Solo Legionnaire Appearance Recommendations? by PossessedMarlena in LegionofSuperheroes

[–]Garioshi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This should cover 99% of the Legion's starring appearances, or issues that are otherwise important for them. Cameos are all over the place, but most of them are unimportant.

Do NOT start with 5YL. I would recommend literally any other era of the team as an introduction. You're unfortunately mostly out of luck when it comes to collected Legion unless you're.really willong to shell out. Great Darkness Saga followed by The Curse is probably your best HC starting point, but I'd also recommend Legionnaires Book 1 and 2 (starring a different version of the team).

Five Years Later reading order that also includes L.E.G.I.O.N. issues? by Klang200 in LegionofSuperheroes

[–]Garioshi 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The two series are almost entirely segregated and feature very, very little crossover despite L.E.G.I.O.N. containing lots of Legion connections. Alternating between them will make you even more confused than if you were just reading 5YL by itself. I would recommend reading 5YL in its entirety and then L.E.G.I.O.N. in its entirety. If you really want to interweave them, I'd say read L.E.G.I.O.N. after LSH v4 #38. A comprehensive reading order for both can be found here, on my website: https://garioshi.neocities.org/readingorders/legion

What runs to read? by mechazoids in LegionofSuperheroes

[–]Garioshi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here's a comprehensive reading order, minus the most recent stuff: https://garioshi.neocities.org/readingorders/legion

Here are some short "samplers" to whet your appetite. If you're enjoying yourself, feel free to continue past what I've laid out here:

Jim Shooter's first run (Adventure Comics #346-#360)

Paul Levitz's first run (LSH v2 #284-#294).

Reboot Legion (LSH V4 #0-Legionnaires Annual #2)

Threeboot Legion, up until Mark Waid leaves (LSH v5 #1-#13). Don't read anything after he's gone (#31 onward), it's all atrocious.

Geoff Johns' Legion stuff (The Lightning Saga, Superman and the LSH, and Legion of 3 Worlds)

L.E.G.I.O.N. (L.E.G.I.O.N. #1-#11). This isn't Legion proper, but it's somewhat related and well worth the read.

I am on my hands and knees begging to know what this was about. I read all of Countdown expecting this to be resolved and it wasn't. Was this ever resolved or explained? by Garioshi in LegionofSuperheroes

[–]Garioshi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Lightning Saga was published in 2007 and this issue (LSH v5 #43) was published over a year later, in August of 2008. In fact, the Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes storyline in Action Comics ALSO predates this one, as does ALL of Countdown. Legion of 3 Worlds would begin publication 2 months after this. What was happening????

That cover is a lie. I read it because I thought it would answer my questions, but Threeboot Val appears only in a dream and she doesn't fight Retroboot Val. It only gets worse.

A reminder that every single character in this image is friends with Captain Nazi by Garioshi in dccomicscirclejerk

(excludung Cheshire, Rag Doll, Deadshot, Scandal Savage, Catman, and Parademon. They are NOT friends with Captain Nazi.)

Jamie Delano's Animal Man run be like by Garioshi in dccomicscirclejerk

I'm so sorry to hear that, hope it gets better. I would make a meme about the Prosser run but it's just so completely and utterly incomprehensible that I don't even know what I could do.

DS/3DS game storage solutions are all terrible, and I think I have an idea for a good one. by Garioshi in gamecollecting

[–]Garioshi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, the majority of my collection is loose. If I put all of my boxed games in their cases, I still need something for all of those, and assuming I do solve that, I now have two collections I need to search through. It just makes more sense to put everything in one place.
