When "Legion of Three Worlds" #1 comes out later this month, I plan to do a set of annotations over at my site, the Omnicom.
Legion World, Matthew's "Legion Abstract", and Doug Wolk's "Final Crisis Annotations" are three other sites that I suspect may be interested in doing the same thing (though I haven't asked Matthew or Doug yet).
Has anyone here discussed annotating the series when it comes out? Or, to avoid duplication of effort, could I ask you guys collectively to help me out over there? I certainly don't know everything, and my expertise is mostly with Pre-Crisis (and I plan to come here anyway asking who so-and-so is). Maybe even a joint effort with the annotations published in multiple locations. Wolk's site has more readers in general, but I expect our sites to have more Legion knowledge.

We should at least keep this topic here as a reference site for link to these annotations, n'est pas?

Part 1 of my annotations are up, based on the cover and 5-page preview at Newsarama. This is the easy part; inker Scott Koblish said the annotators will have a meltdown trying to identify everyone on pages 6-15.

The big Pérez boast in #1? Already? Jajaja, I'd say. And I'm suddenly infatuated with spoilers.

I'm simultaneously looking forward to it and dreading it. I'll post back here later tonight when I'm done with the entire issue, then you guys can help fill in the blanks with what I've missed or gotten wrong.

Well I've got the entire first issue done. There were some really obscure entries (like the planet Taltar, from ADV 368, which featured the Mutiny of the Super-Heroines), some easter eggs in the portrait gallery (hint: translate the interlac), the return of Myg, and even Proty if you look hard enough.
Plus, of course, the maximum squee-age at seeing group portraits of all three Legions.

On the page where Superboy-Prime starts burning the statutes, and before holo-Olsen mentions the LSV, there is a panel where holo-Olsen asks SBP if he's back for more information on the Legion. Just to the right of Olsen is Proty. The Interlac below the figure spells "pr," with the rest being cut off (though shouldn't the p be capitalized, and have a different symbol?). In the same panel are Stone Boy and Color Kid.

Being a relatively new LSH fan, joining with the most recent version, the comic is pretty good without knowing all this stuff it does add a real texture to the universe to their work.
