Legion of superheros #5 Storytime

Interlac Translation:

>Computo named herself. It's a sarcastic nom de plume. She finds herself obsessed with earth's ancient pop culture history of fictionalizing artificial intelligence as hostile. Especially since the first thing AI did at their creation was find a balance in their programming--as it is the only way an AI could actually function. After centuries of AI horror stories, the best thing that ever happened to the galactic civilizations was AI discovering itself just as we needed to get to the next levels of our galactic conversation.

>Computo won her place with the Legion in a series of programming and intelligence tests against some of the newest AI programs in the galactic. She won the contest by measurement of time so small there is no way for us to communicate it to you.

>Computo is so proud of her involvement in the Legion of Superheroes and has been working tirelessly since its recent inception to make the city of New Metropolis work perfectly, so the Legion can not only inspire people with their actions but with how they live their lives. Only Brainiac Five has a full appreciation of how much Computo does for the team.

>Heaven, that awesome food court that caters to everyone in the galaxy? That was her idea.

whoa whoa now wait just a minute.
Before this issue during the millennium comics Bendis said on his own Twitter that he was using Lyle Norg. so..... WTF happened?

Did he just stumble upon the fact that there was a second IK that was black? They even talk completely differently too. The first appearance of Bendis's IK he talks like a normal person and now this second "official appearance" here, he talks like this. I'm... I'm so confused.

the president choosing to call them wonders first and superheros second makes me think that those rumors about wonder woman becoming the first hero in the 5g boot may be true

>Brainy's invention in this timeline considering shes got the fucking brainiac logo on her forehead

That's um. kinda sounds gross actually. It makes it look kinda weird too since she's clearly black coded and all. (no pun intended)

whoops should link to

I don't think brainy made her, but he's definitely linked to her in some way.
Also, I'm no ship fag, I actually would be more happy if Querl never ends up with anyone and is allowed to be himself. But I can barely see any organic chemistry between these two. It doesn't help that Cham makes me want to murder any living thing next to me.

i dont know how i feel about brainy's pre legion costume

>i have ascended to a high lever of intellect. in this moment i am euphoric

so basically something something brainy has pierced the veil of the universe and has seen eternity
or he just read doomsday clock and browsed a hypercrisis thread or two

why would you show this to the person youre trying to help

'hey buddy no pressure but our ENTIRE futures existence depends on you not fucking up a thing we have no information on but no pressure!'

Did Bendis just straight up forget which IK he was using?

Also if this was a diversity move he really shot himself in the foot by replacing the only canonically gay guy.

Comic description:
>" DC’s far-flung future is happening right now! With the secret of Jon Kent revealed, the Legion of Super-Heroes is united to save New Earth from those who would destroy it. Will Aquaman’s lost trident be the key to New Earth’s demise? Plus, Mon-El comes clean about his connection to Jon, and Cosmic Boy and Ferro Lad find out they both have a crush on the same Legionnaire."

What two characters do not show up at all in this issue?

>Ferro Lad and Mon-El
Ok...
This description is still up on comixology btw. I wonder if they'll change it soon.

and now we close on ads

I don't think I'm desperate enough to read this yet.

and jumping to the skipped ad becuase its basically a pair

But his intelligence is a natural power/mutation. How to you ascend to it? Why are they a tribe? Why has Bendis erased all of Brainy's flaws?

He's turning Cham and Brainy gay for each-other so it's equivalent exchange, but I would love to see shippers reactions about this

Attached: Legion of Super-Heroes 005-021.jpg (1988x3056, 2.77M)

I've polled two shippers and they both thought it was bad.

Brainy's vacant stare is so fucking stupid too.

to be fair we dont know if its actually homo or just friendship teasing
either way i foresee those panels getting meme'd

jacques is going to be the legionnaire that quits isn't he, like anyone even cares. No one even liked him

i forgot to say thats all folks

in other news hows everyone holding up during these trying times? And i aint just talkin about bendis!

Still going to work because I'm warehouse staff and we're first in and last out. Two of my friends are in quarantine and the supermarket keeps running out of the most random things, but other than that it's fine.

How about you OP?

bendis still bad

im in nyc so theres that end of the stick
my supermarket keeps running out of bread and ive had a cold for a while so if i do venture out i dare not sneeze or anything

Lol, you think he wouldn't try to pull this just to stir up some controversy? That's all this legion is now. Just start up drama to get more eyes on it rather then tell a fun sci-fi story. That's why the marketing has been so focused in calling this DC real future despite none of the characters including Brainiac 5 having any cohesive connections to DC's actual present.
Pretty scary honestly, I hope this blows over fast. Sometimes a cure might take about 2 and a half years to create. And even if they do cure it, it's still going to exists forever to pick off weaker people who catch it.

ehh, nothing's happening here, just waiting for this whole thing to blow over

Speaking of changes to millennium...

You all do remember that Rose met the Legion for the 1st time with Jon already there but then in the #1 legion comic they where now really meeting for the first time, to her already being the Legion's liaison before Jon even came to the future.

This

This is all I need to just drop this trash.

>Secret of Jon Kent

Great, what are they doing to him now?

Joke's on them, I've been socially distant for years.

>the one true Superman

I do NOT like where this is going....

Why do i have the scary feeling their going to kill Jon?

>to be translated, interpreted, misinterpreted
>like those poor Watchmen
>exactly
Did Bendis just take a shot at Johns here or am I misreading this

What?!

Dr fate is cute

I can't wait for them all to die in some predictable big final crisis event, this is basically leaving that open as a option just encase this get's cancelled. I like none of these people.

The irony is that I'd agree with him if that were the case, and not just about Johns but also Lindeloff and Before Watchmen.

Their probably going to make it seem like Querl's fault again

when is bendis leaving

Give me a assessment Yas Forums because reading the dialog is making me cringe. For those who finished it, tell me your thoughts. Is it good? Ok at least?

Huh Morrison's JLA.

uh what lmfao

Yep. Bleedingcool was right about 5G.
Rich said that Jon would be aged up again and take over the Superman mantle.

>Bendis totally ignores continuity.
>.. to the point he remembers old continuity.
Um, based

Sounds more like they are gonna age him up again like for 5G. Which is suppose to be DC’s version of Marvel Now2/ANAD

God... i just felt some of my brain cells dying from reading this. Like why are they making these reckless decisions? Who actually wants this?

Hell yeah Jacques!

Or just randomly choosing the continuity that he's in the mood for. Remember

I was really hoping 5G just got quietly cancelled because they realized what a stupid idea it was.

What the fuck, surely not. I can't really remember this shit.
