Over the past decade my love of the Legion of Super-Heroes has just kept growing. Especially now since both LSH titles have been far superior to the JL titles in the New52.

While I have sporadic early issues such as The Great Darkness Saga, my collection proper begins with the Abnett/Lanning run to the current.

My main question is when did Paul Levitz first start? I thought he came on board with#284, but that appears not to be the case. Do I go as far back as #259 when the title name switches to just The LSH from Superboy and The LSH?

Special thanks in advance.

He wrote stories under the previous title name, "Superboy and the Legion of super-Heroes," as of issue #225, but he was not the permanent writer until Great Darkness Saga. The likes of Roy Thomas, Len Wein, and Gerry Conway did fill-in issues/arcs in the meantime. Levitz wrote 3 out of every 4 stories in-between issues 225 and 258.

Awesome! Thanks! I work at a comic shop one day a week, and due to the recession the last few years, many fans turned in their complete runs of LSH from #259 onward. Since I've completed most of the rest of my comics collection to where I want it to be, I figured to start back collecting Legion in earnest.
