DISCLAIMER - All of this is subject to change, misinterpretation, or reader 
error.  Wagering on the material herein is foolhardy.

Jeff Moy is currently working on the L* annual and L* #29.  There are 3 pages 
remaining before he finishes the L* annual.  Waid is currently about halfway 
through scripting the L* annual.

Madame President's name is Ms. Chu.  They're still discussing the first name.

The creators didn't know if we would be seeing J'onn Jonzz in the 30th 
Century again.

KC was begged to let Curt Swan do something for the Legion. KC did talk
to John Byrne about a project.  KC didn't know if Byrne would do a LSH thing,
but Byrne did want to work with Swan.  At this point, they're just talking--no
plans.  Waid would give up his remaining sleep to work with Swan.

Curt is currently doing special pieces for friends.  He'd like to do the 
Legion and urged us to let KC know.

Curt was very professional and thanked us all for the well wishes, remarking 
that it was kind that we remembered his LSH work.

Curt likes the new Superboy . . . but it's not HIS SUPERBOY.

There are no plans to bring Timberwolf back yet.

Mike Collins and Mark Farmer did interior art on L* # 25.  Moy did the 
interior art for L* #26.

Brainy and Andromeda's interest in each other will be explored soon.

VR may be affecting Imra.

Reep's father dies in L* #25.

Brande vs. the United Planets over the Legion is coming soon.

The plot with Mekt Ranzz is finished.  It will see print shortly after the L* 
annual.

Kenny Braverman won't be joining the Legion Reserve even if he doesn't tell 
anyone Superman's secret identity.

They're discussing doing a Legion reader election.  It may come next year.

Reep is still learning Interlac.

Although there are no plans to bring her back, KC and Mike Carlin were 
discussing Insect Queen recently.

KC and Tom Peyer have discussed plans for bringing back Chuck Taine.  Nothing 
is finalized yet.

According to Mark Waid, Impulse is going to have his hands full with XS soon. 
 The Impulse/XS connection will be explained in LSH annual.

Lyle is "golden" as long as Peyer and Waid have their way.  We'll be sorry we 
picked on Lyle when we find out all of his secrets.  (EDITORIAL - If we need 
to know his secrets to like the character, they should be revealing them now.)

Lyle did not make the ship invisible in LSH #68.

Jan Arrah will appear in the books.

Dev Em won't be showing up soon because he's too confusing.  They're looking 
to bring back the "regulars" first.

Glorith, Mordru & the Time Trapper are in editorial-imposed limbo due to 
overuse last year.  They will reappear.  KC thinks Glorith has more potential 
than has been used so far.  The Lori/Glorith thing in Valor was KC's idea.

Ayla is getting a secret admirer.  It isn't Brin Londo or me.

KC thinks that overexpanding the Legion by adding new titles right now would 
wreck it.  They are trying to get some mini-series underway.

The Superboy crossover starts in Superboy #17.  LSH #74 will be the firs
t Legion issue of the crossover.  (EDITORAL - This doesn't work out 
numerically.  Sboy #17 is on sale in two months, as opposed to six months for 
LSH #74.  My best guess is we're going to start seeing hints in Sboy #17.  
It's only my guess.)

Laurel's xenophobia may increase after LSH #70 when she's out of the 
transuit.

Gim has learned to get over his fear of Durlans.

DC editors are cryptic in these AOL chats because it's in the job description.

KC said (joked?) that eventually this LSH will have more members than the 
last one.  He was not concerned about 30th century tax laws.

They haven't completely figured out Valor's definitive history yet.  He'll be 
explained as to what of his old history still remains in the Superboy 
crossover.

Tom Peyer has come up with an interesting use for the VR room, but the other 
creators weren't talking.

One of the 3 members that will be asked to leave "should find the revolving 
door."

Finally, in a discussion about the Dream Team of Legion creators, Mark 
threatened to write and all others were advised to get out of his way.
