Week of 23 July 2008

(SPOILER ALERT: This post contains spoilers. Don't read it before you've read the comic.)

LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #44 (9/08)
"Enemy Rising Part 5: Operational Calculus"
ROLL CALL: Atom Girl, Brainiac 5, Chameleon, Colossal Boy, Element Lad, Invisible Kid, Light Lass, Lightning Lad, M'Rissey, Phantom Girl, Saturn Girl, Shadow Lass, Star Boy, Timber Wolf, Ultra Boy

Invisible Kid saves the team on Velmar V, the team on Rimbor struggles to save themselves, and M'Rissey saves everybody with his powers of super-organization. Meanwhile, a rogue planet appears in the Solar System, and suddenly the government needs the Legion.

BITS OF LEGIONNAIRE BUSINESS: The Rimbor team is in the city Ta Rshish and Ultra Boy swears "Holy Ni Neveh." Is everything on Rimbor named for oddly-syllabified cities of the ancient world? (Tarshish and Nineveh.)

Lyle and M'Rissey are looking particularly cute. These artists do cute little turned-up noses really well.

Ultra Boy has a secret admirer. I'll bet we haven't seen the last of her.
