Hey Daniel, are you a LOSH fan?
Yeah, mostly the early stuff, but I read/collected a lot of issues throughout the 80's as well. I always found the concept to be very cool. I ran across the cartoon version a while back and found myself watching several episodes of it. I would prefer a different type of animation for it, but I guess that's the new style for cartoons these days.

Same here. The cartoon was okay, but not really the type I would have chosen for the characters.
I'm a big fan of the pre-crisis LOSH, but I enjoy the post-crisis Legion too. I do have hope though (and Geoff Johns hinted at this recently) that DC will begin publishing a new Legion book featuring the pre-crisis LOSH.
