Definatly, I was rather miffed when they first killed off Fero Lad, Then the Invisible kid!
I haven't heard anything on Matter Eater Lad, is he still insane?

LONG LIVE THE LEGION!

I got confused about the whole superboy being a member of the Legion thing after Byrne redid Supes and there was no superboy. I read later that an alternate world had been created by one of the legions enemies and thus the alternate superboy was the member all along. I'm going to have to get some more recent legion books to catch up as far as  Matter Eater Lad, Invisible Kid, and so forth. I always had a hard time keeping them straight. Heck it took me forever to get the X-men's names down.

it was a little confusing for me at first also.
The older stories were pretty good though. Bouncing Boy was always a hoot!

I like all the older legion stories. Everything was simple, and the art work was amazing for the era.

The best part in the old Adventure comics stories is when the legion of substitute heroes, or the legion of super pets had a go around..........boy I miss them days!

The legion of super heroes are DC Comics band of future heroes. Back before the crisis on infinite earths superboy and supergirl traveled into the future to become members.

Here's a Alex Ross picture of them

WHO are they??????

The Legion of Super Heroes are DC heroes from the future, 30th century I believe. Superboy used to travel into the future to team up with them back in the early days of comic books.

How cum trfrady is the only one who answers my questions?

I'll give it a go, Super-stupid.  The orginal Legion of Superheroes are teen-agers from the 30th century super heros and heroins who were inspired by the exploits of Superman, who, by their century was considered to be the greatest super hero of all time and space and who had his own museum dedicated to him in 30th century Metropolis.

They formed a formal organization to fight crime, had official head quarters where they met, and quickly became Earth's, (and most other peace loving planets), main line of defense against the bad guys.

Early in their careers, they decided to travel back in time and invite Superboy to join their ranks.  After that, they also invited Supergirly to join.

To become a member, you had to apply, have a power or powers which they deemed worthy of the LSH, and be voted in.

Later still, those members who had been rejected formed their own Legion and there was even a Legion of Super pets that were featured from time to time.

That's the skinny.  Hope this helps.
