Name: that's classified Age: 31 (that should be classified) From: Minnesota, where the grass is green (when it isn't cold), the lakes are clear (when it isn't cold), and the skies are blue (when it isn't cold.)
Legion lore: A fan of DnA, I signed on when they did. "Widening Rifts" is my favourite arc. Chuck Taine came in swinging a wrench, no powers just gutsy; he became my favourite character. I've picked up a few of the archive editions, I can see why fans are so devoted to the team.
Other comics: I'm a Batfan too. JSA and JLA too. PLANETARY is good when it comes out, and SOJOURN was a great book.
When not reading comics, I'm playing softball or checking out some band at the club. I do work, but not in a history museum. I'm a technophobe, better with an abacus than a computer. Took me a while to get here, but I made it. See you fanatics around.

Name: Will Age: 32 Where you live: Aurora, CO
Legion info: My favorite characters are Wildfire, Timber Wolf, Cosmic Boy, Dream Girl, and GiGi Cusimano (all Post-Boot of course). I started reading LSH when Bouncing Boy and Duo Damsel got married way back in Superboy # 200. And my favorite story was the Great Darkness Saga.
I love playing tabletop RPG's, especially Mutants and Masterminds, and am planning on starting a Legion group for that game soon.

-Most recent movie I saw in theater was Kill Bill Vol. 2 again, which was freaking awesome. I can't get enough of it, and I can't reccomend it enough. Go see it!
-Favorite Legion cover: I'm going to go with Keith Giffen's cover during the Omen and Prophet story with Ultra Boy, Mon-El, and a few others shooting out of the cover. Very dramatic and it's always stuck with me as a favorite for some reason.
-Favorite sport is hockey. I played it for over ten years, from when I was a wee lad to a high-school star, and it's still my favorite watching it today (although I never get the chance to play it anymore).
Everyone else, I expect answers!

Movie: I don't go to the cinema. When I was younger I became a bit worried that if I "jumped" or anything then other people would point at me and laugh at me! What started as an irrational worry has now overwhelmed my brain and I don't think I've been to the cinema for a few years now...
Cover: Hmm. I liked the Alan Davis ones. But my favourite was LSH 297 or something - the one with the Legion academy! They all looked great! Shame Lamprey never appeared again though!
Sport: Pah! I became a comics fan coz I hate sport!
