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...

The AI "Dominion" concept - as done by DC
Mar. 16th, 2024 02:00 pmshakaloolooIn Marvel's X-Men, a "Dominion" is a network of greater machine intellects that has assumed god-like power. Why not compare the Marvel concept of an evolved machine mind becoming a deity to the Distinguished Competition's approach, a couple of decades ago in Legion (of superheroes, but we're too cool for that part, right?).
For a little context, it is the 31st century, and this is the reboot Legion (or the Legion of Reality-247 if you want to get Johnsian about it). Our heroes have recently thwarted an attempt to artificially evolve humanity by Ra's al Ghul (or a sentient pool of blood that thought it was Ra's - I'm not sure that ever got fully explained).
In the wake of this conflict, an army of alien robots has invaded Earth, led by a forgotten AI supervillain. Its goal is not conquest (that would be for when DnA re-mix elements of their Legion run a few years later for Annihilation: Conquest) but to usurp the evolutionary process and ascend to deity-dom!

icon_ukOther people will remember Keith Giffen for his work on the "Bwha-ha-ha!" incarnation of the Justice League, or maybe Ambush Bug or... well, any one of dozens of others titles he worked on or created.
But back in the day he made his mark with the Legion of Superheroes
( And what a mark it was! )

q99Preparing for the new Legion boot (Fiveboot?), I was reading through some Reboot Legion comics, Legionnaires #65 to be specific, and I came across the most important page in Legion of Superheroes history!

NS: Brian Bendis interview
Oct. 22nd, 2019 09:54 pmlordultimusBrian Bendis did an interview on the Word Balloon podcast on upcoming things on his run, including the Legion and the change released in solicits on Superman's secret identity. I thought I'd post the big points here for discussion.

lordultimusThe Hollywood Reporter has officially uploaded the last few pages of the upcoming Superman #14.
Bendis: "“This is a very big moment in the DC universe,” Bendis told Heat Vision about the scene below. “Not only is the the first time that anyone in the DCU meets this new Legion of Super-Heroes, readers also get their first look at this exciting new blend of races, species and cultures that make up this galaxy-spanning team of superheroes from the 31st Century.”
