Mutual attraction is rekindled when their paths cross again, but the two find their old dynamics have been flipped on their head.

More Legion redesigns feat. the Espionage Squad

Thought process for my redesigns under the read more:

So for Lyle I didn't want to change too much because I like his Reboot costume the best, though I think it's a bit bland. A bland design works well for him but he's my fave so I wanted him to have a better costume lol. I decided to go all in on the spy look, it's not like it's a secret anyway so he might as well look the part even more than he already does.

Tinya I wanted to make her look like a ghost, so it's basically a mix between her cartoon design and her Young Justice design. I like how in YJ she's wearing a hoodie, it feels like what a teenage superhero would wear, so I incorporated it into the cape.

Vi is mostly a mix between Retroboot and the cartoon, but I gave her shorts and combat boots as a bit of a callback to 5YL Vi because I love her. Also I wanted her to be visibly shorter than everyone else but I probably overdid it. She's really tiny.

Now you might be wondering, what the hell is going on with Cham's costume? Yeah, me too. He's the one I had the hardest time designing. I don't particularly like most of his costumes, I think a lot of them are pretty generic so I wanted to try something different but I don't think I accomplished what I wanted to do. I thought a really asymmetrical costume would fit a shapeshifter pretty well, and I also wanted to give it a water-like look to it since water doesn't have a shape. Something like Inque from Batman Beyond. But I didn't know how to do make it look good and also make him look like he belonged to the same team as everyone else so it's a bit meh.

And for Luornu I mainly took from the cartoon, now with more triangles. I also decided to stick to the Reboot's color scheme of purple and orange because her powers are more effective if she can trick people into thinking she hasn't split, and that's not doable if each duplicate is a different color. Plus Luornu Neutral is the balance between Orange and Purple and I like the idea of visually representing that by making her both orange and purple.

May to July 1986. I think a lot of people have seen the above panels from LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES (1984) #22, which are really the first indication of the attraction between Lightning Lass and Shrinking Violet, but consider also this scene from the following issue:

It certainly looks here like they're going to hook up in the Legion cruiser, and probably not for the first time.

In the issue after that, Lightning Lass finally breaks off her longstanding relationship with Timber Wolf (Brin Londo), a hunky sad boy who spends much of this series gradually turning into a werewolf:

This was indeed what it looked like, although it wasn't until early in the subsequent Legion series that Ayla and Vi were unequivocally together. Several of the later reboots erase their relationship completely, although they were once against together in the last Paul Levitz/Keith Giffen series (the reboot prior to the recent Bendis one).

DC Pride Spoilers and HOLY SHIT MOM LOOK WHAT I DID!!!!

I can finally tell EVERYONE about this, my God. I was going stir crazy!

Months ago, Devin Grayson emailed me and asked for my consultation on her Jon Kent story for this year’s Pride anthology. Devin read my Icemaiden article on Comicosity where I mentioned how a lot of DC’s older queer characters weren’t in the first Pride book.

I discussed this with Devin and convinced her to use the Legion of Super-Heroes, as well as Dorothy Spinner and Coagula from the Doom Patrol

Kate and Dorothy were infamously killed off in John Arcudi’s Doom Patrol run 20 years ago. I got sick of waiting for someone to finally bring them back and used this opportunity with Devin to have them included. I specified Dorothy needed to be with Kate, after Dorothy was used as a plot device to kill Kate despite their sisterly bond.

You can see Dorothy’s holding the Danny the Brick in her arms.

And thank you to Jadzia Axelrod for also using Kate in her Alysia Yeoh story

Dawnstar being bisexual was implied in Brad Meltzer’s Justice League of America, but nothing was done about since.

Brainiac 5 being demisexual came about via discussion with querldoxs on twitter. I also talked with Robyn Singer about the sexuality of the Legionnaires to make sure I got it right.

The instagram comments are based on suggestions I made as well.

As you can see, Shrinking Violet and Element Lad are both in the story too. I pushed for using Invisible Kid, Chemical King, Lightning Lass, and also Shvaughn Erin but they didn’t make the cut. Vi would’ve been identified as a lesbian while Jan was pansexual.

You have no idea what it feels like for me to be able say I helped bring back Dorothy and Kate after 20 years, and to say I got the Legionnaires acknowledged and identified as queer on-panel after 40 years of subtext and innuendo.

Thank you to Devin Grayson, Nick Robles, editor Arianna Turturro, Jadzia Axelrod, Robyn and querldoxs for this.
