In "False Dreams," Harmonia Li pulls the strings with a daring gambit that drags Star Boy, Dream Girl, and Mon-El’s consciousness projection into her web.

In "Graduation Day," the newly minted cadets—Power Boy, Lamprey, Crystal Kid, and Nightwind—barely have time to celebrate their graduation before alarms sound at Legion Headquarters.
