Issue background colours

These relate to issue entries, e.g.:

Legionnaires77.jpg Legionnaires #77 (published September 8, 1999; cover date November 1999)
  • Endless Summer
    • W: Roger Stern, Tom McCraw; P: Jeff Moy; I: W.C. Carani; C: Tom McCraw; L: Pat Brosseau; E: Mike McAvennie, Frank Berrios (Assistant Editor); "Adult Legionnaire" [Script Assistant]: Carmela Merlo
Cover by Alan Davis (pencils), Mark Farmer (inks), Richard and Tanya Horie (colours), John Roshell (logo design) Superboy's Legion #1 (published February 21, 2001, cover date 2001)
  • (untitled)
    • W: Mark Farmer; P: Alan Davis; I: Mark Farmer; C: Richard and Tanya Horie; L: Pat Prentice; E: Mike McAvennie
  • Notes: Part 1 of an Elseworlds story in which Superboy is R.J. Brande's son and one of the original three founders of the Legion

White, as in the Legionnaires #77 example, denotes a "normal" issue - i.e., an issue of a Legion title, or a significant guest appearance, which follows the era denoted by the year/etc header.

Other background colours, such as the grey behind Superboy's Legion #1, derive from the heading colours above:

Preboot (Pre-Crisis) Preboot (Post-Crisis) Preboot (5YL) Preboot (Retro) Preboot (Post-Flashpoint) Reboot (Post-ZH) Reboot (Earth-247) Threeboot (Earth-Prime) Elseworlds Cartoon (DCAU) Cartoon (LSH)
