Legionnaires #1

In the aftermath of Earth’s destruction in the 30th century, the shaken and weary survivors struggle to start a brave new world within the domed cities of New Earth. With the Legion of Super-Heroes having departed for deep space, another group offers the citizens of New Earth a symbol of hope in this turbulent time. From the ruins of Metropolis, a certain clubhouse is salvaged; new outfits are donned; new code-names are chosen; new members are admitted; old traditions return…and the Legionnaires are born. LEGIONNAIRES marks a bold beginning for some of the best-loved heroes in comics history, successfully recapturing the youthful exuberance of the original Legion, combined with a modern style that will appeal to longtime Legion fans and to a whole new generation of readers. Includes Part 1 of “A Guide to the 30th Century,” a text feature with background and biographical information on the Legionnaires, with character design sketches by Chris Sprouse and Karl Story. Written by Tom and Mary Bierbaum, with art and cover by Chris Sprouse and Karl Story.
