I might pick this up, especially with the lack of Phantom Girl moments since after "Cry Wolf".

One has to ask, how do "rogue Thanagarian pirates" differ from regular Thanagarian pirates?

Non-rogue pirates are called "privateers".

Bumping this up cause it looks like it's gonna be good! 
Then again, didn’t the comic-book store open early on weekends? Bart dashed off in a hurry. Within seconds he was back. Not that early, I guess.

I loved this book. I just had one question, though . . . where does this fit into the continuity? It looks like it falls between seasons 1 and 2, but if that's the case, why is Superman there? If it's before the end of the first season, why are they wearing the season 2 outfits? Can you explain it, cause I can't.

Probably the same explanation for why Element Lad's outfit matches neither season 1 NOR season 2, nor does it even do a very good job of approximating his look in previous appearances in teh comic. (in which his uniform was has always been white...apparently, they don't want a pink uniform in the comic.)
I guess a rationalizing writer/artist could say, "well, they change their outfits more than is apparent from the toon"). Or somesuch.
Nevertheless ...
<span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">I was quite ecstatic to finally see a spotlight on Element Lad! And, the spotlight on Tinya was intact, so two for one! The only downside was, in fact, his costume snafu.</span></span>

I was glad to see E-Lad get some substantive lines!
Funny, that in both retellings we've seen of his origin, he's a minor player. What's up with that?
E-Lad's ADVENTURE origin is still the best. I guess that one would now be considered too bloody for kids, so an environmental collapse is a fair substitute.
Makes the people of Trom seem different, though.
I like scenes with Tinya and her mother here- unlike in other versions.

Just got it. I enjoyed this PG spotlight but it just underlined how much I miss her and her fellow Legionnaires on the TV screen. Jan's costume isn't bad, but I wasn't fond of "Roxxas" being demoted to a white collar corporate baddie, or the destruction of Trom being caused by natural disasters. I was a wee lass when the first Trom was destroyed by genocidal space pirates. I didn't scar me for life (or did it?)
The art made the characters look younger than in previous issues but it was nicely done.
Gawds, I miss these guys. Saturday mornings aren't the same without them.
