I forgot to mention that Jim also allowed me to reprint a piece he had originally written for DC's digest line (it actually eventually appeared in The Legion Outpost # 10) as the introduction to The Legion Companion. I wanted to update it grammatically so that it sounded like it was written recently, but he asked me to leave it as it was, so I did. My goal heading into making The Legion Companion was to have an introduction by Jim Shooter and a cover by Dave Cockrum, and I got both!

Great piece, Glen. Thanks for sharing.
