It's likely that your Ferro Lad is Wildfire, but I can confirm your Phantom Lass is actually Dream Girl, and your Wildfire is confirmed to be Sun Boy

I don't think that's TimberWolf up front. Look at the symbol on the chest of the guy sitting on Colossal Boy's shoulder - that looks like TimberWolf's symbol IMO.

The one in front was confirmed by Bendis, as Timber Wolf, at SDCC.
The gold lantern looking one im gonna guess Naomi or a decendant.
Pink says Kinetix to me but not sure why. Could be Mysa as well she was tied to Amethyst during the 5 Year Gap Lrgion.
Purple and white is Phantom Girl.
On Colossal Boy shoulder looks like a fox or wolf symbol but could be Catspaw i suppose.

Wait, how? Bendis wasn't at SDCC this year.

But Bendis said currently (as in before issue 16 of Superman) there was no Legion of Super-Heroes in current DC continuity. He also said that this is the first time Superman will be meeting a Legion in this continuity.

It seems like Bendis is moving the Legion to the 32nd century to leave the 30th and 31st centuries untouched as symbolic memorial of those past stories from previous versions of the DCU.

I think it's similar to how, as per Doomsday Clock, Superman debuts later and later in the time line, and his previous first appearances are attributed to earlier continuities.

And in case anyone ever wants to bring back the old Legion .

Got to speak with Brian...and the Legion IS our Legion.....and that is Timber Wolf on the cover..Tyler! He showed me the artwork for the cover of LSH #1. IRS a beauty..!!! It was a great event....except for one of the store's event workers...he acted badly!

Bald Asian is probably Karate Kid.

It's looking more and more like an AU of the old Legion, to be honest .

Purple Girl has halo that just screams Phantom Girl to me.

I'm surprised they'd change up Phantom Girl's look that much.

They all seem changed to me. If this is the old Legion then i hope there is an in story reason for the change that's about the only way i'm gonna except it.

And in case anyone ever wants to bring back the old Legion .

So, it seems like all the main Supers have their own Legions. Superman has the original crew. Connor has the post Zero Hour Legion. Supergirl's Legion is the teenage movement created by Mark Waid. Jonathan Kent has this new 32nd century Legion.

Get ready for the Legion of Four Worlds storyline .

Tinya's the purple girl in white, not the girl next to ultra boy? Hmm, that is different, but if this is a different version than that's fine...I suppose.

Thanks for the quote!

And, I think it would just be simpler to call it the reboot it is. I think he just doesn't want to offend older fans.

Bendis said that this would be his DC equivalent to Ultimate Spider-Man in terms of intent, remixing of classic and past stories/the feeling he got from them, and use of modern sensibilities.
