Special guest Mo Walker joins Derek and Brent as they and some Legion teens explore the notion of Crisis. 

A mysterious stranger lurks among the teens and has a very strong resemblance to a few past LSH characters.  The teens recount a story of the silver age LSH meeting Green Lanterns, Hal Jordan and Alan Scott and the Flashes, Jay Garrick and Barry Allen. 

In a second story the Secret Society of Super Villains meet Karate Kid and the LSH.  Finally the Crisis on Infinite Earths hits and Sensor Girls and Quislet among others interfere with the Anti Monitor’s cosmic cannon.  None of this happened you say?  Hmm … perhaps not.

Cosmic Boy, Brainiac 5 and … Sun Boy defeat the elusive Praetor Lemnos and his hoards of agents of Terra Firma.  Parallels are drawn between these Otherspace  grandchildren of criminals and Derek and Brent’s own convict history in Terra Australis.  As the issue closes Brainiac 5, like Mr Freeze before him, visits his love in a cryotube as he  continues to search for a way to save Dream Girl. We also discuss a series of flashbacks appearing in a backup story where Nura gets serious foreboding of her own demise.  The comical Legion Outpost letter column returns and is drawn by guest artist, Amanda Conner!

Brent and Derek deal with the aftermath of Elysian’s attack on Legion headquarters.  Saturn Girl has no thoughts on the matters at hand and Brainy’s are just not smart enough.  

Sno Cone, the colourist, breaks loose exploring the United Planets in this issue.  Trippy Ttrxl is both a maths teacher’s and a surrealist’s dreamscape.  Dormir is a planet of lightburst inklings, notions and cloudy, yet firm, concepts.  It is also the home of the Public Service neural network controlling the teenagers of the 31st century UP.  Otherspace is a marshalling point for an upcoming invasion.
