Situated in the Legion headquarters, the Hall of Heroes holds statues of the many fallen legends who have sacrificed themselves to save the universe, planets, loved ones and freedom.

Here's a look at the last moments of those Legionnaires who have departed. Some have returned from the dead, while others weren't quite as dead as originally suspected. But all were willing to give their lives for the ideals of the Legion.
