Legion. As you've never seen them before

[04nbod.insanejournal.com]

Not even following the cut will guide you to Mon-El's (or M'onel's) masculinity

You think they mixed up Frankenstein and Frankensein's monster?



What makes me LOL more, Element lad and Mon wearing tiaras or Mon riding a winged, tasselled horse like he was a medieval Harry Potter. Fairy!Vi is too adorable.



Rancho Legion, Cowblob!Proty and Brainy in a monocle. So mad its awesome?



It took so long for me to realise its Rokk in perspective and not Colossal Boy





I expect more from Cos. Don't give in to perv pressure!



No Sensor..no! Also, more perving

Chibi-Sneckie swallowing Gates had me in stitches.

FOR NAAARNIA!!!

bah! Brainy's such a genius, mother fucker invented himself.

Gates riding side-saddle.

GOLD.

Oh, I love you so much. I was looking all over for that story! It is absolutely hilarious. (Though, perv that I am, I'm somewhat disappointed by Brainy's choice of sleepwear. The fact he sleeps with Koko is amusing, though.)

Mon-El is a pretty, pretty Princess.

There goes another one who grew up watching She-Ra.

I would read stories about sword-and-sorcery Legion..

[kenn_el.insanejournal.com]

There was an Elseworlds Legion story that was basically the Legion in Camelot. Rokk was Arthur, Imra Gweneviere, and Garth Lancelot, with the others as assorted knights, etc. I liked it a lot, and wish I still had it.

I still do, it's nice, and isn't afraid to show the Guinevere/Lancelot relationship as being the remarkably shitty thing to do that it was.

[04nbod.insanejournal.com]

I'm doing my final year dissertation on the role of the hero in myth using arthurian stories as a basis and the part of the Gwinevere/lancelot story that always makes me rage is when she calls him a traitor because he was tricked into sleeping with Elaine. What was going through that biches head?

DC, I would like one of the 52 to be a universe where each of those pages is in continuity. Thank you.

I'd forgotten this issue, it's great!

As B5 is the product of the Coluan Brainiac program, and his mother was a cold hearted bitch who didn't care about him, I'd say using him as Frankenstein's monster analogy sort of works.

Mon-El is wearing a crown, though I agree that Jan is DEFINITELY in a tiara. Colleen Doran...

Oh and that's not a monocle B5's wearing, that's a pince-nez.

Mmmmm, Garth and Rokk in a Top Gun variant... the subtext.. it's NICE!

The starfield pattern bordered by a big red M is a nice look for Mon. Somebody should look into something similar for Donna with a big red W. If we can't get the chin-high disco dancing outfit back, she should at least have a W on her costume somewhere.

I totally adore spooky Legion, and Mon-El is a pretty pretty princess...

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

"For the Honour of Daxam!" (Pretty men and flying horsie = She-Ra rather than He-Man)

[psychop_rex.insanejournal.com]

Yowza, but that 'Monster Legion' page is a thing of beauty. I'm surprised that no one has really exploited the concept of combining superheroes with classic monsters - there's just something so RIGHT about the idea.
And damn, but Animated Brainy is an arrogant little snot. And the Time Trapper is always a welcome presence - we need more mysterious villains in ragged purple robes.
