Legion of Substitute Super-Heroes #1. Written by Mark Millar, art by Bryan Hitch! Marvel's hottest team crosses over to DC and takes over the most unlikely of teams! The Substitue heroes get the spotlight for the first time in a decade, as Polar Boy, Stone Boy, Chlorophyll Kid, Night Girl, Infectious Lass and Fire Lad take up the mantle of super-heroing. But don't expect this to light-hearted, as their first order of business is weapons-inspecting the Khund Empire, and all hell breaks loose!
For April:
Legion of Substitue Super-Heroes #2, by Millar and Hitch. The battle with the Khunds escalates, as the subs must deal with not only the Khunds and their weapons of mass destruction, but now they have Grimbor the Chainsman, a 30th century sexual sado-masochist after them, and he's kidnapped Fire Lad and Chlorophyll Lad! Plus: Matter-Eater Lad joins the fray!
Legion of Substitue Super-Heroes #3, by Millar and Hitch! Beginnings, Part 3! Matter-Eater Lad assembles a team, as the sexual sadist Grimbor the Chainsmen tortures Chlorophyll Lad and Fire Lad! Plus the Khunds! Also this issue: Night Girl drops a big revelation, and a hero makes the ultimate sacrifice!
For May:
Legion of Substitute Super-Heroes #4 by Millar and Hitch! The team deals with the death of Fire Lad last issue, and takes some down time. Plus, more on the Khundian menace and Night Girl coming out of the closet. Also, the team becomes divided as Tenzil and Polar Boy vie for leadership!

Check out this interview with Mark Millar on www.pornisart.net ! He says:
"We've decided to just do away with the whole numbers thing anyway for the Subs series. It just seems like such a 20th century thing and now we're in the 21st. I like to think of my stories as a puzzle, something beyond linear. Something fun, for the family, especially for horny teenagers in the family, ya know? And for pot-heads too, they're pretty cool."
Wow, Millar is just so right! Numbers suck anyway! I guess Subs #9 and #10 are just latest Subs and even newer Subs now!

He finally confronts the rest of the Subs, but do they have the conscious that he does? Plus, Evillo and the Devil's Dozen! And what is the connection between Omega and Chlorophyll Kid? Only by Millar, Hitch or Byrne!
