Welcome EBC!
Indeed. Anyone willing to step up to the plate as a Magno fan should fit in nicely here.
Welcome aboard EBC!
Dreaming Celestial - I finally bailed out on Waid/Kitson, but Shooter and Manapul have drawn me back in. Everytime I think I've read my last Legion story, something draws me back.

Hi! Long time lurker, first time poster here! I figured all the good usernames were taken, so I used the one I go by on ff.net, which is also my real name. (Maybe I'm just not that creative.) I became a Legion fan thanks to the animated series (I'll miss it! *sniff!*), but I've picked up the regular title and I'm getting into it. Now the trade paperback hunt begins! Nice to meet you all, and I hope I can be a useful member of the team, so to speak.
By the way, my sig is from my first posted fic on ff.net, which is here, if you're interested.
-------------------- Then again, didn’t the comic-book store open early on weekends? Bart dashed off in a hurry. Within seconds he was back. Not that early, I guess.

I'm late in this thread (like everything, since I joined last week), so here goes:
Name Jeffrey Age 41 Where you live Montreal, Canada What you do I'm a computer software support guy, and a freelance writer, with credits in the RPG field. I'm also a freelance publisfer/editor and letterhacker.
Legion info I started to read comics when I was 14, but only started with the Legion after 18. I'm a fan of Giffen's Great Darkness saga and the 2boot's 20th century stint. My favorite characters: Phantom Girl (the original), Quislet, Ferro from the 2boot.
Other things you like I'm a fan of science fiction literature and media, so there's a good chance that if you mention a book or TV show/film in that field I've seen or read it. I also enjoy watching the NBA and professional wrestling (they wear their underwear on the outside too!).
If I shared everything I'm into you might end up believing I'm a phony, so I won't.

I'm back, which isn't really news I think.
...but it's good to be back!
And it is good to have you back (in our clutches )

I'm late in this thread (like everything, since I joined last week), so here goes:
Name: Justin Age: Legionnaire-age Where you live Metro Vancouver, Canada What you do Still a student. Design graphics and have a snazzy YouTube page. Meh.
Legion info Unfortunately, I was born after TMK had started to leash the Legion into a dark and scary path... so I got hooked into Reboot. I'm hooked with the continuities and whatnot. Reboot Brainy and Threeboot Cos are my faves. One has a dynamic personality and one doesn't, but that's what I love.
Other things you like Philosophy. Political ethics. Too real-world? I'm a loyal Young Justice fan (hoping that generation wouldn't end up in DiDio's genocide).

Name: Chad Age: 38 Where you live: Rochester, NY What you do: Library drone
I've been reading since..errrr...1979? 1980? The Levitz-Giffen Legion is "my" Legion. Every retcon and reboot takes a little bit more fo my soul away, but I keep buying and reading because there's still a part of me that wants there to be a large team of futuristic superheroes with flight rings saving the day. I have a goofy love of Comet Queen.
I come to Legion World after being in a contest with Sketch Lad on CBR and watching Jokester on Deviant Art. I dabble in drawing and will most likely post some artwork here eventually.
Legion and X-men are the comic books I've read msot consistently over the last 30 years (fuck a duck, I'm OLD) but my favoritest comic of all time is Love and Rockets.

You're not old. We got old here and you're not it.
Welcome AU (<== Gold reference)
Some of us are more old than clever, sorry bout that.
I think we have a member from Rochchester... or Albany. Somewhere in NY not NYC. Lived in Syracuse for awhile myself. Beautiful state.
Anyhow, from your post I take it you'll be posting on the "Bits" forum. Look forward to seeing your stuff.

Exnihil, here: a long-time DCMB Legion poster who is about to defect and take up residence here due to erratic board moderation over there.
So, by way of introduction:
Name: Thomas Age: 35 Where you live: Suburban PA, but usually travelling What you do: IT trainer/consultant
Legion info:
- Favorite characters: Ultra Boy is certainly # 1, along with other faves Mon-el, Brainy, Cham, and Saturn Girl.
- Favorite creators: For writing- Levitz, TMK, and the 3rd coming of Shooter. For art - I favor Cockrum, Grell, Sherman, and, when the mood is right, Jason Pearson or Oliver Coipel.
- Favorite stories: Earthwar, The Universo Project, Terra Mosaic
- When you started reading: 12 years old, "inherited" five long boxes of classic Silver Age stuff. First Legion story I read was the second part of the Sun-Eater story (Death of Ferro Lad) and I was hooked!
- Other things you like: I love travel, and enjoy hiking, biking, cinema, and reading (though time to do any of them seems to be an ever-diminishing commodity).
Looking forward to getting to know some new folks here. See you about.
