Just the opposite. Dan DiDio said there would be just one Legion after L3W. Presumably the Time Trapper will eradicate the other two universes/time lines or whatever without affecting the Multiverse.
Which Legion will be left? well imagine the conversation in 2006:
Geoff Johns: Dan, I want to bring back the classic Legion from the Levitz era. Let's spend the next two years re-introducing them into the DCU. Dan DiDio: Cool Geoff Johns: And we'll make them part of Superman's past again and feature them in Action Comics. Dan DiDio: Great and to promote it we'll issue lots of TPBs, and hardcovers and get them on the cover of the San Diego Comic Con magazine. Geoff Johns: Fantastic. And then to round it off we have a mini series where they meet the other versions of the Legion. Dan DiDio: Oh yes! I can see the bucks flying in. Geoff Johns: And then at the end of the mini I kill them off again. Dan DiDio: Geoff you are a genius.
It isn't going to happen
It is conflicting information isn't it?
LOL your story was funny but I don't think it's that bad. I think it's more a case of disogranization than cruelty.
The Action Legion sold nicely, it's numbers helped Action Comics and they were rock solid numbers ...DC would love to pull that off monthly, I think Johns would too, and I think Didio would too...it's just they don't use common sense or something and they take advantage of the Legion fanbase.
I mean this is a horrible idea if it's what DC is planning, a 3 boot mini or something coming off the LO3W. I actually wish Johnston would stop publishing Legion rumors...even if they are true. I want to hear good news...

If Bedard comes back I wonder if he'll bring Calero with him. That'd be good. I like Manapul but there was something about Calero's art that particularly appealed to me.

Unfortunately for all both of us Calero legion fans, that's not too likely. Calero has a Darkman gig at Marvel. Maybe you should all come to the Baltimore Comic Con and ask the creators yourselves.

I hope you are counting me as one of the both. If not, make it three.

Considering you got your info off Rich here, I take it with a pinch of salt. And LSHv5 concluding? Not very surprising. But Levitz/Giffen and not Johns and/or Perez? Give an old man what he wants, for the latter.
And I don't see how Lo3W can fiddle with the awkward time-space anomalies any better than LSHv4105, or Legionnaires 61, which had the title of "If I Could Turn Back Time". Eye...ronic!

Geoff Johns + Time Trapper = solution
My guess is that the reboot/3boot will be from 'pocket universes' - not one of the 52 Earths - so the Trapper can wipe them out without affecting the multiverse. Geoff Johns has stated that the Superboy pocket universe is canon so adding two more doesn't seem a big deal for bad ol TT.
