Legion of Super-heroes #0

Writers: Mark Waid and Tom McCraw

Pencils: Stuart Immonen

Inks: Ron Boyd


The Crisis ruined it all for the Legion. Writers after writer tried to fix the problem, but only made things worse. (Things like pocket universes and whatever 5 Years Later was.) In the end, it was decided that there was no fixing the problem and the series got a total reboot. I am sure DC learned their lesson after that...


Upon reaching their destination, Imra, the telepath, senses that something is amiss.

R.J. Brande decides to repay the teens for saving him by having them form a superhero team. A legion of superheroes, if you will.

This was needed as the continuity had become such a massive mess. And a rare bit where a clean reboot really worked for a while, old fans could enjoy it while newbies got in and it took off.

Of course, this being DC, it got messy again later on but those first couple of years were top tier for DC at the time and it (along with Starman) were the best things to come out of Zero Hour.
