Game Summary

Five Years Later ...

A thorough description of the DC 30th century after the 5 year gap that preceded volume 4 of the comic book.

THIs book does have stats for major characters, but most of the book is background, including lots of in-world text files, a history of the Legion from 2973 to 2995 and more.

Ironically this book was the best background for this version of the Legion published anywhere, and it contained lots of info never found in the comics.

Notes on This Edition
A 128-page squarebound book. This was the third Legion sourcebook, following two 1986 sourcebooks which described the Legion before the 5-year gap.

8 / 10ShannonAA superb 5YL sourcebook, though not much of a game book. (There aren't many stats.)
8 / 10yorrickThe Giffen-Bierbaum run on the Legion certainly has its detractors, but this sourcebook helps as much as the original comics in trying to sort through the epic and convoluted storyline that they crafted.
