- The Legion Of Superheroes have a huge membership, so it's impossible to cover everyone in a single video. I am going to do some occasional spotlight videos on different LOSH characters, topics, and storylines. This first one is about Drake Burroughs, better known as Wildfire who was leader of the Legion for awhile (as well as Legion Lost). He continues to be one of DC comics most interesting characters, and I hope this video explains why.

Lovely! Wildfire is my 2nd favorite (after Timber Wolf). I'll watch any Legion video you do.
Thanks! Timberwolf has gotten at least two votes now!
@@Animedad Three now!
70's Timberwolf with demon eyes and pointed hair tips is the REAL Timberwolf.
Wow, memories, he was definitely one of my favs on the 80s!
Outstanding,Wildfire is my most favorite Legionnarie beside Timber Wolf,also I really enjoy your video thanks for sharing Bruce 👌 them coming and have a remarkable Monday.☺💪
Great video! I love this character and remember reading that origin story issue many times... I also liked Ultra Boy despite the fact that he could only use one power at a time. His crenellated boots were funky too! Maybe you can do a feature video on him sometime. So many great characters in the Legion...
She ran callin' "Wiiiiiiildfire!"
Brings a tear to my eye every time...
The Legion was one of my favorites. The Great Darkness WOW .Paul Levitz & Keith Giffen were a great team. Some of the best stories of the time. Drake was one of my favorites. Long Live The Leigon.
Wildfire was my favourite LSH characters.
my fav character of dc's
Hi Bruce, I found your channel through your demon slayer videos and have enjoyed all your videos I've seen. I look forward to all your future content, good luck growing your channel!
Awesome, thank you!
Drake is a guy who Dawny LOVES. That was always massive to me, it's like " He's reduced to pure angry energy and this wonderful ethereal girl loves HIM" . I know that sounds lame.
my fav character
In Brazil, Wildfires was called as PULSAR. A much better name in my opinion. I loved this character as a teenager in the 80's.
I like the name PULSAR
"...among other things." Tee-hee. 😄
Fun and informative, as always!
Thanks!
It was two heroes in TT that were called StarFire. The one that was around in the early days of was a Russian Hero called Starfire(1968). It was changed later when Kory aka Starfire came around in the 80s.
I loved how after quislet taught him how to make a body ends up with dawnstar going to dr ghm'll to get some burn cream
Love to hear more about money / valor and jo nah the ultra boy / emerald dragon
Legends of a Dead Earth was a great issue.
Along with Ferro, Drake didn't get a fair break.
Tyroc the legionarie , Tyroc
very well made video!
Thank you!
LONG LIVE THE LEGION!
Yes. Bruce, my itch is scratched.
hey bruce hiw about covering the legion of super villans? that would be interesting at least i think so
Super research.
Loved Drake!
Now do the Legion of Super-Pets. Don't forget "Biron the Bowman" and "Blockade Boy 2"
Hi, Bruce! I love it! Thank you for doing this. So few a US citizen & DC fans cover LSH.
It's my childhood memory too - though I was & here I am in Indonesia.
After 4 decades, still LSH i love the most.
What you do reminds me of my late dad who brought some comic novel when I was 5.
I still remembered that clearly.
And my first memory of LSH was when he read a LSH pocket book in bed.
I wondered what he's doing since he was so relax & focus reading it.
So I joined him.
But since I couldn't read at that time (maybe that's the reason my writing is like chicken scratch), I was just pretending I did understand the story by observing his eyes & head move from the top, left to right and to the bottom and repeat the same action until he turned over the page.
The image is forever in my mind as the young Superboy, in flight mode along with so many super heroes.
Almost 4 years ago, I found that cover image again, in the internet.
I just shed tears with those memories.
The title of the pocket book is Superboy & the Legion of Super Heroes.
It was the young Superboy smiles facing us while Ultra Boy, Element Lad, Light Lass who are closer to him, and others, Princess Projectra, Lightning Lad, Dream Girl, Star Boy, Shrinking Violet, Brainiac 5, Wildfire, Collosal Boy, Sun Boy, Cham, Mon-El & lastly Timber Wolf (just a half part of his image) - all fly go the sky facing up right side.
With the tag on the below right side --
'The peace-keeping force of the 30th century joined by the grratest super-hero of the 20-th century."
Too bad I couldn't find the book anymore.
Nor I didn't remember what the story is all about, either.
So I wonder if ... And if you are willing, and if it's possible for you to cover the story inside that comic novel (aka the pocket book) in your future video.
That would be terrific, incredible & so beautiful.
Again thank you very much, Mr.Brande, my man! 😊
Keep doing this - there will be more of us to join 'the Legion' you found. ✨❤
Up to the 30th century! 🌟
PS:
I suggest you also enclose the title of the book of the panels that were shown in every vidoes you have.
Boy, that would be awesome! 😊
One thing to mention: Wildfire's original costume survived the explosion, but Wildfire avoids using it because of its one-of-a-kind status. The subsequent costumes created by Brainiac Five were not as good as Wildfire's original.
I've always been a fan of Polar Boy.
MY GOAT
He's a Captain Atom inspired hero.
Bruce, ya did good!
If there can't be duplicate powers in the Legion, how do you explain Ultra Boy, Mon-El, Supergirl, and Superboy?
I can’t 🤷🏻♂️
@@Animedad yeah, I'm thinking they threw that in for a little drama.
I think you hit the nail on the head
Supergirl and Superboy received special dispensations given their historical importance (and Superboy being a direct inspiration for the Legion founding.
Mon-El was already a member at that point.
Aside from those three, everyone who joins must have at least ONE power all his or her own. Just *having* duplicate powers doesn't keep one from joining, if you have one unique ability.
In Ultra-Boy's case, I'm pretty sure that it's just the fact that his Ultra-Vision can see thru lead, where the Supers and Mon-El can't.
Thanks .Chameleon lad looks a good choice for knowing more about
Cover Mon-El or Cameleon Boy's origin.
Wildfire looks like a Soviet Superhero
Will someone please talk about when the Legion fought Darkside please,
I have an awesome idea for a legion reboot in DC comics.Who can I talk too. Not a great artist but have an awesome idea t revamp the legion.
Wildfire, Dr Manhattan, Captain Adam, Major Force, all different yet one and the same?
How about one of these for each member! Plenty to pick from to start
do the great darkness saga please
Ultra boy
Sounds a lil like firestorm.kinda
I have the same ring 👍
I'm sorry never heard of him myself.
I would like to know about element lad dream girl star boy light lass princess projector shadow lass tyroc ferro lad stone boy fire lad polar boy color kid
