Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Dan Parent wants to write the Legion

I'm not at all familiar with his work, as it's mostly for Archie Comics, and I haven't bought an Archie book for 40 years!

But I do hope that perhaps his association with Archie might mean that the term "Archie Legion" will finally change from an insult to a compliment. The early PZH Legion holds up pretty darn well.

Also, he created the Archie Universe's first openly LGBTQ+ character, Kevin Keller. That's certainly a good sign.

Sorry there's no links to relevant articles, I'm paranoid about keeping my phone virus-free. But here's his Wikipedia entry.

He might have an interesting "fresh take" on the series. Can't be much worse than the Bendis run, so there's that.

Is the term considered a pejorative? I never know anymore,

I think it depends on the intent of the one using it
