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

I don't think so.

But it does say something about the editorial mindset.

Why even publish this when you have a new Legion created by a writer you paid millions on contract to create that ended up being two years worth of shit?

When the initial images of this "new" Legion were released, Waid was very enthusiastic about the diverseness of this team.

Now we have a book written by him with an alt cover with the OLD Legion? OK...

The only reason the Bendis version is kicking is because of the designs used in the movie next month

I think it will reflect the story. The bottom half of the cover is the Outsiders, who are part of the solicitation, so why have the other half be a random team? Well, the Outsiders and the Legion DO share something in common...they are both the "other" teams for Superman and Batman after the Justice League.

Either way, I'll be reading it when it's available on the DC App. The rest of the series has been *REALLY* good so far.

So by now I'm sure you all have heard about James Gunn's slate of DC movies/shows that were announced. We're getting a live-action Booster Gold series for HBO Max.

Booster has a Legion ring in the comics. Assuming they keep that aspect, we may end up getting the Legion mentioned right at the start of this new DCU...

Okay this isn't recent but I don't think any of us caught it.

In 2019's DIAL H FOR HERO #7, Colleen Doran snuck in a cameo of classic Element Lad in the Jack Kirby-esque outfit he never actually wore

Good pick-up! Can you give me a hint? I'm not sure what the "classic Element Lad in the Jack Kirby-esque outfit he never actually wore" actually looks like.

The entirely green one with the swirly designs. Not the blue and green one with the arrow on it.

Panel in question...

It took nearly 3-4 years before one of us noticed.

We let Colleen down.

We let the Legion down.

We let AMERICA down.

Better late than never. Got it now. Thanks.

Am I the only one that sees a Saturn Girl analogue in that image as well? That's the debut appearance of Saturn Girl too, or at least close enough (black and yellow, but no green), and she even has the Saturn logo.

I also see the Time Trapper, but then, I see Time Trapper references everywhere.

I was thinking that looks like a Titanian character we've seen elsewhere, but can't think where.

You are right. She is reminiscent of Saturn Girl, especially with the logo. That could be Time Trapper although Raven also occurs to me. I keep thinking the guy with green radiation around his hands is familiar too but I can't think of who.

Hey everyone, so I have some frustrating news.

Another victim of HBO Max's heartless tax writeoffs was a new Scooby Doo animated movie featuring Krypto the Super-Dog. The movie's been leaked in full online, though. I've seen it myself and can confirm that there is a cameo of the Toon!Legion from the 2000s included in this movie.

As seen here.

That's... well, pretty much it.

There's a brief background thing in the Hall of Justice of a bottle of water with a Legion label on it, but that image is it for their appearance.

We keep seeming to fall in to worse and worse timelines for the last 10 years...

Are you still talking about LSH?

LOL, no LSH just keeps getting the shaft the more we go down the timelines...

This news drought is awful. Nothing for weeks. These delays for Justice Society seem to be holding everything back, since that is where the Legion is likely to be re-introduced if Geoff Johns' interviews are to be believed.

But maybe something here:

In the preview image for the Dreamer story, she appears to be having a vision of several distant characters who look like variations of Dream Girl (her descendant, presumably).

White leotard, check.
White hair, check.
Knee-high boots, check.

And one on a throne. No dialogue in the preview though.

Linnya (modern day Phantom Girl) had a minor appearance in Flash 799 today along with her Terrifics teammates (and a one panel cameo in 798 I didn't mention before).

She did nothing of consequence, but it is nice to know she hasn't been forgotten I guess.

Looks like the next issue of Justice Society is out tomorrow, and has at least one page in the Legion's time. Hopefully there is a bit more.

So it turns out that image was from an older issue. No Legion references in JSA #4.

For what its worth, they are implying Superman was Superboy as a youth again. There is a panel in an issue of Doom Patrol where they visit Smallville and there is a "Welcome to Smallville Home of Superboy" sign. That counts as the Legion right?
