Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Legion in JLU Cartoon/Legion Series...Official Thread

did anyone catch the sneak preview? I missed it I think.

According to an ad they just ran, it's airing at 11 am during the Batman show. That's a few hours away on the west coast.

during the ad, there was a brief shot of Lightning Lad fighting a werewolf-type creature that I hope is not supposed to be Timber Wolf. It looked more like Furball than the Timber Wolf we've seen.

YES!! I saw it during the commercial by accident while I was setting the Heroclix game up on the coffeetable. When I saw it I immediately ran to get the Heroclix of Saturn Girl, Live Wire, Superboy, Brainiac 5 alongside the custom-made Bouncing Boy (made from Heroclix's Blob) and Timber Wolf (made from SabreTooth). I am so tinkled pink! yeah it starts at 11am! My friend and I will start the game at 10 am. So when it comes, I will tell my friend to take a time out and introduce those Heroclix Legionnaires to animated Legionnaires! Kid at Heart strikes again!

Also, Lightning Lad looks SOOOOOO COOOL and dynamic! I bet you all that LL is gonna love that!

It went too fast to catch everything. What I remember is the scene where they're all on the ground and LL flies up. He says "He better leave some for me" or something like that. Then we see Superboy, er, Superman being attacked by the Emerald Eye and LL tells him to use his super-breath but Supes doesn't understand him, so he adds "Think cold and blow". Then Supes freezes the Eye and/or Empress.

Maybe it was just my imagination but I thought I saw a little "Tinkerbell" figure next to LL for a second. Could it have been Vi?

Someone from the ToonZone forum uploaded the video to YouTube. It's only 38 seconds long, though, and shows part of a battle between the Legion and the Fatal Five (in particular, Lightning Lad, Superman, and Emerald Empress).

It aired at the 5-minute mark of the Batman show, if anyone wants to try to get a better version.

(Tromium, it was your imagination, that was Superman in the background, not Violet.)

Say, that looks fun. It looks like Young Superman doens't know all his powers yet.

looks good to me too!

I just watched what I had recorded on my TiVo, there are a couple of other brief clips not on here, and a few seconds cut off the beginning of this one.

One clip shows Lightning Lad fighting off giant spider robots and what looks like Timber Wolf (in Furball mode). In the second one, we see all of the Legionnaires, including a Triplicate Girl who splits into three (duh!), each with a different hair color - white, orange, and purple (so that was Lu Neutral, not Nura).

Interestingly, in the first clip note that Lightning Lad is telling Superman how to use one particular power, suggesting that they might have to train him in how to be Super since he came to the future from a time before he became Superman. The first few seconds of the YouTube clip were cut off, and we see a brief shot of Clark looking up in awe at a Superman statue.

There are three seperate clips. One tease, one main clip both described above, and then one last tease that shows Lu (Yes, her NOT Dream Girl, using her powers). I'm in the process of trying to present them here.

The first tease was shown in each show (twice in "Spider Riders") before the main clip during the Batman. The last clip appeared during "Viewtiful Joe."

(Personal Opinion: How do kids watch these crappy shows?)

Gary Rocks!

You missed a tease Gary. I got two teases prior to the preview then one more at the end of the morning. I have all four scenes strung together into an MP4 format (playable in Quicktime or on a PSP) that comes in at 14MB if anyone is interested.

Scott - why not upload it to YouTube?

I'm going to have link here in a few minutes...

I will when I get back home later tonight if Gary doesn't already have it done.

Click these links and then wait for the video to play. The quickest is the second tease, so you may want to test that one first. Then, to play them again, right click and play.

These designs look better in action (Garth is really growing on me), but I still like Caldwell's the best (of what's been leaked).

I'm really excited now.

Sweet! But I still think that to save bandwidth, YouTube (or Google) is the way to go with these. At 15 MB per person if you're looking at all four clips, at 70 people that's a gig of data transfer right there.

Thanks. I'll keep an eyeout for the bandwidth.

Coolio! The designs look a lot better animated! Really not digging "SuperMAN & the Legion" though. It just sounds so wrong!

When does this start?

Sometime in September?

Stills on Comics Continuum.

The animation is growing on me but i couldn't get the clips to play here.

You should leave the window open and wait. It will play eventually. I've tried it on multilpe computers so far.

I had it on for like 30 or 40 minutes.
