Some more Legion
We've had prime, we've had the fate of the Legions, here is some pure fannish stuff.

I previously posted one page and according to the calculations below 3 more pages were available to meet the quota.

Even I can't name everyone on here but for me the most notable are the superperts, jimmy olsen 'elastic lad', lana lang 'insect queen' , pre crisis supergirl, kent shakespeare, quislet, two computos, five year gap Laurel, Ferro Lad, threeboot Mon-El (his story makes so much sense now) and the founders from Adventure 247. I'm sad there was no legionnaires from the cartoon or the DCAU (which I think is in the multiverse for sure, didn't we see Batman Beyond?)

Its hard to pick the best parts. The founders meeting the legion from a time when they were just formed, L.E.G.I.O.N being included (although there was no vril), the rebirth of the green lanterns (with just the words 'sentient found'), the new memorial room with *shock* 'futuristic' monuments, its liked they saved all the best bits for last. For the last page here is 3/4 from one and 1/4 from another showing some of the lighthearted moments that makes me love Legion.

Remember Brainy has been planning this since 'The Lightning Saga'. He is totally taken for granted, I think he likes it that way. This issue finally felt like a legion story with added bits. No 'Superman to the rescue', just Legion

	Now everytime Mary Marvel appears, remember that she did turn some policemen into stone and didn't fix them, and that she did in fact have an orgasm by holding a magical pole... sob (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She did, however, gleefully bludgeon Donna Troy with Kyle Rainer (or was it the other way around?) and that pretty much negates anything else in my book. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And they actually got something good out of it (IE: Duplicate Damsel's new power). It's like making lemonade out of horse shit. Guys, I think Geoff Johns may be a witch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hmm I don't like it. I was always a fan of the idea that each triplicate had a different aspect of her persona when separated. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wasn't that Triad? that's the Zero Hour Triplicate Girl, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Originally that's the way the character was done. It kinda fell off when Computo killed one and she became Duo Damsel. Triad , had this brought back in spades, perhaps alittle too much :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The "different personality" shtick didn't really surface pre-ZH reboot. Luorno's three selves were pretty much indistinguishable from one another. There was this one story post-Computo where the two remaining selves had individual personalities, but I think that turned out to be mind control or something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The "different personality" shtick didn't really surface pre-ZH reboot. Well, yes it did, it was a (admittedly retconned) feature of the 5YL Legion, but did get quite a bit of airplay in various media (including the RPG) We discover that one of her had been unfaithful to Chuck, for example.
