Annotations for LSH v4 #58:

• On sale 4/12/94
• Legion of Substitute Podcasters episode 704 (April 11, 2022)
• Timeline: Sept 29, 2995

Notes:

• Page 6 panel 1: first appearance of the Infinite Library, found by Glorith, which she used to restore her powers.
• The Infinite Library was "built outside of time by unknown hands. This fabled library's volumes store the history of everyone and everything in every timeline. Scholars have spent lifetimes searching for it, always in vain."
• Could it have been part of Lucien's library (from "Sandman")? Here's the description of part of that library, as in this quote from "Season of Mists":
• Lucien: "Oh, it's a very unusual library, Matthew. Somewhere in here is every story that has every been dreamed. "
  Matthew: "They're just books."
  Lucien: "Oh yes. But unusual books. You'll find none of them on Earth. In this section, for example, are novels their authors never wrote, or never finished, except in dreams.”
• Page 9 panel 4: Cupid and the Lallorians all appeared last issue, and it’s “Garak” of the Glow, not “Garax”.
• Page 24 panel 4: Mordru reverts to his younger self, as seen in the Amethyst miniseries

Cutting down the timeline to just the last couple months since it was getting so long. I'm color coding them based on whether the date appeared in the 2995 Sourcebook (yellow; text in yellow is as written in the Sourcebook), it's a confirmed date that was given in the comic (green), or an estimated date based on keeping track of events and days (cyan). Bold text is something new added this issue. Italics are unknown dates.
