I may be wrong but I think this was the last storyline that Barry Kitson drew on the book. I know he didn't draw every issue - and even took a 7 or 8 issue break during it's run. But his artwork was so identifiable with this book. So glad he stayed with it as long as he did.
If I recall correctly, Jorgensen closed up the L.E.G.I.O.N. series and launched R.E.B.E.L.S. (and I have to say I was not a fan), and then, shortly after, Aucion took over the book and stuck with it until the end (and I have to say, though not Kitson's level, his art was much more to my liking).

I have a special name for LEGION '89 issues #1-12 - I call them 'Comic Book Writing 101'. Giffen took 12 issues to lay down a perfect foundation of stories and relationships that would last at least through issue #50.
While I didn't always agree with the direction Alan Grant took it (especially one critical death of a favorite character), he was a great writer until he stepped down for health reasons. But Kitson did a good job with writing the book from that point on. I admit I wasn't a big fan of REBELS the first go-around.
For any who are interested, it looks like the website Legion Of Super Bloggers will be covering L.E.G.I.O.N '89

I enjoyed this series, but I'm gonna be honest here... I mainly read it for the Lobo content.
