The Legion #35

Sep 2004 · DC · 2.50 USD; 3.85 CAD
“For No Better Reason, Part One: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea”

In "For No Better Reason, Part One: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea," the Legion faces a sudden crisis as Dreamer vanishes during a ceremony in Metropolis, her disappearance linked to the mysterious villain Devil. With Pinter DeRoy en route to the isolated prison Oasis One and the city’s power grid collapsing, the Legion must respond to a deadly ambush—just as a sniper takes aim. Written by Gail Simone and brought to life by Dan Jurgens’ dynamic art, with Andy Smith’s inks, Sno-Cone’s colors, and Rob Leigh’s lettering, this issue blends high-stakes tension with the Legion’s signature camaraderie. The cover by Adam Hughes captures the moment’s intensity with striking precision.

As Karate Kid transports Pinter DeRoy to the floating maximum security prison Oasis One, the Legionnaires are being honored immediately below in the center of Metropolis. Chuck Taine contacts Brainiac 5 during the ceremony to inform him that Dreamer has gone missing. She has been taken by Devil, who uses Dreamer's abilities to enhance her comrade Canary's ability to knock out all the power in the Metropolis Hub, including the floating Oasis One, leaving the Legionnaires and President Wazzo vulnerable to a sniper.
