Fair enough. It seems we're in for the all-humanoid Legion again which brings up all those kinds of nagging questions.

Sorry, but Mike Grell gets the credit for pantsing Gim or the blame depending on how you look at it.

I have a very good feeling about this:
1) banter and exposition artfully combined,
2) young people behaving like young people,
3) an interesting anti-establishment angle,
4) exotic-looking women wearing tight-fitting clothing... mmmmm...
5) humor -- drop the head! Fine! Aahhh! When was the last time we saw Legionaires having fun being Legionaires?
6) lest I forget, great art from Mr. Kitson
Personally, I can't wait to see how the anti-establishment thing works out. So many of today's young people (if you believe the press and demographers and marketing gurus) are programmed for conformity, you'd think the intended audience for Legion would side with the SPs before the Legionaires. However, it looks like us old farts will have a grand time with this.
...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!"

I hope that wasn't GRL they were busting up. That's not going to shore up their support with the Alt-Id's around here.

:rolleyes: I wasn't opening a discussion with you, especially as you don't have the courtesy to read PM's. I was making a statement. Enough's enough. You've had all the leeway and warnings you're going to get.
A dissenting opinion is fine, and discussion is welcome. But plenty of us here have had problems with the way TPTB have handled the series without resorting to trolling.

Oh. Ouch. That was really really bad. Besides I thought the original Kid Q is the one who swiped Tyroc's shtick. Maybe being black will give Thom a little more credibility as a hard-luck-hero. I wonder if Dream Girl will still be his girlfriend? We'll see.
Ok, so I read further in that thread and have a question for Lash... or anybody actually... is it true that Matter-Eater Lad appeared in The Newsboy Legion? When? Where? etc? I can't believe I missed a LSH crossover! -damn-

Good to see Gim and Dirk back in action. Now if only a page showing us Projectra back as a humanoid I will be very very happy!! Star Boy with a hugely stretched out cape kinda looks strange. Perhaps that cape has some usefulness or it's just another artistic expression for that page??

I do have to say one negative. I DO NOT like Gim's costume either!! The design is lacking. I liked his old head gear and the torso straps and belt. I know, I know it's passe' but I still like a more complicated costume for certain members. I still miss my pointed shoulder vest just so you know Barry. Zoop it up a little more dood!!

FYI - the preview pages from the Pulse interview are not from the preview in TT/Legion special.

Great. Maybe amid all the bars and hangout places on the MMB, we ought to add a psych ward, as well.

I can't believe I missed a LSH crossover! -damn- The only comic that I suspect you may be thinking of was an issue of Secret Orgins that featured origins for the Newsboy Legion and Bouncing Boy. Don't think Matter-Eater Lad made an appearance though.
