Legion World Forums LEGION CLUBHOUSE The Legion of Super-Heroes Long Live the Legion! LSH #50 Spoilers

I'm about 80% joking.

Is the other 20% a certain misgiving at the notion of damn near every futuristic hero inheriting the job/urge/title via bloodline ?

Because it does unnerve me, just a little...

Well, we know Shady is.
And XS.
Brainy, too.
sigh

But!
We know Gates isn't!

There.
I knew I loved the little buy for good reasons!

...Yet.

Remember, even Shady was around for almost 20 years before we had any hint of predecessor heroines.

Too true.
sigh

I DID kind of hope that someone would establish a genetic connection between Gates and Shikari ~ not for ancestor/hero connection so much, but for romance possibilities!
lol

STILL haven't bought it! I have avenged you all!

(swoon)

My hero!

I have to say, reread Shooter's run yesterday (it was a SNOW DAY!).

Anyways, really enjoyed it, but when it came to issue 50, I looked at the cover, and well, I just put all the comics away.

someday I want to talk to Shooter and find out how he wanted issue 50 to end up, but until then I'll just see issue 49 as the end of the threeboot.

No sweat, Lashy. I'll send you my copy!

Don't threaten me!

Do not make me call a time-out, people!

I returned the issue to the store today.

Just now, I was surprised to receive an e-mail from a certain DC executive who will go nameless, in response to an e-mail I sent him after the issue came out. He offered what I would characterize as an insincere apology. However, he quoted my e-mail, which suggested that he did actually read it, unlike my previous e-mail to him which he answered with a form letter. This is the first thing he's done that's made me think he has any desire to keep his customers happy.

I'm not at all sorry I returned the comic, though. If the store had refused to take it, I would have kept the cover and thrown away the interior pages.

Still haven't bought it!

I spent $61 today at the CBS and not one cent of it was on LSH # 50!

I did give it a quick flip-thru, though... thanks space for spoilers threads is all I'll say.

I haven't bought it either. Swear words can't express my disappointment at the cancellation so DC not getting another penny of my money until the LSH returns does.

Me either!

I kind of want to though, for kicks! It sounds hysterical!

I bet plenty are in the back issue bins.

The most hated comic of all Legion history?

I dunno, Sean Erin and Proty/Garth probably come close. And then there's the wonder that was Dr. Mayavale.

The Mayavale story at least has camp value.

And even if one dislikes the Proty/Garth story, there's plenty of other groovy things in that issue.

And at least the other issues mentioned above weren't the ends of their series.

I don't think people would have condemned issue 50 so much if it hadn't been such a letdown after all the hype of the solicit and the many plot threads that were inexplicably ignored and left unresolved.
