DISCLAIMER - This disclaimer would have been thorough, but I got lazy. All
of this stuff may be false.
SPOILERS - Yeah, there are spoilers in there somewhere. They're towards the
end, I think.
SUBSCRIPTIONS - Against all logic, I'm taking subscription requests for
these chat reports. Drop me a note at troy...@indirect.com if you can't
find them on LSH-L, rec.arts.comics.dc.lsh, rec.arts.comics.info, or CompuServe.
SPECIAL THANKS - To Andrew Woodard who provided me with a copy of the chat
log and discovered just how lame Projectra's reasons for becoming Sensor
Girl really were.
======================================
Roger Stern has joined the Legion creative team to help keep the creators
going. His first issue is Legionnaires #35.
Despite KC's pleas, Alan Davis won't do any LSH interiors--just covers.
Mark teased that we should wait until we see how XS plays into the "Dead
Heat" storyline currently running in "Flash" and "Impulse". He reports that
"Impulse" penciller Humberto Ramos loved XS and wept when they gave her back
to the LSH.
Johanna's question is answered: The team has no plans for Infectious Lass.
Tom still thinks of her as one of the Subs.
Don't hold your breath for Darkseid to appear in the LSH books any time soon.
The H-Dial will appear in a non-LSH DC Comic in January. But KC wouldn't
specify which one.
DC does not have any plans to license the LSH to Image. Or, as KC put it,
"No No No. Dont' go down that road."
Tom likes the names "Sun Boy" and "Element Lad".
Garth is going to have to get a new arm before they can use him again. It
was suggested that with the new arm, he could be called Lightning Rod.
Discussion deteriorated from there.
Tom observed that Garth is resting right now. He can't face the fact that
his sister is a Legionnaire while he isn't.
Andromeda is probably working on a good tan right now.
Tom noted that 30th century technology was only to support the book. The
characters are more important.
KC wondered why everyone thought Lori was Glorith. When the "Lori" from
D.O.A. in "Valor" was pointed out, KC asked if we thought they'd do that
same riff again.
Tom thinks that Ferro could be a fun character to use.
Tinya could be brought back as Charcoal Girl.
Tom pointed out that Winema is a control freak when asked why Ambassador
Wazzo didn't want Apparition to join the Legion. She didn't like Tinya
doing things on her own. She also was afraid that maybe Tinya had too much
of her father in her.
Tom misses Apparition. He painted a BTAS Poison Ivy action figure to make
an Apparition. The figure is not for sale. He'll be converting a large
Human Torch into Leviathan next.
Tom pointed out that they already had a Daxamite when a mega-powered Star
Boy was suggested.
KC pointed out that "The Character Formerly Known As Starfinger" is
currently making an appearance, and nohwere in the issue is his name
mentioned. We'll find out who [Insert Character Name Here] is in L* #34.
When the creators discovered that a preview copy of Legionnaires #35 had
been available at Mid-Ohio con, they quickly hushed discussion of Tenzil's
new powers. Tom promised that Tenzil's new power fit right in with his
abilities.
Tom requested the cover art for L* #35 from Jeff and Cory. The cover does
not have any Legionnaires, and it isn't a Work Force cover.
There's a big change in store for Kinetix in L* #34. Tom promised that Jeff
had done great things with her look.
