How is this so much better than Bendis' Legion?

Like, it actually has queer Legionnaires!

Okay but I actually want that Starjammers comic though.

It's interesting to note that this comic apparently came out in 1992 and in the "present" of Heroes Reborn, Chandilar, the Shi'ar homeworld, is now a Brood hiveworld and Rocket and Groot aren't part of the Guardians (if they exist) and Groot turned into a giant gun.

Rocket is essentially the Lobo analogue in this world

Wow, between fake previous issues and old-school letter page, I'm getting serious Amalgam vibes...

And dammit, I love it.

Oh gosh, is that Scott with control of his eye beams and Alex, both working with their Dad on the Starjammers?

Awwww! :D

[zachbeacon]

I enjoy the running AU gag where Scott will only be truly happy if he becomes a space pirate.

I would love to pitch an MCU Starjammers movie or series where Lilandra has to team up with the 'jammers to depose the Mad Majestor D'Ken.

[scorntx]

Lot of material for a writer to pick and chose from.
Lilandra's had more than a few team-ups with the Jammers.
Far more than you'd think a monarch would need to have, really.
Most monarchs tend to go their whole reign without having to work with pirates once...

[donnblake]

I mean, plenty of monarchs work with pirates, they just tend to rebrand them slightly as 'privateers,' or 'admirals,' or 'cybersecurity experts.'

Repeatedly having to take refuge with them, though, is probably a sign that something rotten in the state of Shi'ar is.

[scorntx]

The constant civil wars and coups, and the alarming amount of times they're saved only by foreign intervention, probably should've been a tip-off.
Shi'ar politics is like a really deadly game of musical chairs.

And when you play the game of musical chairs, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.
