This is very exciting news! Legion would have to wait until the team-up of Curt Swan and Jim Shooter for their better stories of the Silver Age, but $17 is not a bad price to pay for some of the classic Ed Hamilton tales, like the battle against Zaryan the Conqueror and the return of the Quintilite Crystal that powered Metropolis.

And Saturn Girl will always be MY favorite Legion leader.

Incidentally, I was able to find some of Ed Hamilton's "Captain Future" pulps; good, fluffy adventure reads featuring Doc Savage in space with wisecracking robots. His wife Leigh Brackett was a better writer, but then again, NEMESIS FROM TERRA was the science fiction equivalent of a pleasure punch to the breadbasket.
