So, Legion Of Superheroes is cancelled in August. Which means it won’t even make it to Villain’s Month in September. Here’s the solicit in question;
LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #23
Written by PAUL LEVITZ
Art and cover by KEVIN MAGUIRE
On sale AUGUST 21 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US • RATED T • FINAL ISSUE
In this final issue, the Legion picks itself up after the brutal attack from the Fatal Five nearly destroyed civilization across the cosmos! While some Legionaires bury their dead, others fight for the future of the Legion against a society that now doesn’t trust them. Don’t miss surprises galore in this landmark issue drawn by Kevin Maguire as the true nature of the Legion is questioned—and the future of the DCU is changed in a way you’ll never expect!
We reported Keith Giffen’s decision to walk off the book two issues into what was to have been an extended run. Did he know something? Well, his old Justice League International compatriot Kevin Maguire is back to draw the final issue. He’s not the only one knocking around.
Woke to learn my new project is officially a “go”. VERY, VERY excited about it. Can’t wait for it to be announced so I can talk about it.

@ronmarz @maguirekevin He is, isn’t he?

Finally, in the New 52, could it be? A new DeMatteis/Giffen project? And Kevin Maguire is around too. Is this just too much to hope for?
Say, it couldn’t be the previously rumoured Justice Legion could it?
