My favorite superhero is Spider Man but my favorite super team was, is and always will be the Legion of Super Heroes. Back in January of 1980, the Legion finally got their own ongoing book with issue #259. It marked the beginning of a fabulous era of storytelling with this heroic team from the 30th […]
