The Teen of Steel returns! THE LEGION #25: "Foundations"
Hot off the popular "Dream Crime" storyline, the Legion is set to embark on another monumental mission: "Foundations," a 6-part adventure that celebrates the Legion's 45th anniversary by introducing the team's newest member: Superboy!
Writers Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning and acclaimed new regular artists Chris Batista & Chip Wallace are joined by legendary LEGION artist Dave Cockrum (Uncanny X-Men), Paul Rivoche (DR. FATE covers), newcomer Eric Wight, and regular LEGION cover artists Tony Harris (STARMAN) and Tom Feister for THE LEGION #25, the extra-sized first installment of a story that promises to profoundly effect the Legion for years to come. And to add to the excitement, the first three parts of "Foundations" will ship fortnightly!
As "Foundations" begins, the Legion gains a new member…one who looks a lot like a certain member of the Teen Titans: Superboy! But is it the Superboy from the 21st century - or someone entirely new? The mystery of his identity begins here! And by the last page of THE LEGION #25, a dead hero returns, a young man finds his destiny, and an apocalyptic darkness prophesied in "Dream Crime" rears its hellish head!
This project is supported with house ads.
THE LEGION is a monthly ongoing series edited by Stephen Wacker. The 48-page issue #25 arrives in comic-book stores October 29 with a cover price of $3.95 U.S.
