Legionnaires #1 annotations: The Future Begins Here!

Annotations for Legionnaires #1


Notes:
  • Cover: amazing cover by Sprouse! I love what he does with the artwork. There was a promo poster DC gave out to comic shops with this artwork, with some of the characters shifted to make room for the captions (Inferno, Matter-Eater Lad, Dragonmage, Ferro, and Andromeda).
  • Per the 2995 Sourcebook, the final “present day” entry in the book is June 13, which covers Legionnaires #1. The publication date for the Sourcebook was 12/1/92, in between LSH 39-40 (and for context, that was the same day as Timber Wolf #3, and the same month as L.E.G.I.O.N. ’93 #48 and Valor #4).
  • Page 1: at the bottom right corner is a small box reading “For Carl”, that’s Tom’s brother who had recently passed away
  • Page 2: recall at the end of LSH v4 #41, the Melbourne dome and the Djakarta dome had just collided, we pick up the action shortly thereafter
  • Page 3: I own the prelims for the original art to this page
  • Page 5 panel 5: The Hand street gang is new
  • Page 12: this version of Apparition is my all-time favorite costume of hers. Sprouse really did a great job of reinventing the costumes
  • Page 14 panel 1: Invisible Kid was the leader in the LSH v4 series, I hope they at least discussed with him the change of leadership here; otherwise, it’s a huge vote of no confidence
  • Page 16 panel 4: Cos just re-created the Espionage Squad. The original Squad was Chameleon Boy, Shrinking Violet, Phantom Girl, and Invisible Kid I in ADV 360 when they needed to sneak around in the wake of Universo taking over. But since this group was taken from circa ADV 349, they never had to create the Espionage Squad yet.
  • Page 20 panel 2: It’s Mano! It’s been a while since we’ve seen him, we caught a glimpse of him back in LSH v4 #13 (the State of the Universe story) when he was without his bubble helmet as one of Starfinger III’s goons. Before that (not including the Mordruverse issue), he was last seen in LSH v3 #25 trying to join Emerald Empress’ new Fatal Five.
  • Page 20 panel 3: Ultra Boy says “what’s with that guy’s hand”, recall that the SW6 group was taken from just before the team encountered the Fatal Five, so the team wouldn’t recognize Mano and it’s not likely that they had a lot of time to read up on the adult Legion’s history.
  • Fun facts about this issue:
    • It was released in early 1993, just in time for DC’s trading card second series, after 1992’s Cosmic Cards. This 1993 release was called Cosmic Teams, and featured a 21-card sub-team for the Legionnaires plus a triptych for the team, and Phase and the L.E.G.I.O.N. team. Chris Sprouse and Adam Hughes did the art for most of the Legionnaires. There was also a subset of The New Blood, some new characters and older ones that DC was trying to push, including Timber Wolf and Valor, from their own series.

    • Legionnaires #1 was polybagged with a promo card from Cosmic Teams, the regular picture of Computo on the front with #0000 on the back. Other promo cards were Dragonmage #00 (from Wizard #19), Catspaw #000 (from the 3/4-93 CBG Price Guide), and Apparition #P1 (as a convention giveaway).

    •     
    • DC didn’t really do variant covers yet, but instead they had retailer promotions. For this issue, for every 100 copies of Legionnaires #1 that a store bought, they received one cloisonné pin. They are very hard to find these days. Rather than the typical convention pin which has a wire that goes horizontally through your shirt and catches a latch on the other side, this is like an earring with a metal post and a cap you put on the other side.
