Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Why love the legion?

For some reason my mind makes a distinction between the legion with and without Superboy/man. I’m curious if this is the case for anyone else. Honestly, I prefer my legion sans Clark Kent. I really don’t know why. It’s not an issue with him having too many powers because I like Mon-El just fine. Something about him just makes the stories feel different. It feels like it’s Superboy and the legion, not Superboy as a member of the legion.

I have a similar feeling, BKL. Part of it may be that I grew up with the Reboot Legion, which had minimal Superboy in it. Part of it may be that I then read the Adventure Era next, which naturally had a lot of Superboy.

I think the Legion Toon did a decent balance between having Superboy as part of the Legion, without making the others just background characters…
