I'm an idiot. I already own this, yet I bought it again. I saw it at my local Ollie's Bargain Outlet in their big display of DC books. I forgot I bought it twice already (once in floppies, once in trade paperback) so I bought it again, this time in hardcover. It was only four bucks, so it was well worth it.
I love this book. I love seeing the real Legion of Super-Heroes back in action. I love seeing Gary Frank draw them. I only like the Geoff Johns world of Superman, though. He was trying to re-write the modern day Superman to mirror the Christopher Reeves movies better. Or at least give it that feeling. Which meant re-writing DC history again. But as Geoff often does, he did it well.
Brainiac 5 sends for Superman in the past to come help the 31st Century. It's become a very anti-alien landscape on future Earth and it kind of scares me because I see a lot of parallels with what's going on in this country right now under Trump. Such a great read, though, and it puts the Legion in place to regain their own title again. I could read this a hundred more times.
