## Resource

Jim and Jay discuss the Bronze Age of the Legion - beginning with the Legion as a backup in Superboy to the spotlight on Wildfire. We take a look at the amazing art, some of the craziest stories ever created, and iconic stories and character moments that have defined the team since the 1970s! We explain what was happening in the comic book industry at the time and how that influenced the look and stories, with in depth discussions on the return of Jim Shooter, the beginnings of Paul Levitz's Legion career, and the importance of Dave Cockrum and Mike Grell to the success of the team!
