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 issues, but allowing purchasers to inexpensively acquire dozens of long out-of-print tales. This fourth volume of Legion reprints presents their stories as they conclude their classic Adventure Comics run, continue in regular backup stories in Action Comics, and finally as they are relegated to occasional stories in the first Superboy series.

Reprinted material

The following material is reprinted in this volume:
