Let's see what happened to the Legion after K.O.
>>154856537
>>154856540
>>154856551I would appreciate if one of the LoSH's 3 fans on here would bump
>>154856537That’s a very happy crown.
>>154856573OwO
>>154856568sorry anyone here I had to resize some pages
>>154856573>>154856588Thanks anons
>>154856656Hourman is our man
>>154856726
The Enemy is revealed
>>154856791The infinite man has a smooth crotch
>>154856702Terry exists and he is canon! And is not tim!
>>154856851KLARK! AAAAAAH AAAAAH HE'LL SAVE EVERYONE OF US.
>>154856860Personally I'd save Levitz. Like no hesitation.
Here is present Clarks side of what we saw in Action 1100
what is just this once everyone lives.
>>154856877This only proves that not even bullshit incarnate that is tenchi cant beat superman.
>>154856898The power scalers are gonna have a field day with this one.
>>154856656HOLY FUCKING RE-ENTER
>>154856588OuO, more like
>>154856910Watch them taking facts of the ass to defend kami tenchi, i'll grab a popcorn.
ah a nice happy ending. and look a rocket falls to earth its like pottery
>>154856959well so much for nice things
no happy endings for them
>>154856970fucking brainiac
>>154856970Legion vs braniac, a classic.
welp no escape
>>154856851Reboot Legionbros . . . We made it . . .
not just any brainiac
>>154857003oh it's that ... lady. the one we thought would be important but wasn't.
wonder why shes working for him now when flashpoint was implied she merged vertigo and wildstorm to stop him
>>154857003>>154857012who is it?
>>154857003Pandora in the year 2026wew
>>154857029Pandora. She was some mystery chic running around at the start of the New52. I guess she was like their panic button option if things went bad but they just used Dr Manhattan instead.
>>154857029>>154857033and then theres this asshole
>>154857057Fucking Hank Henshaw.
>>154857038>OG>???>5YL>Threeboot?>Bendis>RebootAm I right?
>>154857057Well piss. I was gonna guess an Evil Jon.
>>154857057>>154857038da fuq?
>>154857023sorry I just straight fucked that upguess this explains the need for a new neo nu legion
>>154856568...we didn't need to know that.
and then theres this asshole spoilered this time
>>154857079gay people cant be evil silly anonanyway heres a preview for the new new new new legion
>>154857057>>154857079Cir-El would've fit better....But she was a ploy to take over the future by Brainiac 13, and no longer exists in ANY future.
Well that was interesting. I'm actually pretty curious where the new legion book is going to go now. I was still hoping it'd be an existing classic legion but we'll see. Williamson's stuff has been okay.
Sorry I fucked up the spoilers near the end there anons.
You know, I can’t be the only one mildly annoyed by this whole idea of Superman constantly redeeming whole monsters just because “oh we learned our lesson also i have kids now so im immune to consequences” or something.It’s the equivalent to those memes of Steven Universe trying to redeem Hitler except except it’s not Hitler but someone that’s committed far more atrocious acts on a multiversal scale. Like what kind of lesson does that even impart?
>>154857121Ah, that would have been nuts. Didn't they hint she was back in some form?
and thats that. if you enjoyed it please go visit your local lcs shop and get something you enjoy
>>154857137I think there's some wiggle room for when said monsters were the mindless thrawls of a larger villain who were then punished to live on a desolate wasted hellscape.
>>154857137Superman believes the best in everybody. He wants people to be good. Also he knows from when the absolute trinity fought them in K.O. that Darkseid was controling everyone from the absolute universe
Thanks for the storytime op, also justice league annual is out too and OH BOY... edgelordtheus is back on the menu.
>>154857003>bleediac and pandoraOh shit.
>>154857162darkseid raped his eye sockets.
Man at this rate I expect Helspont to show up randomly.
>>154857141If they did, I'm not aware of it. They dredged her up for an 'alt version ensemble' plot in Superman/Batman in 2006 and haven't even mentioned her since, AFAIK.I sometimes get weirdly attached to completely abandoned characters like her for whatever reason.
>>154857003>Brainiac One Million from Snyder’s stupid Perpetua storyline>Not Convergence BrainiacFucking why
>>154857205fucking kickass character design
>>154857141It’s not really stated but sorta implied that ever since Dr. Manhattan rebooted everything that everyone affected by what he did had come back, including the moment he killed her during Doomsday Clock
>>154857226That might have been it, but if so it implies she can exist in some capacity. and with all the multiverse bullshit we've had the past decades her showing up wouldn't be near the asspull some other shit has been.>I sometimes get weirdly attached to completely abandoned characters like her for whatever reason.I know what you mean. There's a lot of character who just get punted from the book too quickly and I think that's a shame. I like to imagine what could have been if they were given more chances.
>>154857234I'd have chosen Brainiac 13 in all his early 00s cgi glory
>>154857268Eh... it's Mxyzptlk. Him 'sending her back where she "belongs"' could have easily just been him re-erasing her from the timeline.
>>154856702>Supermam uses his powers to make Terry the canon successorHoly based.
>>154856791Supes rocks the beard. Clark pulls off long hair or a beard pretty well. Not both at the same time though.
>>154857374He already showed up as a pawn of og brainiac when he was make brainiac queen
>>154857613>>154857613>Superman made waller overwrite a guys sperm with Bruce's
>>154857643I said it before I'll say it again, Clark looks like he belongs on a paper towel package.
>>154857664>Supes: "Oh fug, Bruce isn't immortal."He's thinking ahead. Thanks Supes.
>>154857682What does he blame Damian for his son being gay?
>>154857150Baldiac
>>154857613It's just one of the many possible timelines anon, there's also Batman 666 in there.
>>154857613>>154858300Also Future State, Futures End, Titans Tomorrow and Kamandi, none of these are definite DC Futures.
>>154857111Holy shit Cyborg Superman in a story that ISN'T written by Jurgens?
>>154856811Terry is canon in his own timeline/Earth.
>>154856791>we have eternity at home
>>154857003goddamn it not this bitch again
>>154857003Dora??? In the big 26??Why is she here??
>>154858472More like HOW is she here, does her story still work with most of the New 52 being non-canon now? Did Narcissus still become the Question?
>>154857111You'd think Hank would be a bigger deal. It's not like he's a small deal but he doesn't show up as often as one might think.
>>154858868He also somehow shows up more than one would expect, he's weird.
Hank is a fun villain
>>154856537bump
>>154856702Wonder why Williamson bothered to reference Future State in this splash page
>>154859906The page is all about possible futures anon, Beyond, Titans Tomorrow, Kamandi, Batman 666, Future State fits right in.What other alternate future would you have preferred to see there instead?
>>154857133Sherman's Art looks good in this
>>154856791Oh no how are they gonna beat him in 20 pages or less.
Can we get the justice league storytime too? Lex and Batman was great.
>>154857664The World Forger said Batman's level of genius is top class across the DC (then-)multiverse and if he tried really hard and did everything right Batman could have taken down every villain in existence (including Darkseid).It was a hard choice, but Clark made the right decision.
>>154856791Could Doctor Manhattan have taken him?
>>154856916It's slowly sinking in that this is the closest to a Silver Age Superman story I've read in a while. Feels really weird this is how and where I'm getting it.
>>154857023>Darkseid got a new hoI mean it's not exactly out of character, even before the New 52 he had a whole harem on Apokolips. I'm just shocked he settled for PANDORA out of everyone he could've chosen>>154857137You are not, no. In my case I just cannot bring myself to care because these writers don't have the balls to show the evil Legion committing crimes worse than wearing omega symbols and punching good guys anyway, this isn't Final Crisis where Darkseid's minions are yapping about running trains on Supergirl or beating out Tawky Tiger's brains or taking Mary Marvel's body for a joyride or mass cloning and traumatising Batman.
>>154856672Whatever happened to Rip Hunter? He was the guy in charge of the timestream for years. Granted, Flashpoint happened under his watch so he probably got fired.
>>154860616Batman bullied him and his family during Flashpoint Beyond to bring back the Flashpoint timeline, incidentally endangering the entire omniverse, all because he was sad about evil Thomas Wayne (who was directly responsible for City of Bane by the way) and wanted to give him a second chance at life.Batman has never been held accountable for this, by the way. The Time Hunters just went "W-well, he's getting involved in a REAL shitty event later!" but nobody else knows Batman once destabilised the space-time continuum just to save his shithead dad.
>>154860638>Batman has never been held accountable for this, by the wayStory of his life.
>>154856791Perpetua had a sex change
>>154856568Clark should know that Lois is going to be fine, eventually, if time actually moved forward.
>>154860759Absolutely outrageous he had the balls to make Failsafe after how Brother Eye went down.
>>154860889To be fair Superman Prime did end up eating shit to the Unkindness in one future and Lex in another, he ain't all that and can't actually fend off every calamity ever. Also he needed help to resurrect her.The escalation has reached the point where Superman Prime wouldn't be able to offer current Superman much more than the other guys helping him
>>154857715Damian always joins the league and has kids as ra's did.
>>154857093>no one is panicking>they're all studying their containment fieldsSo this is probably just a setup to a new Legion book instead of some event, hopefully.
>>154861411Wew I'm a fucking retard who should read the VERY NEXT PAGE sometimes
>>154857023Fucking hell, are they going back to Darkseid again?
>>154861435For now. I guess we'll be seeing them again in Absolute Crisis.
>>154860900To be fair he didn't know he made failsafe at first. That was zur who made it
>>154857133The pencils look fantastic by themselves, but the colouring does add that final touch.
>>154856742>I killed her children, and then I raped her. And I smashed her head in, just like this.
>>154861674I have to admit Batman unilaterally deciding to give himself brain damage as a "secret contingency" is a separate topic of discussion re: Batman's mental health. I don't even blame Batman for trying to compensate for a compromised mind in a line of work where he has to regularly go up against Poison Ivy even when he isn't helping the Justice League fight evil telepaths, I am just disappointed in his competence that he didn't simply.You know.Ask his good friend Zatanna for magical mental shielding spells, or something. God forbid he learn a simple Tibetan meditation technique, it HAS to be a fucking tulpa.
>>154861475No, I meant "DC is using Darkseid as a villain again". It is getting very repetitive no matter how much he keeps power creeping.
>>154861435I take it you have been following DC very closely of late? We've been going back to Darkseid regularly ever since Batkek and Perpetuflop were defeated. The well has truly run dry, even when sufficiently powerful characters like the Empty Hand or the Great Darkness or uh, Pariah overshadow Darkseid he's the only one who keeps coming back for seconds.I think Darkseid has taken more jumps in powerlevel to justify his continued threat level than fucking Goku at this point.
>>154857111Can we just have Ultraman come back for once? No love for THE evil superman.
>>154862018Ultraman comes with the whole Earth 3 baggage that keeps being rebooted, Cyborg Supes is comparatively simpler.
>>154862018I’m pretty sure the entire crime syndicate is trapped on this earth too after the events of absolute power. They may also potentially be depowered or have someone else’s powers
>>154862018The problem is DC still isn't sure how to handle the weird cuck shit between him, Owlman and Superwoman without coming off as heckin' toxic.
>>154856537thanks
>>154856791empty hand?
>>154861856Darkseid announced Absolute Crisis in DC KO 5. He'll be back pretty soon.
>>154856887connerbros..he cares about us..
>>154861900Darkseid was confirmed as a fundamental force of the DC Universe by The Spectre. He's the Omega, the embodiment of entropy. Maybe his fuckery with the Abs Elseworld Universe will displace him in some way, but as of our last update, he is a fixture of everything that exists.
>>154861846The same zatanna who mind wiped him and let to him creating brother eye? That zatanna?
>>154862018Ultraman is currently dead killed by injustice superman. Superwoman took earth 3 Jon back to their earth through. 5d demon portal and told that Jon about how gay jon let ultraman get killed
>>154863216Get over it, Bruce.
>>154862485I liked it better when he was just a overlord
>>154861900Don't forget darkseid was confirmed to be the closed fist opposite to the empty hand. And then once he got over that brainwashing and remerged with all his splinters he was confirmed to be the embodiment of omega energy and he killed himself so he could be something more that wasn't fated to job to superman
>>154862102sexo
>>154857093I GUESS that's understandable, but it's still annoying that we need a new Legion at all man, this is like the fifth one, wish we could just go back to the original one like most of DC has been doing.Feels like DC is afraid of just doing that again with the Legion for some reason.>>154857111So... we go from Darkseid Legion to Cyborg Legion I guess?
>>154866884I just want my legion
>>154866884I think it's that they don't want to po fans of the reboot or threeboot or even bendisboot legions so they just create a new one. Hopefully once brainiac 1 million is defeated pandora will use her powers to merge all the legions and we get one that takes the best of everything. Mostly retroboot vibes but with some good reboot characters like gates or Barts cousin. And some from threeboot maybe. And some from this new one
>>154862485This may sound like nitpicking to you, but while I remember that I would argue that still made him far less insignificant as "merely" the pinnacle of entropy...for Earth-0.Not >>154865450 this fucking bullshit solely to scale him as a multiversal, sorry OMNIVERSAL threat>>154863216Yeah, that one. DC consistently portrays Batman as having gotten over it, he might as well double down if he really believes in trusting his teammates.>>154866884Absolute Legion.You know it's coming.DC has finally found something that sells, they're gonna milk it drier than the Sahara.
>>154868258Technically pic related is the Absolute Legion already.My theory is that Williamson wanted to end this with the Absolute Legion being "fixed", freed of Darkseid's influence and could make a proper Absolute Legion, but he couldn't do that since they probably would have to tie it into Absolute Superman, so instead he's just making mainline Legion reboot #4.
>>154868258>>154868403>pic relatedMeant to post this, these guys are the Legion from the Absolute Universe.
>>154860616>Granted, Flashpoint happened under his watch so he probably got fired.that was bullshit and we both know it Boostergold was solving flashpoint tier shit on the reg in his own book it never should have done any real damage to the timeline Rip doesn't deserve to get fired from his job for that
>>154868403Yeah totally but you know what I mean, I mean DC is definitely angling to turn them into "team guys we can sell a solo off" instead of Darkseid minions now Pandora took their jobsDarkseid is such a good employer in this economy, offering all the C and D-list villains (and collaborating with THE Psycho Pirate) jobs at a time when they'd normally be cast aside in favour of the next random cosmic threat
>>154860175Turns out it was by hitting him really REALLY hard.
>>154868622Watch as he will be behind the ba nightwing is dealing with in his ongoing which was caused by the original psycho pirate
>>154868258>This may sound like nitpicking to you, but while I remember that I would argue that still made him far less insignificant as "merely" the pinnacle of entropy...for Earth-0.No he was confirmed the Pinnacle for the metaverse so everything but esp the ones we read
>>154868677Tbh I'm still unsure how seriously to take metaverse scaling. Manhattan's powerscaling of Superman was ultimately unproven since Superman wasn't actually attacking him and he was witnessing his own voluntary death. I know Johns brought back the term in Flashpoint Beyond but Superman didn't exactly show up to intervene with Batman's bullshit either
>>154857150>Baldiac
Will anyone storytime the justice league one shot that is tied to this annual too?
>>154869031Which one?
>>154869516The one that came out this week too with lex and batman.
>>154869561I may do it tomorrow if i'm not still nursing this headache
>>154857003>>154857023Wonder how she survived being destroyed by Manhattan?
I'd do it now but I'm catching up on Nightwing. I will storytime it tomorrow!
If Lightning Lad can be be de-negrofied, maybe one day, Jon can be de-sodomized.
>>154870436I hope so anon
>>154869031I did this one. I would but I gotta work early tomorrow sorry. I worked late today but early tomorrow
>>154870220Sometimes, Big Blue Dong doesn't kill you, he just makes it SEEM like he killed you.
>>154856664Why are ships in storms so fucking kino
>>154872358It speaks to our innate human need for adventure
You know I'm cool with Hank being a lackey of Brainiac, even the vanilla/conventional version. Cyborg Superman isn't just a threat to Superman, but the entire galaxy. How many times has he harassed The Green Lanterns? Although I wouldn't go with the New 52 origin, I'm cool with old school pissed off astronaut Hank being reformatted by Brainiac, and is in it for the love the game.>"I hate you, I love exploring space, seems like a win/win to me, Superman"
>new new new new new legioni miss snek Projectra before they fucked up her design
>>154856970Legion bros can someone identify the members idk much about LOSH
>>154872446I've been reading the Brainiac Reborn omnibus and it's kind of funny how when we see Hank for the first time there he doesn't fly off as an enemy. He flies off peacefully to study the cosmos. He didn't even blame Superman for anything. Then next we see him he's just the galaxy's biggest asshole. And that's who he is now.
>>154872486From left to rightCosmic Boy, Ultra Boy, Triplicate Girl, Lightning Lad, Shadow Lass, Timberwolf? And I can't make out the last one.
>>154868414These guys not being dealt with in the Absolute books sucks. Would have made kino enemies for the Absolute heroes to face. But I suspect the writers didn't want to do it and Snyder/Williamson just threw it in there during All In for Williamson's Superman or a horde of enemies for the Absolute heroes if they ended up having to end the line early.
>>154872446How powerful is cyborg superman normally? A brainiac/larfleeze scale threat?
>>154872645He destroyed Coast city and drove Hal Jordan to become Parallax. He's a massive threat power wise, he's just content to play second fiddle so long as he gets to be an asshole.
>>154857003Pandora is back but not Batkek?that's bullshit
>>154872682Fuck Batkek, don't ever bring that faggot back.
>>154872645He's got cybernetic enhancements, he has Superman's powers, he's a technopath, and he has used power rings before. You ask me, he'd be great as a regular Brainiac herald
>>154872645He almost took control of the entire Watchtower with most of the heroes present. He's quite dangerous, but ironically rarely has more than city-scale ambitions (and I'd class the Watctower as city-scale).
>>154872682Batkek is in fortnight having fun
>>154872645He an immortal being of just psionic/electrical energy. He literally can't die. He can control electronics. He is as strong as Kryptonian with his form and if you destroy it he will just revive himself. Cyborg superman 2 was karas dad but he was an existing body modified to be a cyborg henshaw is just energy that manipulated the birthing matrix to make himself a Kryptonian skin suit to cover his mechanical body
>>154872474sneks are lame
>>154875090You're lame
bump
Here am i waiting for the jl annual
>>154870220He likely reversed everything he did by rebooting the whole universe, including the deaths of every person that died starting from the end of Flashpoint onward.It’d be the only way to explain why characters like Goldface, Witchfire, and Typhoon perished prior to (or in Typhoon’s case, during) Doomsday Clock only to then return under unexplained circumstances
>>154865450I don’t think he was brainwashed at all. It’s more likely that he wanted to escape his place in the grand cosmic cycle of good and evil winning and losing over and over again so he went to become his own boss in the Absolute universe since it was an untouched fragment of the Great Darkness that the force/being hadn’t no influence or control over.
>>154872682batkek is ugly and stupid, pandora is hot and stupid. it's an easy choice
>>154878730Batkek is imprisoned at fortnite.

>>154856639>rock of ages happened AGAIN but this time I had a stupid hat
>>154877520No I meant brainwashed during dark crisis by pariah using the great darknesses power
>>154881027Anons what the fuck is the great darkness these days? Is it the ultimate source of evil and negativity? I just feel like writers have lost the plot
>>154881638It apparently was influencing Prime for a while. Not sure how canon that still is.
>>154872682He'll be back eventually.
>>154872682You’re bullshit for wanting that trash
>>154872622They could still come up, but the stories very deliberately so far haven't expanded beyond the constraints of their set ups>what if classic hero setting but fucked up?Only GL has truly gone beyond the bounds of Earth. Flash touches on it but only minors in a largely abstract way where there's this singularity some humans and alien researchers end up trapped in.The problem is the Legion, both in concept and execution, often ends up crossing over with those heroes. Either as inspirational forebears or literally with time travel. That's an expansion they probably don't want to get into yet.
>>154881638Apparently it was the original void before creation filled the space. Its ultimate goal is to return to nothingness. Pariah tapped into it trying to restore his dead universe, and became corrupted by it. I guess technically it is the original “evil”
>>154862102Jesus no wonder Owlman and Ultraman were fighting over her
>>154864507Imagine if Highfather got nearly as many buffs as his brother.
>>154856537Cool cover
>>154858868He's only good in Green Lantern-related material.
>>154884200So DC's Oblivion? >>154884746He got one cool moment in the recent New Gods then jobbed
>>154884200Seeing Prime there as an avatar of the Great Darkness is really strange given his current characterization
>>154856702Good to see Kamandi and Omac still exist
>>154856791This is a character that would be incredibly threatening if he was written by Morrison.
>>154886149Isn't that basically the open hand
>>154886061i mean, given his current characterization, "he eventually decided it was too edgy and stupid" is a valid reason for him to completely ignore the Great Darkness
New Cyborg Superman origin should be>Hank flew into space as an astronaut, something went wrong, lost in space>Brainiac found Hank's shuttle, traced it back to Earth. In the meantime vivisected and studied Hank for amusement>Brainiac arrives on Earth, fights Superman, doesn't work out.>Hank resents Superman for essentially being the idol of mankind and no one gives a shit about Hank's courage/sacrifices to explore the stars.>Brainiac decides to remake Hank into a new weapon, Cyborg Superman, and it goes so well Henshaw is essentially the new errand boy/herald of Brainiac
>>154886358His old origin is still fine as is
>>154886358>new originWhy?
