Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Dr. Gym'll's Cultural Rarities Oh Yeah, That Forum: The Titans Teen Titans #16

Got my copy as soon as the comic shop opened!! Woo-hoo... you're gonna love it!!!!

Sweet! I now have a reason to drop by the comic shop today!!!

Will there be a "Calling the Roll" for this issue of the Titans?
I eagerly await Deanlegion's "Legion/Titans Hair" thread!

OMG, what am I going to do with almost 3 months without any Legion at all?
>gasp<
>gasp<
-deep breath-
think calm thoughts
think calm thoughts
....aaarrrggggggg....

Won't get my copy until tomorrow. C'mon, make with the spoilers!!

Indeed. I don't know if I'll be making it by the shop today (I forgot it was out today so I didn't go on my lunch break.)

lol

Ok, I'm about to run out and get it..

I just can't stand it anymore! Is Garth in it as Crystal Element Guy? Will time continue to "Blink"? Is there a possibility that another Superboy will die? Jeckie or Sneckie? The Time Trapper or Brother Blood again? Does a new future mean a different past? New past, different future, whatever. I don't know!
It's killing me.

Preview! Isn't there supposed to be a preview of the new LSH?

If you're at the store and are a Legion completist, you should probably pick up the new "Previews" catalog too cause it has the Kitson Legion of Super Heroes #1 cover as one of its own covers.

I beleive that's in next week's Titans/Legion Special

Yep. The preview is next week.

The Persuader looks great on the cover. What the heck is he a Daxamite? That man is t-t-t-tough!

Bart's eyes are positively glowing as he slips a Legion flight ring on his hand. Very nice panel.

I finally get my wish. Robin meets the Legion! (and it's NOT an Elseworlds)I wanted it to be Dick but I'll settle for Tim.

What does the blurb on the last page mean?
Next Month: TITANS TOMORROW begins!

I don't dare say too much at once. I'm sure we'll be adding a lot more to this tonight...and I really don't want to be the one to break the news about Legion World.

Robin met the Legion in LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES Vol.4 #100.

And, to Legion World.

And there's discussion going on in this thread as well.

I forgot. It was that scene just at the end of the Legionnaires stranded in the 20th century story arc wasn't it?

Cool.

I'm not really up on today's Titans, has that thing between Superboy and Wonder Girl been building for a while? It was a cute moment when they discovered they didn't have to talk shop...but then what to talk about?

Kon disappeares and reappeares in just a second or two with longer hair (a spit curl?) and a new outfit.
Ok, time travel gives me headaches too.

Raven looks damned cool. The Karate Kid - Robin bit was cute. I'll bet everybody thinks Robin is Dick Grayson though.

-heh heh- Chameleon and Beast Boy. "Hey, stop that!"

What could Dreamer's vision mean? "They're not going home..."?

After Universe Ablaze I wasn't sure I'd enjoy this but now I'm all hyped up for next week!

I'm assuming she refers to the fact that the Titans will get back ten years later in the next issue #17 and that the Legion as we know it will be gone after this story.

Is that the plan for the Titans? A 10 year gap? Grife.

Probably not. They get a glimpse of the future and then return to make sure it never happens type deal.

They will be getting a new Aquagirl and Speedy soon too. Check out AQUAMAN and GREEN ARROW*.

* No I don't work for DC, but I should.

Egads! Will someone spoil me silly about the details of what happens to Legion World?

*sigh*

Well, I should at least try to get that original page to add to my others of Legion World. That way I'll have its birth (reveal) to its death.

I just wonder what the fate of those onboard is? Chuck (and maybe Gear) were there at the time.

Yeah...like Gary is saying, that seems really odd to me to blow LW up with all of the tech and more importantly people inside. Unless they're going for a huge sense of loss here.

...no offense to Mr. McKone, but that is one scary-looking Kid Quantum II in the page above.

Also of note, "A dozen Legionnaires are already hurt, maybe worse." The Cadets and Chuck are confirmed to be on Legion World. "Mon-El" [their mistake?] and XS are on Earth in battle.

The others who were not depicted in this issue -

Live Wire, Invisible Kid ([HOPE]maybe he's invisible?[/HOPE]), Violet, Kinetix, Gates, Sensor, Ferro, Gear, and Timber Wolf.

That has to be a reference to Legion #38 where we saw several Legionnaires down.

Just so the others know though, we've got Star Boy, Ultra Boy, Superboy, Starfire, Cyborg and Brainiac5 all are pushing for all they're worth to keep Legion World from breaking up. Maybe LW will survive? (the prospects don't look good though)

I should have figured it would be more of a 'guest starring' or 'cameo' bit for the Legion in the TT issue instead of a full-on crossover. It's kind of upsetting to know so many people can get left in the dust and yet they'll go and do something major like blow LW and possibly all of the major players on it up.

I'm a little pissed of doing big stuff like this, just because it feels like a, "We're not going to see this reality ever again anyway, so let's mess everything up for shock value"-type thing. I wouldn't be shocked to have a few Legionnaires killed along the way (a la Universe Ablaze) and then be left for dead as we lose this reality. I'm actually upset about the Reimagining for the first time now, just at how rushed and carefree such big events to the Legion are becoming.

I should probably take on the mindset that "The reboot Legion ended at Legion #33 (or #38 for me)" and just enjoy the tale for what it's worth.

I hate to even think this let alone say it but maybe with the reboot coming they are just killing off a lot of Legionnaires (not to forget at least R.J. and various SP members and those of Shikari's race manning the Threshholds) for the shock value.

Hopefully, some of the Legionnaires who are currently unaccounted for (including some of the injured) are on Earth with Mon and XS. A ray of hope: all of them, including Gear, are on next issue's cover. The worst thing Waid and Johns could do is piss fans off by turning this into a bloodfest. It's supposed to be fun, dammit.
