In "Who Shall Name the Dark Man?", a pivotal moment in the Legion of Super-Heroes saga, Ernie Colón’s dynamic art brings to life a story that delves into legacy and choice. Set in the 30th century, this issue explores the roots of a powerful figure through a quiet, revealing conversation between father and son, all while the cover by Dick Giordano captures the weight of destiny in shadow and light.
