Tom McCraw (co-plotter/colorist) and Ron Boyd (LSH Inker) were the guests on America Online's Legion of Super-Heroes Chat on Tuesday, October 3, 1995. LSH Chat is held every Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. ET in the DC Online chat area of AOL. Previous guests have included Mark Waid, Tom Peyer, Tom McCraw, Roger Stern, Jeff Moy, Ron Boyd, KC Carlson and Mike McAvennie. DISCLAIMER - Because of the nature of the chats, it is rarely possible to ask clarifying questions. Information presented herein is for entertainment and discussion purposes only. It should not be relied upon. SPECIAL THANKS - To Andrew Woodard (and his sister) and Lev Kalman for supplying copies of the chat log from which this report was generated. ============================== The LSH Archives are still on hold. (And be sure to drop a line to either "dcconl...@aol.com" or "dcodir...@aol.com" if you'd like to see Volume 6 of the Archives--Fatal Five, Death of Ferro Lad, Adult LSH, and (possibly) Legion in Chains.) They're trying to get a postboot poster done. The main goal for the Legion is fun. There will be at least two Showcase '96 stories next year. There are no plans for the Subs, but Tom is always pushing for them. He admits that there were times that he liked the Subs more than the regular Legion. Ferro (Lad) is still on hold for now. Jan (Element Lad) Arrah isn't a member right now because President Chu won't allow it. Dirk (Sun Boy/Inferno) Morgna is a Lite Brite for now. Andromeda just wants to be left alone for now. Superboy may appear again sometime, but not too soon. No plans to introduce a Green Lantern soon. Rond will not be a Green Lantern when we're introduced to him. Tom would like to see a Supergirl/Matrix crossover. Almost everything else is quasi-SPOILER stuff SPOILERS? Tom jokes that Lyle did save the day in Legionnaires #31, we just didn't see him. He noted that the fans are claiming that Lyle invisibly redirected the Philosopher's Stone to Triad Orange, but the creators didn't plan it that way. Tom claims that no one will be teasing Chuck Taine--he's too "SMART" for that now. Brainiac 5 will be needing his force field belt real soon. We'll have to see who's sending Ayla presents before the Ayla/Vi storyline can be pursued. Tom responded that Star Boy "will have his own powers" when asked whether Star Boy would have Daxamite powers. Tom notes that Thom "might" have super-strength. Tom predicts that what is done with Zoe will be a big surprise. She will meet someone very important to preboot history in LSH #76. That meeting will be the character's first postboot appearance. The character did appear in one of the Great Darkness issues. Ron notes that she also meets someone important to Tex Avery. Zoe will have long, flowing red hair. Tom teases/hints that part of the change to Zoe may involve a gender switch. (ED - I'm about this last item, and decided not to report it in prior weeks. However, at this point the comments have been made with enough frequency and consistency that they deserve mention here.) Tom didn't like the profem story. Apparition will stay dead for now--unless things change. Hockey Girl--the mysterious female that appears on the covers of LSH #75 and L* #31--is a new character. Valor will be given something to do. A Fatal Five story is in the works.
