I love the DnA Legion Lost and although this has nothing to do with it, if the tone and the despiration stay intact, I'm there. I love the Legion, but I also love seeing them suffer. Tough love, if you will. Pete Woods is a very good choice as well. I trust Fabian to deliver the Legion I surely need.

By the way, this is an excellent lineup. The only thing I'd add would be some XS, since Flash Speedforce is going nowhere. Will we see XS in this title?

[Skaddix]

Sounds interesting. Not much new though.
Still nice to see some character development for Fire and Star and Tyroc especially these guys have basically been spinning their wheels.

Going to be interesting to see who takes control.

Love Legion. Love Fabe. Love Woods.

Win-win-wn situation for me.

Plus, Wildfire and Timber Wolf are also two of my favorites.

I'm a happy man.

Peace

Wildfire has previous leading experience, however, since he is such a blank slate, I'm placing my bets on Tyroc being a more level-headed leader.

I figure XS will join the main Legion along with the 6 Legion Academy kids as replacements to these guys.

I'm loving this concept, but isn't this is a bit of a risk for D.C.?

I always figured WildFire, Dawnstar and T-Wolf were the most popular Legionnaires. So I'm wondering how this is going to work.

Even tho most Legion fans like more than one or even two Legionnaires.

[Dave Hackett]

Gates, Wildfire and Quislet are my three favourite Legionnaires, so with two out of three in the book, you bet I'll be there.

[Skaddix]

I am thinking the Legion is fine.
They still have Brainy, Saturn, the lightnings, shadow lass, etc.

Although honestly I don't know why DC decide to this especially if they are just going to add 7 more back on to Legion. Unless the Legion is getting hammered by a massive causality count which solicits suggest. I mean I thought losing some would tighten the focus on fewer characters but that is not happening.

Also confused on how Legion gets two but present teens have only one super team.

By the Legion's (that is Cosmic Boy) standards now, anytime the Legion has under 25 guys in it they are severly undermanned.

So them losing 7 guys is a super emergency for them. That's on top of the fact that the Legion is used to having 3-4 guys of Superman's power level around (Supes, Mon-El, Ultra Boy and Supergirl sometimes).

Having to make do with only Mon-El and Ultra Boy is freaking them out.

[Patryn]

Curious if they'll ever reference the fact that this will now be the SECOND time Gates has been stuck in the present day for an extended time.

[Scavenger]

It's Fabian, so yay.

But his Red Robin story gets axed, so boo.

But Morrison was swiping everything he'd been setting up anyway, so Fabe was never going to get it going anyway, so yay.

Yep, they're among my favorite Legionnaires. If they were not in this book, odds are I would not be buying it.

[Nevets F]

I really hope XS appears somewhere. I wish it was with this team, but sadly it's not.

[Blind pugh]

I haven't read any Legion since handed down copies of the silver age guys, but this book has some of my favourite members & a great creative team, so this is a definite buy.

[Gladiator X]

Really looking forward to this book!

Wildfire and Dawnstar are the whole reason that I've been a Legion fan since the early 70's.
