THE PATH TO THE 31st CENTURY BEGINS THIS SEPTEMBER WITH LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES: MILLENNIUM

Two-Issue Prelude Series Serves as Gateway to an All-New LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES Ongoing Series from Writer Brian Michael Bendis and Artist Ryan Sook

This September, DC fans will embark on a journey into the future(s) of the DC Universe and the 31st century, as the publisher announced plans for a two-part monthly series, LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES: MILLENNIUM. This two-issue prelude, written by Brian Michael Bendis and featuring art by Jim Lee, Ryan Sook, Nicola Scott and others, paves the way for an all-new LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES ongoing series by Bendis and Sook.

The series focuses on a most unlikely tour guide to the 31st century, a familiar face to DC fans who finds herself suddenly immortal. As she learns to cope with her newfound immortality and the reason she was chosen for this quest, her 1,000-year odyssey will connect all of DC’s future timelines for the very first time. Along the way she encounters a host of DC heroes from the future, as drawn by some of comics’ most popular artists:

• Supergirl, drawn by Jim Lee
• Batman Beyond, drawn by Dustin Nguyen
• Kamandi, drawn by Andrea Sorrentino
• Tommy Tomorrow, drawn by André Lima Araújo

“Since its Silver Age origin, the Legion of Super-Heroes has been the cornerstone of the future DC Universe,” said Bendis. “Over time, a wealth of future characters and stories have emerged since the Legion’s beginnings and connecting these threads to an updated version of the Legion is a story Ryan and I can’t wait to tell.” 

The second issue is scheduled for October and continues this mystery quest, making additional stops in the future DCU, rendered by an equally talented roster of artists:

• Booster Gold, drawn by Nicola Scott
• OMAC, drawn by Jim Cheung
• A DC “off-world” chapter, drawn by Jeff Dekal
• Legion of Super-Heroes, drawn by Ryan Sook
