Justice League Vs The Fatal Five: Everything We Know About The JL Reunion
4. From A League To A Legion
Joining the League in their fight against the menacing Fatal Five are Brainiac 5, Saturn Girl, and Star Boy, members of another legendary group of do-gooders, the Legion of Superheroes. The Legion made their comic book debut in the pages of Adventure Comics #247 in April of 1958, and since then has had a myriad of incarnations and lineups.
Initially starting out as a group of teenagers from the future hoping to unite and protect the universe, the Legion eventually grew in numbers and importance. Their comics became very popular and the Legion themselves are woven through the history of DC Comics. They also appeared in the Justice League episode “Far From Home”, where they helped the Justice League take on the Fatal Five.
