I agree that it's Yolanda taking out Dirk. She seems to be in a full bodysuit and has an over the head mask. To be honest, the first time I looked at this page, it took me a moment to recognize Sun Boy. But it is a pretty picture.
I also mentioned on Facebook where I first saw this page (But thanks for the others) that I imagine Brainy and Mr. Terrific were screaming equations at each other. I like the pairing, but having them charge at each other swinging fists seems off.

I'd expect them to use more ranged attacks, if getting into a fight! This Brainy still has his forcefield belt too, right?

I think I see his forcefield around him. I would actually expect them to stay back and coordinate tactics. (Although one might be Don't go up against your opposite)

Hey guys, check out the Zero Hour Special for a Legionnaire we haven't seen in a while. *wink* If I said he could be igNORGed, I'd be LYLEing.

Unlikely, since they really only show up for the epilogue, and it looks like next issue will be focused on wrapping up other plotlines.

Yep, and the fact that this universe is just a "yet another Earth" means that the Legion won't get formed here. Still it was good seeing Jenni from the block.

Mark Waid gives a brief interview about his upcoming 12-issue Action Comics run. https://screenrant.com/superman-action-comics-dc-all-in-mark-waid-interview/And has this to say about Mon-El's upcoming appearance: MW: It's always harder to do a real formal hero's journey with a character like Superman, because he's not going to change significantly. There's just not the room for these long standing 85 year-old characters to have radical changes in who they are. Nor should there be! Because we all know what makes Superman Superman at this point.
But on a structural level, yeah, it's Inferno. It is meeting his Virgil, who is Mon-El, who is a stranger from another planet much like Krypton. A kid that he met when he was a teenager, thinking that they were brothers because this guy had amnesia, but he had Kryptonian powers. Maybe they’re brothers, turns out they're not. But then Mon-El is poisoned, and the only way to save him is to throw him in the Phantom Zone. So he's been there ever since, and Superman has been trying to figure out a way to heal Mon-El. Has always failed.

*Superman suddenly realizing he forgot all about Mon-El because the last 13 years have been a living hell thanks to the Flash and that blue moron who won't wear pants* CRAP!

The Legion gets name-dropped by Darkseid in the upcoming DC All-In Special. LinkAt least Darkseid remembers them?

Did Brainy indirectly invent something bad again?

I'm wondering if it's a reference to the Miracle Machine and just misattributing it to the Legion as creators.

Guys, you're gonna want to pick up DC All In Special. The end result of Darkseid creating his own universe is that it leads to him gaining his own Legion

On the plus side there's absolute no hint of the Bendisboot in this one, and Dan Mora apparently watched the cartoon from 06.

I don't think I'd spend money on this for just the one splash page of Legion content, but apparently this version will be playing a major role in the DCU in the near future? Interesting that .
