Maybe it's just a Winathian accent, like the way Canadians say "oot and aboot," instead of "out and about."

Of course, in this new continuity, maybe we'll find out that Mekt had a twin who was a still-birth, and maybe that early trauma was the beginning of Mekt' s downward spiral into villainy.


Except for the Reboot, Spark's origin story in Legends of the Legion 2 and her spotlight in Legion Worlds 2 had a lot of male/female twin pairs.

Will the legionnaires follow the new norm or be rebels and recreate the ancient male/female relationship?


Well, we have Cos and Tasmia so far.

If Ayla and Vi aren't at least queer ladies again, regardless if they're dating each other or not, that might be it for me in terms of this specific iteration of the group

It took like 20-30 years to bring that aspect back into an era where they could finally be openly treated as lovers, I'm not waiting that long for it to happen again

Okay, I gotta get this off my chest before it drives me bonkers.

The more I'm seeing from the new Legion the more I deeply regret that we could've had 12 year old Jon Kent bonding with the adult Legionnaires as they fight over who gets to be THE cool aunt or uncle, instead of 17 year old Jon having lost most of his adolescence for... I guess at some point there's gonna be a plot?

As I've said before, I'd have been perfectly happy with the Legionnaires all being 12-14ish, especially since his is supposed to be a newly formed Legion.

Both those ideas would have worked.
