What is a fanlisting?
It's a web clique that lists fans of a particular subject. A person does not need a web site in order to join. Fans from around the world submit their information and they are then listed to show their love. And that's it! Simple really.

And the Legion?
Well, this particular fanlisting was built to honor The Legion of Super-Heroes, a DC Comic that has been running off and on, in one form or another, for over 50 years now. It has three main continuities: the Original, the Reboot, and the Threeboot, all with their own distinct flavors and differing takes on what the Legion is and how it came to be. I've taken scans from comics I own from each era to give you a little taste of the changes the series has undergone.
Set thousands of years after most of the rest of DC's canon, in the 30th and 31st centuries, to be exact, Legion is always the story of a group of teenagers, some human but mostly alien, who come together from all corners of the United Planets to protect the universe from . . . well, what exactly varies, although there are a few fan favorites. It's part serious super-heroing, part teen drama, but overall a really excellent series that has gotten a lot of interest and acclaim over the course its long history. Its popularity comes and goes, it's true, but it definitely deserves to be memorialized.
