Torrent description

The Legion of Super-Heroes is a DC Comics superhero team created by writer Otto Binder and artist Al Plastino.

The original Legion first appeared in Adventure Comics #247 [April 1958] and was the first super-team of the

Silver Age of Comic Books.

The Legion's stories are set primarily in the 30th and 31st centuries (1000 years from the present), but have

recurring connections via time travel with the present. In addition to superhero elements, the stories contain

elements of science fiction and fantasy.

The Legion is known for its sizable roster, which includes several dozen major and minor characters. A common

visual associated with the group is a tidal wave of colorful heroes utilizing the group's "flight rings".

Initially, the team was closely associated with the original Superboy and was first portrayed as a group of time

travelers who frequently visited (or were visited by) the young hero destined to become Superman.

Volume five was written by Mark Waid, who previously rebooted the title following the events of Zero Hour, and

penciled by Barry Kitson. This new series - the fifth series entitled Legion of Super-Heroes - recreated the

team from the ground up and uses the Boy/Lad/Girl/Lass/Kid names from which the end of the "Preboot" era and the

prior reboot had moved away from using. The current continuity is sometimes referred to as the "Threeboot"

continuity by fans as it is the third incarnation of the Legion that has been published since 1958.

The future universe of this Legion is an emotionally and mentally repressive society which involves human

sexuality and contact being kept at arms' length as well as Orwellian surveillance of minors. The Legion's main

goal is social reform as well as protecting people and inspiring them with the legends of superheroes of old,

even though the team isn't appreciated by various government authorities.

The Legion is worshiped by thousands of "Legionnaires"; young people on various different worlds who worship the

group in a cult-like manner. Some of the Legionnaires keep a constant vigil outside Legion headquarters.
