I love that in this run of Adventure they did this to them like three different times.  Right--according to Shooter, Weisinger gave his writers instructions to "recycle" the following plots every couple of years or so: 1) baby Legionnaires 2) female Legionnaires take over 3) Super-Pets Surely 'a traitor joins the Legion to destroy it' should be on that list as well? |

Oh yes, absolutely! Great point. I was just listing what Shooter mentioned in a particular interview (he said Weisinger kept a list of stories that sold well). Shooter said he's lucky he escaped having to write a baby Legionnaires  tale, but he did do stories for the second and third listed above. There are definitely other frequently-appearing premises, as you state. I loved the incarcerated Legionnaires epics (such as the Super-Stalag of Space two-issue story, or the "Outlaw Legion" story in #359-360). EDIT: Sorry, forgot which thread I was in! Will post any further LSH musings here: classiccomics.boards.net/thread/2686/interlac-spoken-legion-heroes-thread |

I don't wanna be "that guy" but Jez said it had to be at least 2 babes on the cover.

Another great theme! Only one babe here, but more than that would probably be breaking a law. And I do mean babe... Oh Charlton, is it a sin to exploit your own exploitation for the sake of comic cover contest?  |
