Plot Summary
Overview
The tenth year of the Legion was one filled with innovation and change. All through 1968, storytellers Jim Shooter, Mort Weisinger, E. Nelson Bridwell, Curt Swan, Win Mortimer, and Pete Costanza continued to expand upon what was, and still is, one of DC's most enduring super-teams. Perhaps the foremost addition to the Legion canon was the filling in of one of the most obvious gaps in the group's history: their origin. Told for the first time was the tale of three teenagers and their transformation into the core of the Legion of Super-Heroes—a story that has remained largely unchanged even into the present. Their origin was not the only new and lasting addition to the Legion's history from this period. 1968 also saw the introduction of the Legion Academy, training ground for Legionnaires-to-be; the Tornado Twins, 30th-century descendants of Barry (The Flash) Allen; the threats of Mordru the Merciless and the Legion of Super-Villains; and the induction of Timber Wolf and Chemical King. And it all happened a thousand years from yesterday, in a bright, optimistic future protected by a band of teenagers called the Legion of Super-Heroes...
