Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Recent Legion-verse sightings in DCU proper

Was the Time Trapper in the latest The Brave & the Bold?

That was Destiny (of the Endless).

It was his book that was stolen and being used throughout the story. Also, did everyone else realize that it's the Challengers of the Unknown whom Destiny was trying to get the book to, to fix?

Oh yeah the Endless guy. I remember him. And good call with the Challengers. I knew one of you guys would figure it out with that old school cover.

I wonder if they people who are going to "fix" things are the Challangers of the Beyond (Donna, Kyle, and Jason?) ok sorry that is for another thread.

From the Meltzer/Johns interview at Newsarama:

Just in case anyone was wondering.

Just a bigger version of the BatB spread.

Funny, I assumed the four guys who were messing with Destiny's book were the writers of 52!

Where does it say that KK joins the JLA?

You're right. Geoff Johns confirmed in a Wizard interview last week it is Querl Dox -- an "adult Brainiac 5". I don't think he means the pipe-smoking one, though.

ADULT BRAINIAC 5
For years, Booster has incorporated a stolen Legion of Super-Heroes flight ring into his arsenal, and now, the Legion has finally come to collect it.

“Dan Jurgens always had a story about whose ring it was and just never got to it,” reveals Johns."

Umm... didn't Jurgens reveal the origin of the ring in the Booster Gold series?

Maybe, but that was a zillion years ago in a different reality. Was it supposed to be Brainy's ring then, too?

Yeah. But even granting that the story would have to be re-written for the new continuity (it heavily involved Ronald Reagan, for one thing), the article makes it sound as though it's something that's never been adressed.

So, I wonder which Brainy it's going to be?

You're right Eryk. In Booster's original series, it was indeed Brainy's ring that was left behind in the 20th century. Also his force field belt was left there too, to protect the President from an assassination attempt. The belt's technology was eventually incorporated into the suit Booster would wear.

I'm hoping for a pre-Crisis Brainy. Booster is a post-Crisis character, and has already crossed paths with the pre-Crisis Legion in his origin. Besides, it sounds like his new series is a cross between Quantum Leap and Sliders, so I'm sure he could find the pre-Crisis Legion if he tried hard enough...

Mon-El has a significant amount of panel time in the lastest issue of Action (#851)

This is the Phantom Zone issue with the coold 3-D "Phantom Zone glasses, btw.

A preview page from next week's Countdown #42 (courtesy of Newsarama ):

no mention of VS Card System - World's Finest - Matter Eater Lad got it's own in it? I have heard about it but have NOT seen it yet. I am curious if anyone knows about this?

Here you go. Took some digging to find.

The pages leading up to these can be seen here .

Ugh. That Dev-Em is even worse than I thought it would be.

Exactly. They could've named him Nim-Em or something.

It wouldn't be so bad if he at least looked really cool, but that's just... ugh.

Which is par for a lot of DC art lately. Well the hell are all the good artists?

I admit I am not digging Kubert in Action.

Devem was never a major player to me, so I guess I'm not feeling the pain. The other characters looks good (to me).

Looks like they're filling in a few details from the old time and time again?

A Star"man" partly knows about pre-crisis? Somehow two Starboys got merged and he seems nuts?

I suppose it'd all be clearer if I actually bought the darn things, but that's a lot of money just to see a few panels. The story seems interesting to me.

Dev-Em's gotten so screwed up over the years I don't expect we'll ever see the version we're familiar with again. Makes me wonder why they bother using the name at all.
