Jeepers, Jan! I know it's annoying being called onto a Legion mission immediately after the drag show, but you could at least make a better attempt to remove your eye shadow than that!

Thank you DC for helping me make a decision. I am dropping Legion Lost for sure.

Why are they doing another crossover just when Legion Lost was finally getting it's own storyline back? Either make it an independent Legion title or send our beloved heroes home! I don't want the Legion so intertwined with other 21st century heroes/series that I have no intention of ever reading. Legion Lost could stand on it's own merit if DeFalco and DC tried writing decent material.

Too soon to start shipping Element Lad and Chemical Kid? There seems to be a whole lot of mentoring going on, and curious minds want to know why Jan is so interested in 'educating young men.'

I couldn't agree MORE. I thought we would start to get some spotlight issues focusing on all the secrets the Lost members seem to be keeping from each other.

I think they will soon. DC's blog announced both DeFalco and Woods are heading elsewhere, and given the gossip I read online (mostly on bleeding cool) I guess january 2013 will see another round of pruning among the lower selling books.
BTW, I also wish DC put a new writer on LoSH. Not only I think the book is bad, but it looks like it's also selling worse than ever.

well thats good news!
and i agree about the Losh book. i honestly haven't liked any of it since levits came back. i'm not in love with the stories or the characterizations.
and there's just too many questions and mess ups. like the fate five being rectcond.

I don 't really want to see Legion Lost cancelled. They could stay lost longer and take a long time getting home. I just want them off 21st century earth and rid of their crossovers with other DC titles. Give them good writing and great adventures and this diverse cast could make a great sci-Fi ensemble book traveling a few years through space and time before finally getting safely home. Just keep them true to their Legion roots and the series could really take off, but have them stuck on 21st earth with a thousand other super heroes living near by is just bad writing.

Yes. They've been transformed into the mundane and ordinary. Also, don't get me started on the lackluster adversaries.

This would be a great opportunity to have the Lost team visit various times between the 21st and 31st century as they try to stumble home in a broken time machine. Pretty much wide open territory for writers.

Heck yeah! There's tons of potential for adventures between the 'current day' and the 'Legion future!'
Great idea, FC!

One crossover such a storyline would enable would be them running into the old Atari Force team in the 23rd century. Having the Legion Lost crew mingle with Martin Champion, Tempest, Dart, Blackjack, Taz, Babe and Morphea would be an interesting storyline and allow for the comeback of a great Sci-Fi series.
