#losh reboot

[izzy-mizzie-boo]

AH—

That's- one of the arts that I like the most, I drew both in different AUs(I say AUs bc "years" would be weird, please anyone correct me q-q). The Melodys have different personalities from each other, but Threeboot and Retroboot have kinda similar vibes, but Threeboot being more sympathetic and empathetic than Retroboot.

Reboot and Cartoon have a more kind and soft personalities, but Cartoon ends up being more morbid than the Reboot one a few times.

Any questions, I'm open to answer it :>

Re-reading some reboot Legion of Superheroes and is that Shampoo from Ranma 1/2 in the background? Wonder how many more anime cameos there are since Jeff Moy is a fan of anime and manga after all.

Do you think Querl was ever annoyed thinking about how they gave Kon (who he hates) a flight ring but not Bart (who he developed a friendship with) one

I don't think so, because he didn't hate Kon despite their little tussle they had initially. Querl was quick to forgive him, ultimately, and accepted Kon into the ranks as a Legionnaire member. Querl just has a grumpy personality (when he is written at his best) so he comes off as having stronger opinions towards someone than he actually does.

Legionnaires #31

Querl's relationship to Kon is about at the same level as his relationship was to Bart in the 90s - friendly but with some ironic teasing that didn't feel mean. Their relationship also ironically both started out with the same level of frustration but grew into something more positive.

The difference is, like you said, Kon got honorary membership with a ring (he was actually given two in total, long story) and Bart was emphatically not. We don't know still if Querl was the one who voted to allow Bart membership during the diner scene, but it's extremely likely.

Legion of Super-Heroes (1989) #88

In closing I doubt Querl really had any strong feelings about either of them having rings or membership. This version of Querl doesn't really have any strong opinion about anyone being a Legionnaire period. He himself is not even really particularly attached to being one here in this moment. He was drafted in and did not even join of his own free will, but stayed on regardless when the draft was lifted.

Also, if you are going to examine the overall situations between Kon and Bart - the Legionnaires' decisions of membership were fair and reasonable. Kon was deserving of an honorary membership at the time, and Bart was not quite ready yet. Bart might not have deserved the news delivered like... that... but he needed a little more time before was ready.

We don't talk about the fact that Lori was Time Trapper enough. They really just never brought that back up huh?

#lori is so interesting to me in general #the little girl desperate to be someone desperate to be seen ends up being one of their biggest and most mysterious enemies?? #thats so interesting!! #i'm so sad that plot never really went anywhere #and i dont even remember seeing her after the outpost accident what even happened to her?? #one of many things about the reboot that sadly never got expanded on #her tag is so dry though its basically nonexistent #lori morning #time trapper #legion of super heroes #losh #losh spoilers #< for the one mutual #i know that in other reboots time trapper is someone else but i personally like this version the best #or maybe thats just my love for lori talking

I find it interesting to see how if you ask people on Tumblr who their favorite LoSH character is 90% of them is gonna say Brainy, but if you ask the same question on Twitter no one will give you the same answer

#ok that's not true there's usually a lot of ultra boy timber wolf wildfire and projectra #but still i think there's more variety compared to tumblr #it's probably because losh fans on twitter tend to skew older and usually prefer the original continuity #while on tumblr they're usually younger and focus more on the reboot and the cartoon

Look who's cooking again.

Thank you so much, you really helped me out!!

All good. I get it’s overwhelming to look at where to start, especially when reading guides will often just have lists of single issues jumping between multiple titles, particularly if the character is a more minor one.

But most comic titles are designed to be read on their own, so your best bet is…pick up a title and read it. If the story does literally disappear off to another story, the comic will tell you that (on the cover or the last page)

This isn’t actually the way I personally start (I open their DCU Guide chronology, on the personal timeline sorting, then identify a decent sized chunk of story and start there), but it’s a simplified version of it.

Bat comics don’t tend to be high-context comics where the footnotes have footnotes. There ARE DC comics like that - if you want to read Legion of Super-Heroes go ask a fan and get very specific advice about where to start as LOSH is famous for having complicated continuity and extra reboots and impenetrable storylines - and don’t attempt any of the BIG Crisis comics until you’re a lot more comfortable. Crisis on Infinite Earths, Zero Hour, Infinite Crisis, Flashpoint and their ilk tend to involve hundreds of issues of backstory, dozens of characters you’ve probably not heard of, and a plethora of very meaningful looking scenes that are impenetrable if you don’t know the context. You’ve got to be VERY comfortable with ‘just go with it’ reading.

But for Bat comics? It’s usually safe to just pick up a title and start reading. You’ll probably want to come back and read it again with more context when you’re addicted, as it will change the story for you. But people often overthink things. You’ll find it easiest to just start.

As I "promised", here is Mel's sketches!

As you may notice, she doesnt's smile... much. She normally keeps a serious demeanor and a tired gaze, since she's mostly seem in the lab working in something, if she isn't there, you can keep in mind she might be traveling through a few planets searching for specific stuff for her projects. As she always says:

"Fresh ingredients make a perfect meal."

Normally when she returns to the Legion's headquarters, she's visibly very tired, and it's pretty common find heeer... laying down on floor... Sleeping. Or even sleeping on the lab, but reminder, these just happen because she didn't reach her bedroom in time, she would never sleep on floor because she wants to, is just the tiredness level that overtakes her.

Saw on Reddit people ranking each version of the legion so I wanted to give it a go!

Original Silver Age- It's the silver age, it's the origin to all the concepts and characters but it's too charming and dumb to ever critique. Harmless fun with comic moments that read like elaborate shit posts.

70's era- Actually not a big fan of this era but I appreciate what it builds on for later, it's actually riddle with a lot of strange retcons (like Ayla being Garth and Mekt's little sister and them being twins??), very melodramatic moments for characters being dicks, hitting their girlfriends, and angst out, TYROC. Also not a big fan of the outfits designs making everyone look like eye candy and I do mean EVERYONE. You think that would be a positive but alot of the outfits tell you nothing of their characters abilities, their only purpose is to show the reader skin. I did like it for the creation of Dawnstar and Wildfire and this is the run where RJ gets a lot more focus being their financial backer. It gets way better when Paul and Giffen take over, leading into...

Bronze age Legion- This is LoSH at it's best and most Adult. The angst up teenagers have grown up and now feel like an organized functioning team. They all feel like friends with their own families and histories. Levitz proved that writing a large cast equally for a book is possible by sectioning a bunch of characters in their own little storylines until they all come together for when the real shit behind it all happens. Re-reading this era is purely comfy.

FYL- Hot take: I don't hate FYL. I will agree it has issues especially regarding it's certain retcons but I really do believe it told decent enough stories to not be the worst for me. It really gets the legionnaires to their core, albeit it has to make everyone wash outs and depressed to do so but if you look at the whole run as a character study for everyone. It's pretty good. It's so self contained you can't really bring yourself to hate it. Like it's basically what if Watchmen with LoSH.

Retroboot- This is technically still in the OG continuity and I rather get it out of the way now. It starts out pretty great with "Superman and the Legion of Superheroes" and the "Lightning Saga" being their best introductions especially for newbies, but the main book they did get... Kinda was boring as hell? I didn't think it was terrible, just that whenever it tried to introduce cool things it just drops plotlines and never explores them any further. Characters are faithful enough to the originals tho Garth wasn't ever really a hot head and Tasmia would never sleep with ethnic cleanser. Also r.i.p RJ, damn. It was going pretty fine until the new 52 was cancelled , forcing Querl to accidentally destroy the entire UP and forcing the legion to dispense "permanently". So yeah, pretty disappointing.

PZH "Reboot"- This is probably my real favorite version because it takes all the strengths I said about the Bronze age and mixes it with the imagination of the silver age. Objectively better designs to all other versions, and it's finally really incorporated having aliens members and more humans of color into the team. It's a reboot sure but it's extremely faithful to what came before, some would criticize TOO faithfully. But I don't care. It has like 100 issues so it did something right. Ends kinda poorly tho and we don't know if this version ever found their original universe yet.

Cartoon- Actually my first introduction to the team. It's sorta nothing to write home about, it's just a fun show. Though if it aired today it would get a ton of more fans given that its version of Querl is canon a super-simp. But aren't we all?

Threeboot- this might be the black sheep of all Legions. It's well written with designs that are fairly good if you're a fan of everything matrix. The premise is REALLY interesting and possibly ahead of it's time with adults being overprotective of themselves and their children to hardly allow them to be outside and interact with other people that aren't on another screen. So what went wrong? No cool villains, gets bogged down by infighting team politics, and only select members that Waid probably likes the most gets any character development. So mostly Rokk, Querl, Nura and maybe the Ranzz twins. So yeah, a strong start but it couldn't keep its momentum. It did have a soft boot under Jim Shooter, nothing to really say about it aside from Brainy having sex with a ghost. No comment.

Bendis era- This brings out the raging "fanboy" in me and I rather not feel like that anymore. What can be said that hasn't already been said? 12 issues of f-all happening.

Overall this team has been around for a long time and I hope one day to see them have another run again, preferably back to their former glory but not afraid to introduce new concepts to build upon itself.

So. This new "ultimate" DC universe that Scott Snyder will be heading. I heard that it may spawn from Zero Hour and you know what else spawned from ZH? The reboot Legion. My fav Legion. Yes, that's right; they may be coming back from wandering nowhere finally. And it fits with the 30-year anniversary of ZH too. Please Scott Snyder, please let a good writer bring them back.

Legion of Super-Heroes (1989) #88

I talked about this scene more in-depth before but I feel like pointing out again that the one vote to allow Bart into the Legion as a member very likely came from Querl who waits outside to hear word on how everyone actually voted.

Also the amount of sugar Rokk puts in his coffee gives me anxiety.

#orla reads losh #they don't know about the legion tryouts that happened in the future while they are stranded #and this is a reboot so other hero rejections never happened here

[cryptocism]

Man I wish you had read LoSH (specifically post-zero hour aka reboot aka 90's LoSH) because Thad getting to meet Jenni and Brainiac 5 would have been SO INTERESTING. Jenni because she's his cousin if you extend their relation to that through Bart and I think she'd be really interested to meet more family that she hasn't gotten to meet yet. Querl because he is actually already friends with Bart and they could bond over the "My having of an evil ancestor is constantly sabotaging my life" thing. Also I think they have the same sense of humor-

i have heard this from so many people at this point that the fact i havent read LoSH at this point may be a crime. i gotta get around to it one of these days (and probably become obsessed)

#agendercryptidlev #asks #the legion all seem so cool from what ive seen of them in other comics T-T #one dayyy

[lemonyinks]

they should reboot LOSH again but just bring back the post zero hour crew

#they had everything they had it down with losh 89 but they threw it all away for whatever the hell they have going now #and the cartoon but i like the cartoon it gets a pass #losh #legion of super heroes #still thinking about losh 2005 (derogatory) #why did they do that #that comic was a mess
