Ohmygosh! Love the splash page of all the Legionnaires busy updating their Facebook profiles while the universe collapses! "Bouncing Boy is... sad at the imminent destruction of all that is. :-("
But seriously, I do love that page! And GREAT to see Bouncing Boy (and is that Duplicate Damsel down the bottom?) back on this team full-time again! And much as I love the Frank costume re-designs, I'm glad they didn't touch Chuck's. It's perfect as is.
Nice to see Gates and XS there too - though it's gonna take me some time to get used to seeing them interacting with this version of the team.
Could do without Gim's "Tell us what to do!" line to Brainy though. I know this type of crisis is tailor-made for Querl but ugh! to the constant writer-worshipping of Brainiac 5 at the expense of the rest of the team!
Still excited for this version of the team!

Excuse me but can you please direct me to the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles?

LOL I agree ... but we are only seeing a profile of each of them sporting their new cycle-bathing suits. Let's hope a full view looks more appealing all around. I can't wait to pick up this issue today! It should hopefully tie up all the loose ends and I think the Espionage Squad in the 21st century should make it back to their normal time soon (unless Brainy prolongs their stay with some Brainiac related emergency as the preview suggests he might). Only 1 and a half months left until LSH #1 comes out!

Isn't this the plot of every other Legion-related story since Foundations?

I think I've stopped looking at the 'big picture' (like plot, story-telling, characterisation) when it comes to enjoying comic books, and just get my thrills from the little things (like 'ooooh there's Chuck' and 'isn't it nice that Gim is supporting Yera' and so on).

Most of the dialog can be shifted around to any other character. Sad, considering that I could usually (usually, not all the time) tell who TMK were using without seeing them.

As long as Robinson doesn't break any toys before Levitz gets here, I'm content to let him play out the string. But I am getting worried.
I still don't get the need to tinker with Mon-El in the modern era. This is partly what lead to the mess last time they wanted to do stuff with Lar. With any luck the PZ is restored, he's thrown in it and away we go. Anything else will make me extremely grouchy.

There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

Who was that standing next to Polar Boy on the splash page, with the sort of up-arrow theme to his costume?
Should I have recognized that character? Will there be head-slappage?
