A lot of the older stuff has been reprinted as archives and showcase
presents...and almost all the newer stuff has been collected
normally...the only run that hasn't been reprinted that I think really
deserves it is DnA Legion run.

But I feel it be good to reprint them from begining to now, this include
the SuperBoy comics an the backup features it had for awhile, and any
other books that had the Legion in it!

Yeah, good luck with that...that's like 50 years of stories for a
property that can't even consistently keep an ongoing title
going...never gonna happen.

Actually, they're just about to the ACTION back-up era in the SHOWCASE
PRESENTS line, and into the First Levitz Period in the DC ARCHIVES books,
with everything but the Legion cameos (stuff where they popped up in the
last two or three panels of, say, a LOIS LANE or JIMMY OLSEN book to get
Otto Binder or Ed Hamilton out of a jam) having been collected in both.

(The ARCHIVES would be even further along had Levitz not been pretty much
wholly unwilling to have his own work reprinted while serving as
publisher.)

They're working on getting it all into print. Be patient. Meantime,
there's plenty out there already:

Yeah, but he's including the more modern stuff too...and guest
appearances...at the very least, I really can't see much of the 90s
Legion stuff getting reprinted anytime soon...it wasn't exactly a
highpoint for the Legion but there is quite a lot of it, none the
less.

Exactly print the book in series of 20 issues of the Legion series and
connecting ones, til it get to current! That include the Who Who's
guides!

Of course, if DC could get its collective ca-ca together and release
electronic versions of books like Marvel has (Iron Man, etc.) on PDF,
then they >could< 'reprint' tonnes of stuf easily and cheaply
