HURRY, before Puffy Daddy Ami or whatever beats you to it!

It's 1000 Years from today
They saved a fat rich man
and then they
Formed they biggest team in the universe
They're LEGION! The Legion of Super-Heroes!

With members from so many planets
And other galaxies
Villains and evil aliens are just zeroes
They're LEGION! The Legion of Super-Heroes!

Expect lots of Supergirl
She used to be in the Justice League
They may have had her first
but now she's LEGION! The Legion of Super-Heroes!

(catchy musical interlude)

They're all LEGION! The Legion of Super-Heroes!
"Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes"

Rocketed away from Krypton
Shortly after his birth
Li'l Kal-El found himself
Living on planet Earth

He had some super-powers
A pet dog named Krypto
But Kal-El was kind of lonely
But why he didn't know

<tempo quickens>
Then one day three teens appeared
From the future in a bubble
Said "Kal-El, you gotta come with us
The future's in lotsa trouble!"

<back to normal>
So Kal-El saved the future
From Hitler, Dillinger, and Nero
Became a full-fledged member
Of the Legion of Super-Heroes!

Now he flies to the 31st century
Whenever the Legionnaires
Now he's got a whole lotta super-friends
Including one that bounces like a ball!

It's Superboy... Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes... they're the greatest cosmic team... Superboy... Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes...
<fade out>

I think the Legion theme song has already been written.

By Timbuk 3.
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a 31st Century dream
At night we ride through Weisinger Plaza in suicide flight rings
Sprung from cages out on Winath and Braal,
Iron-skinned, twelfth-level brained and steppin’ out over the wall
Baby this time rips the bones from your back
It’s a death trap, it’s a suicide rap
We gotta get out while we’re young
Legionnaires like us, baby we were born to run
[With apologies to Simon and Garfunkle]

The Brainiac Song

A winter’s day
In a deep and dark future Metropolis;
I am alone,
Gazing from my Yellow Rocket to the streets below
, a freshly fallen Wall of Time to Superboy slow.
I am a Brainiac,
I am an Colu.
I’ve built walls,
A Fortress Lad deep and mighty,
That Fatal Five may penetrate.
I have no need of leadership; leadership causes pain.
It’s Light Lass and it’s Star Boy I disdain.
I am a Brainiac,
I am an Colu.

Don’t talk of love,
But I’ve heard the word before;
It’s sleeping in my 12th level intellect.
I won’t disturb the slumber of Lightning Lad* that has died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a Brainiac,
I am a Colu.

I have my data books
And my Supergirl to protect me;
I am shielded in my force field,
Hiding in my lab, safe from Universo's stab.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a Brainiac,
I am an Colu.

And Validus feels no pain;
And an Computo never dies.

* Can substitute Blok, Dream Girl, Mon'el, Etc.
When there's trouble you know who to call (Team Legion!)
From the future they can see it all (Team Legion!)
When there's evil on the attack,
You can rest knowing they gotcher back!
Cause when the universe needs heroes on patrol, Team Legion, Go!

"You've Got to Fight for Your Right to Klorndy"
as performed by the Beastie Boys

"Kick It!" (Karate Kid intro)

Man, the Public Service is such a drag
The White Witch used to be an ugly, old Hag.
Legion HQ is now up for sale
Ultra Boy is kickin' back with Silverale

You've Got to Fight
for Your Right
to Klorndy

Grandpa gets all mad and shakes his fists
Light Lass is now workin' on the Reservists
SP's keep a yellin' "Who's them up there?"
Awww, SP's just jealous, we're the Lee - jun - airs!

refrain
Legion-naires
Legion-naires
fight whatever evil dares
Mayavale, Regulus
they take on big Validus
Look out, here come Legionnaires!

Funny thing is, I made up a Legion cartoon theme song when I was 10 and I still sing it to myself every now and then.

Say what you will about Proty II, he could sure write lyrics!

I also love "The Ballad of the Legion of Substitute Heroes"!
Could you hum it to the tune of the Beverly Hillbillies? smile
Scott, I'm amazed you even acknowlede that issue even exists!
Issue? What issue? That's just a special, six-panel color Legion flyer I have. wink

I know you have to have special gloves when you read that issue Scott, so your hands don't bleed...

Stupid, stupid Legion Annual!!!!!

Don't get me wrong, besides that "revelation" (or what I like to refer to as the retcon from hell), the annual was fantastic, seeing all the Legionnaires coming together again... sigh! Tis bittersweet!!!
agreed.
