I won’t lie: I really like the threeboot Legion. There’s no Legion-on-Legion snark in this issue so instead I’ll give some reasons why I think this version of the Legion rocks.
When I hear the word ‘Legion’ I think BIG and this version delivers. Although the core group is probably the same size as previous versions the ‘extended Legion’ is what makes this reboot special. An army of like-minded kids who look up to the Legion, who are standing up for what they think is right. A Legion we could all belong to, super-powers or not.
Another reason I like this Legion is because they act like kids. They curse, they make snarky (non-hurtful) comments to each other. They do act like jerks, but mostly towards the adults (who deserve it, damn it). I’m not saying there isn’t going to be some classic jerky-ness in this version but I think it’s outweighed by the non-jerky-ness.
I especially like the cursing and back talking to the adults. 
This Legion, or at least the first issue, is a ‘thank you’ to the fans. That’s why I like it so much.
