Gerry Conway bashing[edit]

In regards to this comment: "Ironically, this fell in the middle of what is widely considered to be a low point in the Legion's history. The Conway stories were not very well-received, and often seemed to lack ambition." This is an unsupportable, clearly subjective claim (can it be demonstrated that the stories were widely disliked, and what are the criteria for possessing "ambition" in regards to a 1980 mainstream super-team comic?). Generally speaking, comments like that are only appropriate if the alleged fan discontentment actually amounted to something (the Spider-Man Clone saga, for instance)

List of Legion of Super-Heroes members[edit]

Rather than many small quasi-stubs, could it not make sense to expand List of Legion of Super-Heroes members into a table? This would also make it simpler to track where and where not there are changes between the original and rebooted versions. unkamunka 02:15 15 Dec 2003 (UTC).


Is there any place in the article for a outline of the in-comic history of the Legion? --khaosworks 03:35, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Sure! I'd suggest renaming the History header to Publication history, and adding a new section entitled Team history or Fictional biography, perhaps with sub-sections for the pre-reboot and post-reboot teams. This will mirror the structure I've been using for some other DC articles, such as The Flash, Green Lantern and Hawkman. -mhr 03:42, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Superman: The Man Of Steel Volume 4[edit]

I added this to the trade paperback section recently, since it includes The Death Of Superboy. That being the story that explains Clark Kent's/Superboy's existance in LOSH despite being out of existance Post Crisis.

Pic choices[edit]

Wow. This article is heavily biased with images of recent incarnations. Two of the post-ZH teens, two from the current version, one post-Infinite Crisis of the classic version and one cartoon version. Not a single image of the original team that's actually from that era. The Legion didn't suddenly spring into being in 1994, ya know.

Five Years Later[edit]

DC has released a second volume of the 5 Years Later era of LSH comics. At this point, the entire 5YL era been reprinted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.219.24.2 (talk) 15:48, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Were WP:PRODDED by Piotrus. I have WP:DEPRODDED to allow the fate of these articles to be discussed here. ~Kvng (talk) 21:29, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Fate: merge or redirect (with some merge)? Or rescue, if someone can show they meet WP:GNG? Both seem very unlikely to survive an AfD. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:03, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For a merge, WP:GNG does not apply to article content. ~Kvng (talk) 14:44, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
True, but most content here is unreferenced and what refs are here are primary. I don't think anything from either article is salvageable outside a redirect, but if anyone wants to try to merge stuff, I have no objection to seeing such an attempt.
