LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES IN THE 31st CENTURY #19 (12/08)
"Booster"
ROLL CALL: Bouncing Boy, Brainiac 5, Chameleon Boy, Colossal Boy (cameo), Dawnstar, Karate Kid, Lightning Lad, Lightning Lass (cameo), Matter-Eater Lad (cameo), Phantom Girl (cameo), Shrinking Violet (cameo), Sun Boy (cameo), Superman, Superman X (cameo), Triplicate Girl, Ultra Boy (cameo)


BITS OF LEGIONNAIRE BUSINESS:In regular DC continuity, Booster Gold is from the 25th century; here, he is from the 31st.

As Booster is traveling back through time, we see various glimpses of Legion history. From left to right, they seem to be: (1) Mekt, Garth, and Ayla on Korbal; (2) The first meeting of Garth and Rokk; (3) Cosmic Boy, Lightning Lad, and Saturn Girl in earlier versions of their costumes, with the Legion clubhouse in the background (probably soon after the founding of the team); (4) First meeting of Clark Kent and the Legion; (5) Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad fighting the Emerald Empress; (6) The team from season 2, including Kell-El, probably fighting Imperiex.
