BTW, I like the idea of each new Archive listing the issues in question at the start. Because starting with #3, I'll be reading the individual issues--And ain't no way I'm digging through to find those Jimmy Olsen stories.

As if this week's "Doom of the Super-Heroes" wasn't enough, next week features all kinds of doom as well!
Mon - The only way to save Lightning Lad's life is to doom another Legionnaire! (Adv. 312)
Wed - Who has doomed the girl Legionnaires? Could it be... Satan Girl? (Adv. 313)
Fri - It's a whole world full of Doomed Olsens! (JO 72)

Hey, guys! Guess what *isn't* cancelled?
That's right! Re-reading the Legion will continue on as normal, whether there's a current book being published or not, or whether they turn it into Justice Legion or Green legion Corps or Bat-Legion or whatever!
So come join us!

So which one is tomorrow? I think the Jimmy Olsen story technically comes next in the Archives?

Hmm... you're right. I wonder how I got them mixed up?
Let's stick with the Archive order and do Jimmy Olsen next.

Starting with Archives #3 I'll be reading individual issues. There are two coming up that aren't Adventure, right? Jimmy Olsen and an issue of Superboy? (The one with the great cover!)

So, in going through my LSH collection, I realized a few things: I don't have Adventure #322, though I have read it before (where?) as I know it has some important Protean / Antarres info. I also don't have Adv #336 part two of the Starfinger story, which I've never read!
Also, I found that I do indeed have Superboy #147, but I'm also positive I've never read it before.
And a whole series of Shootee Adventure stories I've only read once: 2nd Universo (which I loved), Unkillables, Wanderers, and a few others.
I'm really looking forward to all of these!

Question - has the 'Earthwar' story from Superboy #241-245 been reprinted anywhere? The latest Archive I can find is #13 which has some of Levitz's early work but I don't think it includes Earthwar. And unless I missed something, their Showcase volumes are only up to Shooter so far.

No reprints of Earthwar that I'm aware of. I believe it would take at least two more Archives to get to it (assuming any more ever get published).
Earthwar is available on Comixology, however, if that helps.

By the way, I assume the MWF schedule is still working for everyone. If not, we can talk about changing it for Archive #4.

I wondered where your review of JO 76 was.
Feel better soon.

I was worried Lucy Lane negatized your love of comic books forever! She's the worst that way!

So hopefully the busy Mr. Ester stops in tonight to check this. We're now at the end of Archive #3. Should we let that thread ride and pick up #4 on Monday? (that's what we did on the last one which also ended on a Wednesday).
Sound good everyone?

That comes with the dire responsibility of listing all the issues in the archive! Do you dare try it?!
