“The Trial of Brainiac Five”

A Legion member is on trial — and the cover by Steve Lightle makes the stakes unmistakably clear. A determined, white-suited Legionnaire jabs an accusatory finger toward the viewer in the foreground, while a green-skinned Brainiac 5 in his purple uniform stands distant and impassive in the background, the bold verdict "GUILTY!" looming over them both. Paul Levitz, Keith Giffen, and Mike DeCarlo bring their considerable talents to this 1988 courtroom drama, making issue #51 a compelling chapter in the Legion's ongoing saga.
