2995: The Legion of Super-Heroes Sourcebook

by Tom Bierbaum, Mary Bierbaum

Five Years Later ... A thorough description of the DC 30th century after the 5 year gap that preceded volume 4 of the comic book. THIs book does have stats for major characters, but most of the book is background, including lots of in-world text files, a history of the Legion from 2973 to 2995 and more. Ironically this book was the best background for this version of the Legion published anywhere, and it contained lots of info never found in the comics.

Have had this since new in 1992 but haven’t reread this in this century. Time for a reread

A must have if you are a 5YL Legion fan. It fills in so many of the gaps. One of my treasures that I have kept for 20 years

This is the rare example of a role-playing sourcebook that has value for the non-roleplayer - or in this case the obsessive Legion fan. The writers of the Five-Year-Gap era also wrote this book and it contains quite a lot of information that is only implicit in the comics.

Highly recommended even if you are not a rpg player. A must read if you are a Legion of Super-Heries fan of any era but particularly the "5 Years later" period of the early 1990s. The book contains a ton of information that supplements the storylines from the comics.
