4. Superboy’s Legion

…landed in the far future?”

This one really barely feels like an Elseworlds story. Although that might be because “someone wrote a new origin story for the Legion of Superheroes” is a phrase spoken only slightly less often than the phrase “Why is Kelsey Grammer in this terrible movie?”. But this is a fun one of those.

In the story, baby Kal-El lands in the 30th century and helps found the Legion of Superheroes, alongside Saturn Girl and Cosmic Boy. The first half of the book covers the Legion getting together, and as such is mostly introduction. The only real story beat is Ultra Boy being a mega jerkface, but that gets resolved pretty quickly. The rest of the thing is about Superboy’s Legion fighting the Fatal Five.

It’s mostly just typical Legion of Superheroes fair, but I like that stuff, so I like this. And you probably will too.
