining the Legion of Super-Heroes. Devastated by tragedy, Supergirl struggles to adjust to her new life on Earth. Taking her cousin Superman’s advice, Supergirl leaves their space-time to attend the Academy. There, she quickly makes new friends, as well as a new enemy with old ties: Brainiac 5. But a nefarious plot lurks in the shadows – the mysterious group known as the Dark Circle seeks a powerful weapon held in the Academy’s vault. Find out if the budding heroes can rise to the challenge in this all-new DC Universe Movie!

Attached are four new images from Legion of Super-Heroes, along with their suggested descriptions:

- LOSH – SG-Bouncing Boy-Mon-El

Bouncing Boy, voiced by Ely Henry (Players, Smallfoot), offers a little unsolicited insight to Supergirl, while Mon-El watches during an early scene in Legion of Super-Heroes. Supergirl is voiced by Meg Donnelly (American Housewife, The Winchesters), and Mon-El is voiced by Yuri Lowenthal (He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Spider-Man).

- LOSH – Dawnstar illuminates

Dawnstar activates her other-worldly powers, much to the surprise of some of her Legion colleagues, in a key scene from Legion of Super-Heroes. Voiced by Cynthia Hamidi (FBI).

- LOSH – SG-Invisible Kid

Invisible Kid makes sure he’s very visible to Supergirl as they have their opening introduction in Legion of Super-Heroes. Zeno Robinson (Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons) voices the always entertaining Invisible Kid, while Supergirl is voiced by Meg Donnelly (American Housewife, The Winchesters).

- LOSH – SG-Arms Fall Off Boy

The ever-popular Arms Fall Off Boy demonstrates his unique powers for Supergirl in a scene from Legion of Super-Heroes. In the distance, (from left), Mon-El, Invisible Kid, Bouncing Boy and two-thirds of Triplicate Girl watch the young Legionnaire introduce himself. Arms Fall Off Boy is voiced by Ben Diskin (He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Muppet Babies, Digimon Adventure), and Supergirl is voiced by Meg Donnelly (American Housewife, The Winchesters).

these scenes are cool... is that Dawnstar using tracking powers, or did they make her like that other animated Dawnstar with light powers? (tracking powers also make sense in the context that some Legionnaires are missing)

And Invisible Kid - love seeing Jacques be a bit flirty lol

I have a suspicion that there will be some pushback from the Negative Fandom Zone regarding Star Bright Dawnstar.

But I, for one, really like the look.


Next time we have a DC/Marvel crossover, I want it to take place in the Hostessverse

I think I could come around to bright wing Dawnstar eventually, I can definitely see why they'd go that route for animation instead of using natural wings that are less flashy visually.

It may be in my head but I feel like artists have been drawing Jacques hotter since the retroboot and I am not complaining...I really like his look here!

Part of me feels a bit cynical about racebent Triplicate Girl...as a general practice I am 100% onboard with diversifying predominantly white casts, but it just feels like a bit of a "throw it at the wall and see what sticks" approach if they're just gonna pick a random character/s to do it with in every different incarnation of the team, especially when a bunch of POC or POC-coded characters already exist that aren't being used. This is what's gonna happen when no creative staff ever look beyond the 80s for inspiration though I guess!

I'm sure we will get a reasonable explanation about the visual brightness of Dawny's powers. smile

Saw the movie and liked it. No matter which version of the Legion you like, even Bendis, there is something here for you. I wish they would go this way with the Legion in the comics.

I've enjoyed every clip I've seen released so far. I have to say I'm looking forward to this, but I'll be traveling on release day, so I'll have to embargo myself for a couple days.

Wow, they really went all out including characters from the later years (Quislet, Tellus, Polar Boy, Comet Queen), Reboot (Kinetix, Monstress, Gates, Kid Quantum, etc.) and even oddballs like Arms-Fall-Off Boy or Power Boy or Color Kid, or rarely seen Legionnaires like Chemical Kid, Ferro Lad or Tyroc! (And even Gold Lantern, from the latest run.) Neat to see everyone there! (Except Atmos. BOO!) smile
