Superman #697 - DC

This issue we finally learn a little bit more about the Legion Espionage Squad that's been sent back to help Mon-El. When the Kryptonian sleeper agent, Car-Vex, blew up the Science Police Headquarters, Control was caught in the blast. Mon-El goes to save her, but he finds her unconscious and half changed. It turns out she's actually Chameleon Boy from the Legion. We've seen in the last few issues how Matter-Eater Lad was actually Mon-El's friend Mitch. And we've seen how Tellus helped save Mon-El from General Lane. Well . . apparently Hover-Cam 2 was actually Quislet, Wilcox is Sensor Girl . . Starman is involved and somehow so is Element Lad. Mon-El sees them, but . . he doesn't know what they're up to. After the attack, General Lane also sees Chameleon Boy and tries to arrest him. But between Cham, Quislet and Starman they evade Lane and his soldiers and make good their escape. Shortly after, Connor show up with a message for Mon-El. First of all, he wants to tell him that his rocket is ready. Secondly . . he wants him to come back to Smallville with him. 'There's people there I want you to talk to.' Apparently the Squad had gathered and is waiting for Mon-El there. This issue is part one of the Espionage Squad story-line. From here it moves over into Adventure Comics #8. James Robinson writes this book, with Benard Chang and Javier Pina doing the art. I thought it was a cool issue, and it was great to see all these Legion characters again. Now . . if we, err . . I mean Mon-el . . if he can find out what they're after. Or why they're keeping an eye on him. But I have a feeling this is just the tip of the iceberg.
