Week of 2 July 2008

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

LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #43 (8/08)
"Enemy Rising Part 4: The Leader Who Lost the Legion"
ROLL CALL: Atom Girl, Brainiac 5, Chameleon, Colossal Boy, Element Lad, Invisible Kid, Karate Kid, Light Lass, Lightning Lad, M'rissey, Phantom Girl, Saturn Girl, Shadow Lass, Star Boy, Timber Wolf, Triplicate Girl, Ultra Boy

By the end of this issue, the Legion's charter is revoked and warrants are issued for the arrest of all Legionnaires. Chased by the police, some Legionnaires hide in the sewers. And the question at the top of everyone's mind is: So where's Universo, already?

BITS OF LEGIONNAIRE BUSINESS: Four silhouettes in a glowing bubble appear to take Karate Kid and Triplicate Girl away on a mysterious mission. This might have something to do with Cosmic Boy and his new team from the future. However, it's Val and Luornu, the same Legionnaires who appeared (and died) in COUNTDOWN. So maybe all this has something to do with Infinite Crisis.

Phantom Girl has a collection of thousand-year-old comics. Or is she tending Cosmic Boy's collection? Either way, you'd think she would read next month's LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES to see how the story comes out. Maybe she's missing that issue?

I wish everybody would stop pickin' on Lyle.
