As with everything I read and write, I like to know where my characters come from.
To coincide tonight with the release of Legion of Super-Heroes #0, I will post a timeline of events that lead to the formation of the Legion. From the last great war on Earth in the late 2800's to Vidar's rampage on the streets of Metropolis in 2992 to the formation of the Legion in the year 3005.
I'm sure I'll add to it as time goes on... (that's writer speak for " As I make S#!t up") but know that it is not necessary to read this prior to Legion. It's mainly so I can keep dates & events straight in my ever-aging noggin'!
#0 is the DC2 origin of the Legion and is a story of hope. The hope of a young boy in a war torn world to make life better for his family. The hope of another young boy to leave his troubled life behind. The hope of a young girl that wants nothing more than to get out from under the shadow of her over-bearing mother! And the old man that inadvertantly brings them together.
I hope you all enjoy the stories as they go, I've got quite a romp planned out for our 31st century friends when issue #1 debuts in June! Let's just say, the year 3007 is not going to be an easy one for the Legion...
