The Showcase Presents series collects over 500 pages of reprinted material in each volume. The reprints are presented in black and white, losing some of the flair of the original stories, but allowing purchasers to inexpensively acquire dozens of long out-of-print stories. This first volume of Legion reprints brings the Legionnaires from their fledgling appearance through the first six years of their adventures.
