The 1994 version of the Legion of Super-Heroes (also called the post–Zero Hour or Reboot Legion) is a fictional superhero team in the 31st century of the DC Universe. The team is the second incarnation of the Legion of Super-Heroes, following after the 1958 version, and was followed by the 2004 rebooted version. It first appeared in Legion of Super-Heroes (vol. 4) #0 (October 1994) and was created by Mark Waid, Tom McCraw and Stuart Immonen.
Following the continuity reboot, a new Legion continuity was created, beginning with a retelling of the origin story starting in Legion of Super-Heroes (vol. 4) #0 and then continued in spin-off sister series Legionnaires #0 (both released in October 1994).[1] Several members from the previous continuity are given new codenames and several new heroes are added, including XS, Sensor, Kinetix, and Gates.
While in some ways following the pattern of the original continuity, the new continuity diverged from the old one in several ways: some characters died as they had previously, others did not, and some Legion members spent time in the 20th century where they recruited Ferro. The Legion are initially not allies of the United Planets, earning their respect by exposing their president Chu as corrupt and defeating the White Triangle.[2]
In Legion Lost, a group of Legionnaires disappear through a spatial rift and struggle to return home. The ensuing limited series Legion Worlds (2001) showed what was happening back in the United Planets during their absence.
A new series, The Legion, is launched in which the Legion reunites and gains a new base and purpose. Written for its first 33 issues by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, the series was cancelled with issue #38. The most notable addition to the team during the title's publication was the post-Crisis Superboy, a 21st-century clone of Superman and Lex Luthor who had previously been granted honorary membership.
The post-Zero Hour Legion appears in , written by Geoff Johns and drawn by George Pérez. The miniseries features the 1994 Legion teaming up with Superman and the post-Infinite Crisis and 2004 incarnations of the Legion to fight the Legion of Super-Villains and the Time Trapper.[3] [4]
