LEGION LOST (II) 14.

Continuing this title's final story line, Superboy and some of the Ravagers
are brought in to play, along with Harvest and some of his Culling team.
Here's where things get even weirder than they have been: They are all on
the same side fighting the space alien Daggor. They aren't having much
luck, for Daggor causes some sort of giant alien machine to start to form in
the middle of the desert, while fighting everyone else. Didn't I mention,
we are now in Arizona? Gates recognizes it and says it is what scarred him,
and if they don't flee they will die. Naturally, that is the cliff-hanger
ending to the issue. Other oddities: Harvest recognizes and calls SP
Captain Adym by name. Rather odd, since he just arrived from the future
last issue. Lure, of the current era SP also knows him. ??? Superboy has a
subliminal trigger that was implanted by Harvest back during the Culling
apparently, which Harvest triggers now, with the command to "Kill. Maim.
Destroy--" Kind of vague, don't you think? What if he does just that to
your own minions Harvest?

SUPERBOY (VI) `4.

The LLost team gets some head shots in one panel, as Superboy starts a new
story in his own book, with footnotes conveniently telling us that it takes
place after LLOST 14-16. So not only does Superboy survive the story above,
he appears in the remaining issues of the story too. Anyway, Superboy meets
and fights a Bizarro version of himself that apparently only he can see or
hear. The Teen Titans get called into this story too.

Until next time,
