THE DC BOOK (DK)
Unlike the error-riddled DC
ENCYCLOPEDIA, this compendium published by the
same company is an excellent reference book that summarizes
all the various universes and continuities that DC Comics has
featured, from Crises, Convergences, New 52s and Rebirths, right
up to the current Infinite Frontier of all possibilities. As Grant
Morrison states in the foreword, the book sets out to be an indispensable
guide to the "current state of play, mapping and cataloguing
eight decades of worldbuilding into one convenient gazeteer".
There are feature pages on the Legion,
L.E.G.I.O.N., Legion-connected races and allies, the Subs, and
other Legion-related characters. Interestingly, the section on
the Legion uses one of the Perez spreads from LEGION
OF THREE WORLDS without word balloons
revealing
the likes of Kid Quantum, Nightwind, Atmos and Dawnstar in her
alternate costume. This clean version has been seen on social
media in the past, and
on this very site, but this is the first time it's
appeared in print.
