It’s the Silver Age again! It
started out as a one-off Superboy story and turned into a long running
exploration of the DC Universe 100 years in the future. The Legion are not
known as well today as they were 30 years ago, but by the 1980’s they were a
critical and commercial success at DC Comics. In this episode we take a look at
the first appearance in the Superboy story that introduced the Legion of
Super-Heroes and their origin from DC Super-Stars #17! Part 1 of a
multi-episode look at this classic super team!
