DC announces ‘Legion of Super-Heroes: Millennium’ returns in new ongoing series

#DCMillennium finally revealed as a two-part, monthly comic.

The mystery surrounding #DCMillennium has finally been solved — DC has announced that Legion of Super-Heroes will finally make its long awaited return this fall in a special two-part prelude that kicks off with Legion of Super-Heroes: Millennium #1.

The two-part monthly comic will lead into a new ongoing series from Brian Michael Bendis and Ryan Sook. Leading up to the new series, Bendis will work with a number of all-star artists, including Jim Lee, Jim Cheung, Nicola Scott, and Dustin Ngyuen, to explore the future and help pave the way for a 31st century quest to connect all of DC’s future timelines that ultimately end on the doorstep of the Legion.

“This is absolutely the most ambitious project we have ever been involved in,” said Bendis in a statement.
