Not sure where they got it or if it is even real but the Superman Homepage has a episode breakdown for the first season. <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Spoilers be here:</span><span class="spoiler_text"> Summaries "MAN OF TOMORROW" When fearsome villains the fatal five set their sights on the newly formed Legion of Super Heroes, three of the Legion's members go back in time to get help from the greatest hero of all time: Superman. Instead they find Clark Kent, aware of his powers but not yet of his grand destiny. "TIMBER WOLF" A mysterious scientist asks the Legion to help capture a dangerous creature. They succeed, only to discover the creature is nowhere near as dangerous as the scientist himself. "LEGACY" Superman unknowingly saves the life of Alexis, one of the wealthiest people in the galaxy. Alexis and Superman become fast friends, but when Superman's Legion responsibilities get in the way of their friendship, Alexis decides to do something about it... "FEAR FACTORY" During a cosmic storm, the team takes refuge in a creepy, derelict space station. On board, one-by-one, each Legionnaire faces his or her deepest fear -- and then disappears. "CHAMPIONS" While supporting Lighting Lad as he competes in the challenging Galactic Games, Superman and Phantom Girl uncover a sinister plot by the Fatal Five! Lightning Lad has troubles of his own when he finds his biggest competition from someone close to him. "PHANTOMS" When Superman accidentally opens a gateway to a phantom dimension, a young man with powers identical to his is freed in the process. Now Superman must not only stop this destructive visitor, but also rescue the Legionnaires when they become trapped in the vistor's dimension. "CHILD'S PLAY" A young sorcerer arrives on Earth and causes a heap of trouble. In an effort to send him home, Superman learns of his vulnerability to magic, while Phantom Girl puts her diplomatic skills to the test as she travels to the sorcerer's secretive world to ask for help. "LIGHTING STORM" Much to the Legion's disappointment, Lighting Lad accepts an invitation to join an older, "cooler" team. Once there, however, Lightning Lad realizes these new heroes aren't exactly what they seem. Now, caught between the Legion and his new friends, Lighting Lad must decide once and for all where his loyalties lie. "BRAIN DRAIN" A major malfunction sends Brainiac 5's genius IQ plummeting. To obtain the rare element needed to save him, Superman and Timber Wolf must travel to the most inhospitable planet in the galaxy -- and thanks to a transporter accident, they have only Brainy's head to guide them. "THE SUBSTITUTES" It's that time of year again -- Legion Auditions! This year's crop is hardly promising, with most hopefuls turning out to be comic duds. But when the Legion is overwhelmed fighting a mysterious foe in Earth's upper atmosphere, a group of rejects takes it upon themselves to save the world below... with outrageous results. "CHAIN OF COMMAND" When disaster strikes Lightning Lad's home planet of Winath, the Legion is called to help. Lightning Lad's efforts to take charge are thwarted however when long-absent Legion leader Cosmic Boy arrives with an enigmatic new hero in tow. "SUNDOWN, PT. 1" The Legion is put to the ultimate test when an ancient weapon known as a Sun Eater comes to life. The Legion mounts a heroic defense, but the Sun Eater proves too powerful. Now at full strength, the unstoppable Sun Eater sets its sights on Earth... Part one of a two-part episode "SUNDOWN, PT. 2" With the Sun Eater on a direct course for Earth's sun, the Legion has no choice but to ask bitter enemies for help to stop it. Superman meanwhile has his toughest battle yet when he discovers the stealthy alien controlling the sinister machine. In the end, the Legion triumphs... but at a terrible cost. Part two of a two-part episode. </span></span>

It looks real enough, that's why I put it up on the Omnicom.
We already knew the titles for "Timber Wolf" and "Champions", we knew that Mekt will arrive and that Cosmic Boy is in for a 3-episode arc at the end, the finale is a remake of a classic 2-parter, and the Fatal Five are big players. This could just be someone's fanfic but Superman Homepage has gotten some good stuff before (they were the first with the promo picture with the purple starfield background).
I have no idea where they got it from since the titles and descriptions are usually not released this far in advance, so if they are real, it must have come from an insider.
Can't wait for the Subs episode!

You mentioned Mon maybe for the Phantom episode. What about Dev-Em instead? Or do you think they'll pull the lead poisoning made him crazy?

Young sorcerer? Mordru perhaps? And the title -- Child's Play? -- could we have a Legion Babies episode?
...but you don't have a moment where you're sitting there staring at a table full of twenty-five characters with little name signs that say, "Hi, my superpower is confusing you!"

At the Con, they showed an video that focused on each of the Legionnaires and showed them using their powers.
If anyone can get a copy, I'd love to host it here for everyone to see.

My bet is that Ferro Lad joins in the Tryouts/Subs episode, just in time to die fighting the Sun Eater.
Maybe Starfinger's team is the one Lightning Lad joins in "Lightning Storm", or in "The Substitutes", maybe the mysterious foe they fight in the upper atmosphere (unless Grimbor is back to try to chain the Earth again).

Lol...that sounds better than the first thought I had when I read that synopsis. "Garth? On another team? Oh Grife, is it gonna be Work Force?"

nice. it's very "adventure" era focussed. in the first season we get: -the Timber Wolf origin from adventure. -Lightning Lord (and probably a glimpse of the Ranzz lightning accident. will it include Ayla?) -Dev-Em -the Subs (will Night Girl have her bee-hive?) -the Fatal Five/Sun-Eater/Ferro Lad classic. sounds like big roles for Phantom Girl, Lightning Lad, Timber Wolf. i wonder if the clubhouse will look like the upside down rockrt-ship! i am happy! i look forward to Year two and meeting the Heroes from Lallor, the Wanderers, the LSV, Nemesis Kid, Time Trapper, Rond Vidar and Universo, Computo, Dr. Regulus and Sun Boy. oh boy!

I bet the "older, cooler" team is the LSV in some form.

Thanks Mark! Although I'm depressed. If I'd known they were showing more clips today, I'd have capped the show for us here. Scott...Michael...did either of you tape the show?

No but I guess I gotta start setting my TiVo now. Nice of them to announce the promos after the fact. Truthfully, there's no way I'd watch the crap they are showing on Kids'WB! if it weren't for the Legion.

It pains me to have to put a Season Pass in my TiVo for those shows. I suppose I could put a single 5-hr Manual Record block in, maybe that way it won't show up in my list as Yu-Gi-Oh.

Whoa! I wanna toss this link down here (mainly so I donn't lose track of it too easily) I'm pretty sure that most of you that are looking through this stuff have already seen most of this information but here it is all in one neat little package for me to browse later when I get my "real" internet connect back. ...AND...I see I have to find a copy of DC Adventures #28. Cool!

(Though I warn that the quality isn't that great, sadly.) Hmmm.. I wonder if that choppy audio in the clip is the Legion's theme song. (The Legion's first, right?) If so, what I could hear sounded pretty decent--not too Superman, kinda future-y, and (thankfully) no electric guitar.
