Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The 11th volume of Legion of Super-Heroes Archives is marked by the full-time arrival of artist Mike Grell.The stories, in Superboy 203-212, were mostly by Cary Bates and E. Nelson Bridwell before Legion legend Jim Shooter returned, and the general format was a main story followed by a shorter story concentrating on a Legionnaire or two.The stories--the Legion of Super-Executioners, the Legion of Super-Villains, a showdown with a band of Legion rejects, a ghostly soldier--are enjoyable but minor, and even the death of a Legionnaire seems like an anti-climax.Still, no one could draw Dream Girl in a negligee quite like Grell. --David Horiuchi

This edition covers SUPERBOY (first series) #203-212 (c.1974-1975) with artwork by Mike Grell and scripts by Cary Bates, E. Nelson Bridwell and Jim Shooter. This book starts off with a bang with the death of a Legionnaire and follows up with appearances by the Legion of Super-Villians, Legion of Substitute Heroes, and the retirement of a Legionnaire. There are several fun back-up stories here, including the romance between Brainiac 5 and Supergirl and the story of how a normal fan got to be "Hero for a Day". Some stories are less interesting, but overall a worthwhile read for a Legion fan.
