There have been rumors floating around for months that Jim Shooter is going to be off the Legion of Super-Heroes.
Well, he's an interview with Geoff Johns, writer of the upcoming Legion of 3 Worlds, today at Newsarama:
So, I'll wager 50,000 quatloos that the book announced at San Diego is the Legion. Any takers?
BTW, if you're too lazy to read the interview, the 3 legions involved are the "original" Legion (don't get me started) as depicted in their recent Action Comics run, the Zero Hour Legion, and the current Shooter run (based off the Waid reboot).
Well, he's an interview with Geoff Johns, writer of the upcoming Legion of 3 Worlds, today at Newsarama:
Geoff Johns: Legion of 3 Worlds, while an epic on its own, sets up a lot of things for 2009 in the DCU. It’s grown out of my work on Action Comics, Justice Society of America, Green Lantern, The Flash, Teen Titans and Infinite Crisis. It’s strange, looking at it in the big picture. It’s a culmination in a sense for me and leads me to the next level and the next books.
NRAMA: So this story will have ramifications on more than just the 31st Century?
GJ: There are some major ramifications. Specifically in titles I’m working on and going to be working on. One will be announced in San Diego.

Good guess, but it's "Flash: Rebirth", with the return of Barry Allen.
ReplyDeleteI'll take the 50,000 quatloos in large bills.
I'll hold off on paying until Monday, just in case something more is announced. After all, Flash:Rebirth is not an ongoing (yet), and doesn't seem to tie into LO3W (again, yet), so I'm not 100% certain yet that we're done hearing Johns announcements.
ReplyDeleteJust in case, do you have change for a quadrillion-quatloo bill (they're based on Zimbabwean currency...)?
I thought Shooter was back on Legion after being booted off. Last week, Rich Johnston in his Lying in the Gutters column said DC and Shooter had patched things up and he was back to writing Legion.
