I think it will get sales bump off 'The Culling' and go to #30 out lasting the regular series by 3 or 4 issues

The real question is how long before it stops being better than the regular series?

Didn't that happen in Issue #1? Granted I'm two month behind on my reading until this election ends, but I can't imagine it has turned around that much, has it?

Is there a prize? Other than the satisfaction of never having to spend the money to read it again? XD

I'll be optimistic and say DC will give the next to go another 8 issues beyond the 8 the first group got.
So I say issue 16 is the last issue of Legion Lost Vol. 2.
What say you?
HUZZAH! I effin' NAILED it!!!

Well, actually LARDY wins because he was first to say 16.
But hey, if we add in the 0 issue, there are actually 17 issues of LLOST...
Hey, issue number is what I said, and issue number 16 it was! Besides, if someone INSISTS on adding the zero issue, no one guessed "17", and I was the closest without going over! ("Price Is Right" rules, per earlier in the thread! )

What's next? The "How long until the next reboot?" pool?

How about my damn money back for the 8 or 9 issues worth I wasted on the book?
You get the joy and satisfaction of knowing that you're a true legion fan who wastes their money on the team no matter HOW crappy the book gets! Consider yourself blessed by DC for the honor!

The more appropriate question is when will DC try yet another Legionnaires-stuck-in-the-20th/21st-century series?
No matter that every attempt has been an utter failure:
Karate Kid only lasted as long as it did because a movie of the same name was a current hot property (even though the movie and comic had absolutely nothing to do with each other).
Timber Wolf's stay in the 20th was even briefer than Karate Kid's.
Then there was the time that the main book itself took place in the 1990s for a dozen or so issues. DC outdid themselves on that one, killing the momentum of the reboot (and damn near destroying the Legion franchise itself) in the process.
And yet they had to try it again with Legion Lost.
Seriously, what did they expect?

I haven't followed this series after issue #1 despite the great characters involved so I feel a bit awful chipping in at it's demise, but I only hope that it ends with the seven members returning to the 31st century and not either being stuck in the 21st Century (and at the mercy of whichever writer wants to use them/kill them/turn them rogue/whatever this months cliche is/etc) or go the way of the Reboot team and be floating around in extra-dimensional limbo. Or even worse, at the end of their series apparently be on their way home only not to reappear for a year or three while Paul tries to keep up with all the subplots floating around.
We haven't heard for definite that they are returning have we?

I don't think there's been any confirmation either way, though I've heard that Levitz doesn't really like those 7 characters much and wouldn't miss them. You just watch, they'll be floating with the 247 Legionnaires in no time.

I'm pretty sure Timber Wolf is a favorite of Paul's, and he created Dawnstar and Yera (though not as "Chameleon Girl") and co-created Tellus (who was more Lightle's baby than his, but still...)
His dislike for Tyroc is kind of legendary, but he seemed interested in re-inventing him by using him in the last series.
