Do you have any opinion on the Legion of super heroes?on any presentation, from that cartoon that I forgot existed until recently, or the comics from any era?
I remember the triple girl being really cute.
>>155777972I like the concept of super heroism making a comeback as a teen fad in the future and reestablishing itself. The cartoon had some cool designs, but the production was a shit show and I think the suits demanded more superman so they added another superman from the even further future.That one straight to DVD Super Girl/Legion movie cartoon was pretty good, the artstyle was one of my favourites from that time.
>>155777972I barely remember anything about this show but I remember really liking it and that Braniac 5 was my favorite character. I had a toy of him and was heartbroken by his evil arc
>>155777972I have a fondness for the Reboot Legion.
I want pic related sexy slut to get used.
Phantom girl reminds me of ace.And Saturn girl makes me think of the buzz light year alien
What does the P stand for?
>>155779338Bump
I like Dawnstar
>>155780524I wonder why
>>155777972All I remember is this being TT's sibling show that failed because most characters had lame superpowers
>>155780461
>>155777972They're dorky and boring. Glad they haven't been apart of Superman's backstory for 40 years. L.E.G.I.O.N. should've been their post-crisis replacement.
>>155780800Ah, yes. The Legion of Smilers. Thank god they got replaced.
If you don't like the Legion you don't like super hero comics.
>>155781431
they are... cool...
I've only seen the cartoon as a kid, but I remember really liking it. I've been thinking about getting the Legion DC Finest.
trauma
It had a cool intro, it's unfortunate that they were not able to use "Superboy" due to legal disputes
Best team in comics
The one-two punch of Byrne's MoS removing them of the main continuity and the Bierbaum's terrible writing choices killed the franchise for good.
>>155780524She's the team bike
>>155777972I remember Brainiac 5 being incredibly gay for Superman. Which makes that theory that originally was meant to be a Supergirl show and they just swapped characters and left the writing seem pretty believable.
>>155782560Saturn Girl wtf are you doing
>>155777972>opinion on the Legion of super heroes? they a'ight
>>155777972I was just talking with my co-worker about the Legion of Superheroes. He was shocked I recognized the logo on his shirt.
I like Dreamgirl.
This show had a prototype of Absolute Superman
>>155786219Reading intrusive thoughts at loud
>>155778004Not incorrect.
>>155782600Christ imagine getting kicked in the chest by a super horse.You can't. Your sternum is powdered calcium.
>>155777972it alright
>>155778005Should have just been Mon-El and they could have made him a jerk to Superboy since it was his fault he got trapped for a 1000 years in phantom zoneThen at the end of the season they become friends
>>155777972Imra best girl.
>>155781431Hi Byrne
>>155778004>>155788885Of you get her pregnant and then she split, only one will be pregnant?And what the other way around, if you get one pregnant and they fuse, will she be pregnant?
>>155777972its an integral part of superman's character development and any adaptation that ignores this part of his life automatically sucks stinky hairy cock
>>155779338Peets>this Phantom Girl's feet
younger phantom
damn, im dead
Im a fan of the elephantiasis inflamated ancle build
>>155793532Stealth high heels.
So this show WASN'T part of the DCAU right? Bruce Timm wasn't involved?
>>155793941her wings are really strong if they can just rest on them like that.
>>155793965Yes
>>155777972Why did they make Invincible fat? Got that Caesoh build.
>>155779338Pussy Destroyer.
>>155793532Xj9 ah feet
>>155793965it's part of the Batman The Brave and the Bold universe. James Tucker, show runner for both shows, confirmed it ages ago.That's why they never showed up in that Batman show.
>>155777972no wonder this shit flopped they look like the loonatics but human
>>155794680how should they look?
I remember being disappointed as a kid that the Justice League Unlimited episode where Kara went to the future and joined the Legion didn't spin off into the Legions cartoon so I never watched it
>Shota robot Brainiac 5 didn't become his canon form in comics and other adaptationsReally disappointing. The character peaked in the cartoon.
Season 2 was weird. Too many studio execs intervening.
>>155796164What are the suit mandates?
>>155794680Tard
>>155796003shota you say? that could work, but who should molest him?
>>155794546>it's part of the Batman The Brave and the Bold universeDeadass?

>>155801550Wait, Lad can read minds?
>>155801931you're an idiot.
if you think the league powers are lame, just look at the rejects
>>155802526
>>155802535
>>155802535>>155802555Wow, comic Saturn Girl is mean
I remember kind of liking the show. Not as much as BTAS or JLU, but it was okay.
>>155802526>hair manipulationshe was ahead of her time, some more training and she'll be busted
>>155777972no
>>155785968The staff said it was always Superboy, but they couldn't use the "Superboy" name due to legal issues.
>>155796916>Less girls (that's why Saturn Girl got knocked into a coma, why Ayla remained a loli, etc.)>More action>Another darker, edgier Superman
>>155791892Based.
>>155777972It had one of the cooler art styles of the DCAU
When is the second number of the new reboot dropping out?
>>155802526I like her outfit
>>155801832Totally different characters
She just invaded their place and joined
>>155782560>”Captive forever!”>Dies in five minutes
is this the same of why would they girl using the washing machine?
>>155808363Did you have a stroke?
>>155808763Yes
>>155779338P of puta
>>155796003>Brainiac 5I still don't get how this works—is it just Brainiac pretending to be a kid, or is he somehow the Brainiac's great-great-grandson?
Legion Lost is 10/10, nearly Watchmen tierDC gib Levitz/Giffen or DnA omni
>>155809221I just assume is something like a grandson, with the 5th version
>>155788210Was this Absolute Superman?
>>155808363>that center paneldamn, girl
>>155811629No, it was the ultimate life form
>>155809083Puta Girl
>>155796003>robot Brainiac almost as bad as Bald Brainiac
>>155802555I like when they have two separate heads instead of one head with two faces
>>155777972I liked Archie LegionEven though I prefer Superboy being part of the LoSH
>>155808039Kryptonite used to only depowered him, not also being a toxic element.
Was he our guy?
>>155818141>Gets voted leader>Is demoted between seasonsI know the legion changes leaders a lot. They even had fans write in to vote which was neat. But it was still annoying
>>155818141What a chad
>>155817748Is that black witch?
>>155820295Are they teasing him ?
Im building their team
Timberwolf was my face favorite character in the cartoon. Is he a major character in the comics? Or at least have some cool moments I guess
>>155820295
>>155821530They want to bounce on him
>>155816471No it didn’t. It was always deadly to Kryptonians.
>>155821530cool otherworldly background art
I genuinely miss the Wazzo Wednesday threads they were a fun time
>>155808000Is that pretty much okay nowadays?
>>155785968Supergirl would've showed up the next season had it not been canceled. That's why Brainy got his more human design.
>>155822968You can get some drama out of a Superboy/Phantom Girl pairing.
What is going on?
>>155826134An orgy
>>155777972I was like 3 when the show came out. Too young to really watch it, but I got the Happy Meal Lightning Lad and Validus. I really wanted the Superboy, but you can’t always win.
Emerald empress is supposed to be an adult?
They have some surprisingly fucked up villains>Validus is the infant son of Lightning Lad and Saturn Girl transformed into a giant monster and sent back in time by Darkseid to fight his own parents for years>Emerald Empress is just a puppet being controlled by the Emerald Eye, which is the literal eyeball of some cosmic monster the Guardians created as a proto-Green Lantern>Sun Emperor murdered an alien as a child (mistaking him for a dog; he often tortured small animals) and was institutionalized until he was an adult, at which point his girlfriend experimented on him and turned him into a supervillain, resulting in him immediately burning her alive
>>155828271Yes
>>155822968I mean, nothing is stopping anons from making them again
please explain all the different reboots
>>155810701>>155809221"Brainiac" is a title given to the smartest Coluan. Brainiac 5 is Querl Dox, the great-grandson of Brainiac 2, Vril Dox. Last time I checked Vril Dox was a clone of the original Brainiac but I don't know if that's been changed post-N52
This show went past out radar to show garth losing his arm in piccolo style to imperiex than the space whale.
>>155832313>OG LegionIntroduced in the 50s, continues until the 90s, gets erased from existence during the Zero Hour event>Reboot/Archie LegionEntirely new timeline after Zero Hour, starts from the beginning all over again. Has some changes from the original but doesn't stray hugely away from "classic" Legion style stuff. Eventually gets cancelled>ThreebootAnother new timeline, another new start. This version of the Legion has them and the United Planets government much more openly antagonistic towards each other. Eventually also gets cancelled>Retroboot/Post-Crisis LegionIn a shocking turn of events, Geoff Johns reverts characters back to how they were when he was a kid. Johns' Legion is basically the exact same as the OG Legion for all intents and purposes, they're just from separate timelines. Continues into the New 52, eventually cancelled>RebirthBendis takes a run at the Legion, new timeline, new start. It is steaming garbage>This Current ShitNew timeline, new start. Looks like it'll be pulling from Threeboot in that the Legion are going to be actively against the current social order. Seems cool so far. Seen "Legacyboot" as a potential name but that sucks
>>155835140Thanks
>>155835445The gun is worthless
>>155777972My opinion is a positive one. LOSH was set in the gee whilikers era of science fiction, and managed to not insult the reader's intelligence, mostly. Comic books were for children, but had a higher reading level. (that has kept up with the decline of civilization... and the lack of time we're allowed to enjoy things.) Mike Grell made the series fantastic.The cartoon was as perfect as it could be. The after 2000 comics didn't lose the plot either. The LOSH was a young adult's support group, trying to put people where they could do good, in a world that hated them for being teenagers.
>>155788210I like him, I actually had the idea if Superman X were ever brought into the comics he should be the reborn form of Conner or something
>>155835955>Comic books were for children, but had a higher reading level. (that has kept up with the decline of civilization.No, normalfag
She wants that twink.
I think LOSH could actually have been a better starting point for a new DC movie universe. Supes being a teen and the Legion already knowing all about him makes them easier to get invested in when they have the same level of information the audience has and the fact it is an uncharted movie area of adaptation that could also tackle other Superman stuff in a new context. Sure you would eventually have to reconcile young Superman's time with the eventual time that comes where he's part of the Justice League but I think that would only increase interest for audiences. Also DC has always been more about concepts and ideas rather than characters. Later years had characters catch up and make use of these ideas in new realistic contexts like Marvel. But DC's overall wild umiverse with far out Sci-fi and magic is what I think is the main draw.
Hey total Legion newbie here, why do they not go to a time where he's older and get a powerful Superman instead? Is the excuse is that the Legion getting Superboy is pre-ordained by history/time to take place because his time with the Legion molds him into being the Superman we know? Is that reason something retconned after the fact in some kino story I just made up in my head?
>>155786219They forgot that she isn't telekinetic
>>155836427Well, I assume they can pick Superman on a time they won't ruin the time line, and also, they kind of did that at the start of season 2.They get Superman back, but they get a slightly older and stronger one.If they don't do it, let's just assume it is because they can't
>>155808363I would let her use my shoulder
