“The Legion of Superheroes are coming soon.” We learned at New York ComicCon 2025 that Joshua Williamson will write a new Legion book. But what Legion? Mark Waid had previously said a new Legion book is coming, and fans will be happy no matter which version of the Legion is their favorite. When we saw the “Legion Lost” survivors in Superman 29, including a Threeboot Legionnaire, this got us talking.  Who might have survived?  What if they came from a bunch of Legions past?   Adam Crouch, from The Legion Outpost podcast, and I thought, “What fun it might be to play editor and pick our own Legion!” Michael from the Legion of Substitute Podcasters, Derek from Tomorrow’s Heroes Today and Dave from The Legion Outpost join us to represent a cross-section of fan opinions.  This veritable Legion of Legion Podcasters join together for a special crossover recruitment episode.  We recruit a version of all the Legionnaires who appeared in multiple versions and then a few each who are unique to their version.  We share our choices and our opinions.

Geoff Johns’ many threads are woven together as it all comes to a crescendo.
