Some guy: I don't believe there are people out there. In Genesis, it says God created the firmament. It doesn't say anything about him putting people in it. If you think there are people up there, explain why they have never contacted us.
Eddie Campbell: There are people in the next street who have never contacted us!!

Continuing with the Legion lettercolumn theme:
--From the letter column of Adventure Comics #329. Forty years later, that last statement would be confirmed in Legion of Super-Heroes vol. 5 #3.I don't think there is enough romance in the Legion. The Legionnaires always seem so serious. Since they are teenagers, they must go on some dates. -Nancy Scott, Stuart, Fla.
(Sure they go on dates - especially Triplicate Girl, who sometimes goes on three at a time! -Ed.)Aaron Kashtan | Formerly Sir Tim Drake
