Legion: Secret Origin #3
In "Connections," the Legion’s origins take a dramatic turn as Phantom Girl’s journey to Earth triggers a chain reaction on Anotrom, where a mysterious wormhole widens and unleashes a starship—only for Brainiac 5 to counter with an ancient, forgotten strategy. Meanwhile, Phantom Girl delivers her crucial message and officially becomes part of the Legion, marking the beginning of its first membership drive. Written by Paul Levitz and illustrated by Chris Batista, with inks by Marc Deering, colors by Wes Hartman, and letters by Dezi Sienty, the issue’s cover by Batista and Deering captures the moment’s tension.
