Don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere or not, but I was catching up on Booster Gold issues and was pleasantly surprised to see the Giffen-era Legion (looks to be during a rollover from 70s outfits to 80s outfits) make a sizable guest appearance in Booster Gold #43.
It includes Proty slapping people Cosmic Boy-style. Always a treat.

It got me reading Booster Gold.

According to the DC Comics site, the Legion will appear in ACTION COMICS #5 and #6:
"Fresh off of his bestselling FLASHPOINT miniseries, industry legend Andy Kubert will be joining critically acclaimed writer Grant Morrison for a special, two-issue arc of ACTION COMICS in DC COMICS-THE NEW 52. Issues #5 and #6 will guest star the Legion of Super-Heroes, while also laying groundwork for things to come much, much later in Superman’s story. And keep an eye out for Krypto!"

Thumbs up to this news, as well as the Krypto tidbit - mostly for the fact I'm enjoying Morrison's revision of Superman's early days and don't mind continuing to read about it.

Yeah, I agree that this was a good catch. It really explains the larger context and ramifications of the Magic Wars, and also why magic continually seems to crop up in a big way in the 30th/31st centuries/

Oh wow, haven't seen Saturn Girl in a cloak for ages, or Lightning Lad, for that matter.
And has Cosmic Boy *ever* worn a cloak? Cool. He looks a little blocky, but I'm used to the Legionnaires having completely different faces and / or body types with every artist...
