Is Batman aware of the Legion in this Rebirth continuity, or will anyone who calls herself "Saturn Girl from the future" just be another nutter?

Superman namedrops Saturn Girl in Action Comics #966 (Since when were you a mindreader/I don't have to be Saturn Girl to see...)

DC's Facebook page posted a video of the Top Ten Legion moments. I know it is not a comic book, but I think it indicates it could get more exposure soon.

Not a full sighting (yet), but the big 8 page fold out spread for Justice League vs. Suicide Squad has the Emerald Empress on it. It also has Johnny Sorrow, so maybe these characters are teasing the return of the missing teams.
I'l admit, though, I have no clue who 3/7 of these people are. I recognise Emerald Empress (for Legion), Lobo (for JLA), Maxwell Lord (maybe he's the JLA villain? I mean, people have joked that the team is more of a JLI...) and Johnny Sorrow (JSA).
There are four others, who I'll just call Firesword, Stryfe Reaper and Grey Goblin.
There's a fine line between not listening and not caring. I like to think that I walk that line every day of my life.

Give us a clue as to characters, Sarky? It's listed as a pre-order on Comixology.

It's a happy image, no apologies necessary. I see in the preview ad that, of the 9 panels, 5 involve food...

Yes, the book is all 1 or 2 pagers. There is a one page Legion story with Superboy and Saturn Girl. None of the Conner art is in the book.

That's a bit of a win Sarky. Pointing out a piccy of the Ranzzes that also has Supergirl* and kitties *and* then letting us know of a Legion story. Supers!
*I'm not sure why Bruce looks as though he's come in from a really late night at the pub and is now watching unspeakable things on the BatWeb.

Not a DCU appearance per se, but on NBC's Powerless last night, in the video about bullying, Evillo appeared.
I still remember his first appearance 50 years ago against the Legion in Adventure Comics #351.

I guess his first issue was one issue earlier than I mentioned, although he didn't grow the horns until 351. I guess 351 also stood out to me as I read that when it first came out, but didn't read 350 until a few years later.
Thanks for the screen grab!

The latest episode of Supergirl mentions Lex collected weapons and stored them around the world in bunkers. The Persuader's Atomic Axe is one of the weapons he collected to use against Superman.

JL 16 only has a few panels of Cyborg in the 30th century (His story will likely flesh out later). Brainy doesn't get dialogue but we get a full shot and he is quite young looking (like 8 or 9).

Over in Super Sons #2, a kid called Kid Amazo is basically a kid infected with the Amazo virus from Justice League and can duplicate powers. One of the things he can do is make copies of himself. I instantly thought it was a Luornu he was copying, so she might be in the present as well? Unless there's another DC hero who can make copies of themselves and is the modern era.
Though after giving it some thought, I guess maybe he's doing the after-images thing the Flash TV show popularised, though he'd have to be moving super fast, and he wasn't leaving any lightning, and Superboy didn't seem to spot it (though it WAS on a video).
There's a fine line between not listening and not caring. I like to think that I walk that line every day of my life.
