Awesome, good to hear about the return of the LOSH.
I'll be getting JLU, JLD and Swamp Thing Annuals and will probably end up reading Injustice in trade.
Will definitely be disappointed if this doesn't lead into a massive retooling, or better yet a straight relaunch. Yes, I know its reputation for multiple reboots, but they never get it right. It needs to start from the beginning again.
I keep looking for something to get me back into DC. Maybe this will do it. I love the Legion.
this makes me happy. the Legion has been gone for too long.
I was just about to drop this title but I may stick around now. Or just pick up the Annual. I hope it's a new take on the Legion so that all the deaths at the end of Levitz run will be retconed. Basically just erase Levitz last run entirely. Happy their using Gary Frank's character designs. I know a lot of people hated it but I love Saturn Girl with the short hair.
We never found out what happened to The Legion Lost. They're probably still trapped in the present. Hopefully my favorite Legionnaire Timber Wolf shows up.
My thoughts exactly. At this point, the only people you run the risk of offending are hard core fans. The Legion needs a complete reboot to attract new readers and to dump all of the baggage of prior history. I'm an old school Legion fan from way back too but they need a complete revamp. Not new origins or anything. Just start as though its all new and go from there.
I know Dawnstar and Wildfire are on the covers for the Futures End issues of the Justice League books. One was on Justice League and the other was on Justice League United.
They need to use this story as a way to get the Lost team back to the future were they belong before they become cannon fodder in some lame event book which is probably what will happen if they are left unused in the present day too long. They might not kill Wildfire, Dawnstar, or Timber Wolf but Tellus, Gates, Tyroc, and Chameleon Girl are just the kind of characters that they like to kill off when they need a body count in some story.
Dc seems to want to continue to use Legion Lost in the 21st century. It looks like all of the 31st century Legion will soon be stuck in the 21st century (maybe permanently ?). Maybe there are tons of job openings at Starbucks for refugees from the 31st century.

Braal probably exists in the 21st century. There are many earthlings with magnetic powers : outburst, magenta, aura, lodestone, magno, vykin, dr polaris, etc. There are also some with the powers of both Lightning Lad and Cosmic Boy like Static, Jet, Triumph, Coldcast, livewire leslie willis, etc.
If the Legion gets stuck in the 21st century it'll probably play out like it did the late 80's. Just a rehash of an old concept.
