The Legion of Super-Heroes

Following the events of the "Great Darkness Saga," this 1984–1985 series from DC Comics' Federal imprint saw the Legion of Super-Heroes disbanded and scattered across the galaxy. The core creative team of Keith Giffen, Larry Mahlstedt, and Dave Cockrum charted a darker, more fractured era for the team, as former members clashed over ideology and a new, mysterious threat emerged. This seven-issue run is a pivotal, transitional period for the Legion, stripping the team to its foundations and redefining its purpose.
