I am really into animated shows about superheroes. Normally, I would agree with those who are saying that a series should be released on DVD in full seasons or, at least, in larger volumes. In this case, however, I can see the value of releasing only a few episodes at a time. I had never seen this show when it was originally aired. I might be interested in buying the entire series but I have to see what the show is about, first, before spending all that money. These DVDs are a great way to "sample" the product before taking the plunge. That's why I bought this DVD.
For starters, the animations are good. They are not always realistic looking but they're pleasant to watch. I found the character designs a little odd in that their legs all have really big calves. It's not a big deal but it was a little distracting. I kept trying to figure out if that was supposed to be the cut of their pants or boots or if that's just how their legs were shaped. Anyway, the fight scenes were fun to watch and the city (New Metropolis, I think it was called) looks very interesting.
I've never been a big Superman fan. It's not that I dislike him, I've just never found him that interesting. Watching him, as a young man, visiting the future and learning to use his powers did make him a more sympathetic character, to me. I always enjoy learning about new heroes and seeing characters like Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, Brainiac 5, Phantom Girl, Triplicate Girl, Bouncing Boy, and Timberwolf was lots of fun.
I was surprised to find a special features option on this DVD. There is a featurette where the series creators discuss the making of this series. There's nothing spectacular about it but it's nice to have.
It's a little early for me to tell but it looks like a decent series. I'll have to watch a few more episodes before I say for sure.

Okay, I finally took the plunge and bought this DVD. I have been holding out, like almost everyone else on these, because it angers me that Time Warner hasn't released them as season sets, and is putting them out in this four episode format to make a few extra bucks. Well, then I started thinking, "what if they just go off the lousy sales for these four episode disks and decide that this series wasn't well liked enough to produce as season sets"! That would not be good! So, I bit the bullet and bought all three discs, which make up the complete season one. Hey, I did it for all of us, so that MAYBE WB will cough out the season set editions. I figure it's like washing my car. Right after I do wash it, it rains. So, maybe the same thing will happen now that I've bought their four episode discs. Maybe NOW they'll put the season sets out!!! Basically, I took one for the team...you can thank me when the season sets come out...LOL.
I rate the show as an absolute five stars :)), and the four episode format as a negative five stars. :(

Legion of Super Heroes is a great show. Basically in the 31st century there is a team of super heroes which join to fight crime all over the galaxy, and dew to time travel Superman is there to join them. So it is kind of like Justice League mixed with Star Treck.
But even though this is a great show don't buy this! You see what the DVD people are doing is reasing volumes of 4 episodes. Then they will release seasons. These will be a few dollars more expensive, but will have 13 episodes instead of 4. This is a way better deal. Then they will stop making volumes and only make seasons. So far they have released 2 volumes if they stop now you could have to rebuy 8 episodes to get all of season 1, and if they release 3 volumes you will have all but a 1 epsoad of season 1 and rebuy 12. They did the similar things for Teen Titans, The Batman, and even Batman Beyond, and expected us not to notice! So the only reason you should buy this is if you are inpatient and don't mind paying a lot.
However this show is good, and when they release complete seasons I encourage you to buy them, but for now wait.
