Cuitlamiztli Carter asks: I suspect your answer to why you love the Legion of Superheroes so much may boil down to “Because it’s great fun” (which is a valid reason for comics).

Last week’s pledge drive went very well, covering about 90% of my IP renewal cost, so I think it’s time for another requests post. What would you guys like to see?
