Rob and Russell talk about the whole book, starting with the fantastic cover by Mike Grell of ALL of the then-current Legionnaires!!
The majority of the book is, of course, a reprint of the Legion's first recorded battle against Mordru the Merciless (it's right there in the name) from Adventure Comics #s 369-370. There is also a two-page spread of the wedding of Duo Damsel and Bouncing Boy, and several pages profiling the headquarters of the Legion.
According to our sources, Curt Swan inked his own work on this FANTASTIC splash page |
The infamous two-page spread from Superboy/Legion #200 by Dave Cockrum. Click on the image to enlarge it to see the attendees in the nose-bleed sections |
