About this Collection

This collection presents the six-issue miniseries Legion: Secret Origin (2011–2012), written by Paul Levitz and illustrated by Chris Batista. It reimagines the early days of the Legion of Super-Heroes, focusing on the team's formation and the first meeting of its founding members in the 31st century. The story explores the origins of key Legionnaires like Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, and Lightning Lad as they unite against a common threat.

"From the Wreckage" marks a pivotal moment in the Legion’s history, spotlighting the team’s resilience as they face renewed threats to R. J. Brande while grappling with internal shifts—Brainiac 5 and Phantom Girl begin a new collaboration, and Gim Allon contemplates a change in his path. Written by Paul Levitz and brought to life by Chris Batista’s dynamic art, with Marc Deering’s inks and Wes Hartman’s colors, this 2012 issue captures the Legion’s struggle to rebuild amid danger. The cover by Batista and Deering perfectly frames the tension, hinting at the stakes without revealing the outcome.

Meanwhile, Brainiac 5 and Phantom Girl start to work together on Anotrom and Gim Allon announces a change in his career plans to his father. Back on Earth, yet another attack on Brande convinces him that his Legion needs more help, and the United Planets Security Directorate comes to the same conclusion.
