Legion of Super-Heroes and Deathlok

 

A no-nonsense cyborg working with a team of clean cut super-teens?  Sounds like a recipe for fast paced action and generational drama to me.

Doctor Strange and The Legion of Super-Heroes in: "Master of Mystic Interrogation!"

 

Based on the costumes, I'd say that this adventure takes place prior to Doctor Strange's first encounter with the LSH on this blog, back in STF #3546.  As for who the traitor might be in the scene above?  I never fully trusted someone who claims to be a descendant of Brainiac...

Chewbacca and The Legion of Superheroes

 

I remember being excited to see the Muppet Show episode where Mark Hamill and characters from Star Wars appeared.  Chewbacca appeared without his ammunition strap so he looked kind of naked to me.  Still, it's one of the best Muppets episodes - the Pigs in Space sequence in this one is a masterpiece.

Legion of Super-Heroes and Captain America (Part One)

 

Gil Kane is my favorite Marvel cover artist and he has worked with many talented inkers over the years, often to great effect.  Still, I always enjoyed seeing work that he inked himself,  There seemed to be an extra bit of raw power in the images when he did so.  

This is only Part One of a Three-Part tale - so make sure you come back tomorrow for the next exciting chapter!

Legion of Super-Heroes and Eternity

 

The Marvel Universe has some truly powerful and mind blowing characters - Galactus, The Supreme Intelligence and so on.  I think one of the most amazing concepts has to be Eternity.  The leader of the abstract entities known as the Cosmic Powers of the Marvel Universe is basically the living embodiment of all that exists.  That something so great in scale could actually have conversations and interact with other characters always seemed a little far fetched and crazy - in a good way!  When comics think big, they think really big, and this is one part of the MCU that I always thought was cool, even if it didn't make a lot of sense to me.

Nightcrawler and Storm Join The Legion of Super-Heroes

 

A big part of the appeal of both the LSH and X-Men for me was the wide array of cool costumes their respective rosters were given.  Dave Cockrum was the artist responsible for many of the best outfits on both teams. Indeed,  Storm and Nightcrawlers' looks were adapted from unused Legionnaire designs of his, a bit of trivia that inspired me to make this cover.

Justice Society Vs. Alpha Flight (And More!)

Wow, hard to believe we are at STF #2800 already (cover #3310 overall) - time flies!

While the Justice League may have missed the mark in their big screen attempt, the Justice Society is ready for their chance at live action.  They are going to be featured in as supporting players and in flashback scenes on the upcoming Stargirl series, which looks fun based on the trailer.  Then there's the Black Adam movie, which also promises to feature a number of JSA members as well. It'll be interesting to see which characters make the cut for both projects.

Al Pratt and Puck would later work together. as told in STF #720...

Chameleon Boy and The Human Torch

One of the great things about The Legion of Super-Heroes was that so many of the individual members were strong enough to be solo stars in my eyes.  Some, like Karate Kid, Mon-El, and Cosmic Boy have even made that leap.  I'd like to see Chameleon Boy in some solo adventures, I love his power set.  Other choices to branch out on their own would be Dawnstar, Ultra Boy or Wildfire.

Legion of Super-Heroes and Cloak & Dagger

Brainiac 5 has been made a series regular for the upcoming season of Supergirl, and I hope that means that there's hope for a few more legionnaires to show up.  We've already seen Saturn Girl and Mon El, and I'd like to see Chameleon Boy, Phantom Girl, Wildfire, Dawnstar, Ultra Boy or Bouncing Boy appear - but really anyone will do.  Maybe if enough members are introduced and strike a chord with audiences, we can finally get a live action LSH spinoff show on the air.
