I just like that the people around the table, presumably all of whom have their own terrifying super-powers, have expressions of "Oh poo poo! wow! He's KILLING that coffee table!" and not confused "...no? What? Why?" expressions.

They were poo poo, I've seen pictures of one. Basically just a cardboard box that would quickly break. About every one of these old school ads in comics was a scam of some sort.

I got some army battle play set back in the early 80s from an ad in a comic like that. It said it had like 500 pieces and a huge battlefield to play on.

The pieces ended up being tiny, just the worst little plastic bits of nothing, and the battlefield was printed on an incredibly thin plastic sheet, like a bib at a seafood restaurant. It was almost impossible to lay lithe whole thing out and not have the pieces fall over.

Had to Google that. First appearance in 1989? That doesn't seem right. Saturn Girl, Lightning Lad, and Cosmic Boy all have their older "Golden Age" uniforms on. I would have guessed the panel was from Adventure Comics in the 60s or similar.

E: maybe not "perfect" but made me laugh:

It's from Secret Origins: the secret origin of the Legion Clubhouse

Fortress Lad (one of the Fortress People from the planet Fwang) sacrificed himself to protect the Legion founders from Mnemonic Kid. She mindwiped them as revenge for rejecting her, and was going to shoot them, but Fortress Lad turned himself into a fortress to protect them. She mindwiped him, too, so much that it never wore off and he never turned back into a person, even after she was killed by her own death ray ricocheting off his polished hull.

The only thing the Legion founders remembered about the spaceship-like fortress was that they liked it and it had protected them.

Curt Swan came out of retirement so that it'd feel 'old-school'.

That's awesome, thanks for sharing! The best thing about the LSH was all the goofy super powers and aliens. Need a weird super power? Just make up a whole planet full of people with it!

Pretty sure I have an issue that has the floor plan for the old "Upside down Rocket Ship Clubhouse" but I never knew it was Fortress Lad from Fwang!

Fwang is subject to constant meteoric bombardment, which is why the young males gain the power, at puberty, to temporarily transform into large metallic fortresses in which the others can take shelter.

"Fwang" is the sound of a meteorite hitting a large metallic fortress.

FWANNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG

It wasn't, until 1989.

The original origin was going to be that it was the spaceship in which baby Kal-El came to Earth, but at that time, DC editorial was not enthused with the notion of connections between freshly-post-Crisis Superman and the LSH, so the writers came up with something much, much wackier.

All these years, the LSH were holding meetings inside a corpse.
