Legion of Super-Heroes
Previews for Legion of Superheroes # 8 indicate that the book will continue its exploration of Legionnaires ' backdrop and play the squad into a civil war between two of the squad members ' dwelling house planets . Ultra Boy and Chameleon Boy are in the spot for this issue , as their two homeworlds , Rimbor and Durla , are slated to labor a cuneus into the thirty-first 100 super team . The trailer also mentions that Superboy will discover something call New Krypton …
In the latest issue , Jon Kent in conclusion get his orientation platform , but was interrupted when the Madam President of the United Planets stormed into Legion headquarters and okay the squad for alter the time stream ( picking up Superboy before proceeds one ) . This , right after someone slip Aquaman ’s trident from Legion HQ . Up to then , reviewer have been slowly getting used to the overwhelming onslaught of character reference , and sticking close to Superboy as their only keystone through a world that ’s battling an other worldly force of Horraz demons , and the ( ever - timeless ) warmonger - who - happens - to - be - related - to - a - team - member . Damian Wayne was in there too for some ground .
Over the next couple of issues , it sounds like the team will remain to unroll , precede even more new reference . There are also mentions of the Legion ’s conflict to fit in with 31st century politics . It ’s still not clear what Superboy is presuppose to bestow to this team exactly , it looks like this interpretation of the Legion has a lot to acquire about how to be a high functioning super team like those from our " old age of hero " .
So far in the Legion reboot , the character development has been relatively advertizing - hoc and piecemeal , drive more by plot of ground devices than story arcs . But as long as the twist are clever , there ’s small other way to introduce us to an United States Army of character most readers know little about . One thing this rubric has going for it is the right level of aspiration ; there ’s already a high degree of world construction at work establish some deepness to this thirty-first one C universe . Hopefully by topic # 8 , there will be suspense enough for a state of war between two Legionnaires .
