Tom McCraw (LSH/L* co-plotter/colorist), Jeff Moy (L* penciller), and Ron
Boyd (LSH inker) were the guests on America Online's Legion of Super-Heroes
Chat for Tuesday, April 14, 1998. Legion of Super-Heroes Chat takes place
every Tuesday in the DC Comics Online area of AOL at 6:00 PM EST.
Legionnaires Chat is held every Thursday in the same area at 10:00 PM EST.
(Keyword: CHAT DC.) Regular guests include Tom McCraw, Jeff Moy, Jason
Armstrong, Ron Boyd and Mike McAvennie.
Thanks to T. Troy McNemar who originated the Legion Chat Reports; so much
of the format of these writeups was derived from his hard work.
DISCLAIMER: I can't guarantee the reliability of this report. Essentially,
the Legion chats involve about twenty-five fans shouting repeated questions
to the creators. The creators are sometimes unable to answer questions
thoroughly or clarify their responses. As a result, misinterpretations may
occur on my part.
SPOILERS: Information that spoils current or upcoming issues is found
toward the end of this report. There's no spoiler space to separate such
info from the more general comments.

:=========================:
While editor Mike McAvennie has some new LSH pencillers in mind, the choice
hasn't been made yet.
Jeff noted that he rarely sells the original art from the covers.
Jeff didn't think they'd do a rebooted version of "The Great Darkness Saga".
Jeff thinks he needs to work on drawing Superman.
Jeff isn't pencilling the Legion story in the ADVENTURE COMICS 80-PAGE GIANT.
Some of Jeff's upcoming non-superhero work will include pinups in AMAZON,
published by Lone Star Press, about what happens when an "alien babe crash
lands on a planet," and CHIRALITY.
Ron is working on ADVENTURES IN THE DC UNIVERSE #18, a JLA issue. He also
just finished LSH #107.
For the San Diego con program book, Jeff is thinking of drawing a pinup
featuring girls from different versions of the Legion.
The Legion of Super-Villains isn't appearing soon.
If and when Timber Wolf is reintroduced, Jeff would probably give him his
KINGDOM COME costume as designed by Alex Ross.
We can expect LSH SECRET FILES #2 for the beginning of next year, probably
including some file pages on the villains.
Tom said it wasn't a problem getting permission for Superboy and Supergirl
to appear in this timeslip story, since they weren't the focus of the story.
The creators have definite plans for Andromeda.
Something will happen to Brainy at the end of LSH #108.
Tom said we'll see the Subs before the end of the year.
Tom said they're trying to work on a Superboy/Supergirl/Legion crossover.
