whats that thing when one person is thinking something and then a year later someone else thinks it at the same time? im not sure what the laws are, or if the cbldf assists in suing a company for copying a parody of characters they own?
anyway, all those caught up in the awful gravitational pull of my life knows how i feel about the legion of superheros. i have a never near complete collection of legion books, and just recently acquired this:
the first appearance of the legion. woo.
anyway, about a year ago, in my comic THE NEW 20, which could be found….HERE! http://www.comicspace.com/jab/comics.php?action=gallery&comic_id=1777
i did a legion parody where heroes from the future come to this time to bring me BACK! to the future because in some sort of bill and ted style i save free speech. It’s basically a hilarious rip off of the legion’s first appearance and then quickly becomes a series of torture jokes. comedy.
so today i was reading the new issue of Ambush Bug, written by former Legion god and savior and creator of Trencher- Keith Giffen, and it had this page:
