Regular guests include Tom Peyer, Tom McCraw, Roger Stern, Mark Waid, Jeff Moy, Ron Boyd, KC Carlson and Mike McAvennie. DISCLAIMER - Information presented herein is not guaranteed to be reliable.

SPECIAL THANKS - To Lev Kalman and Ed Douglas for providing copies of the chat log from which this report was generated. ANNOUNCEMENT - You may have noticed that I've fallen somewhat behind in these reports. At this time, I find it unlikely that I will prepare reports for the two weeks that I've skipped. You are welcome to refer to this as the "Two Week Gap." ============================== The new assistant editor on the Legion books is Rueben Diaz. KC Carlson was on the Sci-Fi Channel's Anti-Gravity room this weekend. (Weekend of March 30, 1996.) (Ed. - I missed it. Does anyone know whether it will be rerun during the week?) The LSH Annual will be illustrated by Mike Collins and Mark Farmer. The Legionnaires Annual hasn't been assigned yet. KC is trying to get Alan Davis to do something for him. KC is waiting for the Green Lantern people to come up with an idea for an LSH/GL crossover. KC is looking forward to working with Colleen Doran again on an LSH story. The story won't be scheduled until it's finished, and will most likely run in one of the regular books. The story is about Jan Arrah, and won't feature Schvaughn. Jan Arrah will get a codename soon, provided he sticks around. Tom suggested "Alchemental" as a compromise between Alchemist and Element Lad. KC is pushing for more Legion Archives, and he noted that the Flash Archives had finally been put on the schedule. There are no plans for any of the members of the Legion of Substitute Heroes at this time, but Tom would like to see them again. Shadow Lass and Dream Girl are being considered for the Legion books. Tom doesn't think that Valor can travel faster than light, and pointed out that such power levels always caused problems in the past. KC was openly soliciting opinions on whether Shrinking Violet should change her uniform. KC has named his toes after Legion characters. (Ed. - Certainly more information than I needed!<g>) KC is on the last page of LSH #80. The rest of the creators slipped him into the scene. Not all of the heroes in LSH #80 will be sticking around after the story is over. Tom wouldn't say if Gates stays or goes, but acknowledged that he was a very popular character. Star Boy has some other problems before he meets Dream Girl. Nura's reported upcoming appearance was merely rumor. The next villain is the return of someone that we've already seen in the postboot. When asked about the phantom inside Ultra Boy, Tom replied "What Phantom?"
