Indexer Notes

This incarnation of the Legion of Super-Heroes were introduced in Superman (DC, 2018 series) #14-16 and Supergirl (DC, 2016 series) #33, where they traveled back in time to ask Superboy to come to the future to join the Legion. Superboy was previously shown with the Legion briefly in Legion of Super-Heroes: Millennium (DC, 2019 series) #2 in a scene that appears to take place between pages of this issue.
