For some reason, the other topic is gone. So time to start over.
The first news is the brand new news that has been reported; the first promotional image for season 2:
According to Comics Continuum, the Superman there is one of the two Supermen appearing on the show. He is a clone from the 41st Century that is more into fighting than heroism.
Stay tuned!
You don't get it, boy... this isn't a mudhole... it's an operating table.
(crack!)
And I'm the surgeon.

RE: Legion of Superheroes Season 2 News -

Legion of Super Heroes (11:00 a.m.)
The second season of “Legion of Super Heroes" finds the group fulfilling their collective destiny, each member elevating his skills to new levels … just in time to face even greater challenges. A incomprehensibly undefeatable nemesis – Imperiex, the destroyer of galaxies from the rich annals of DC Comics – puts the Legion into action alongside new team members. Superman returns from the 21st century with greater development of both his physical prowess and far better utilization of his powers to help the Legion toward victory in the 31st century and beyond. Moreover, the Legion finds a surprising, new ally from across the space-time continuum – a 41st century Superman, cloned from the original Superman with alien DNA added to the mix for new, enhanced powers – to assist in its efforts to rid the universe of this powerful foe. Along the way, the LOSH – including new members like Chameleon Boy – provides the perfect complement of heroics and comedy to the efforts of the Supermans. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation. The series is rated TV-Y7 FV (fantasy violence).
You can see all the pictures inclucing some new ones here:
"Legion of Super Heroes" premieres September 22 at 11:00 a.m. ET/PT as part Of the Kids' WB! Lineup on The CW Network with a two-part episode entitled "The Man from the Edge of Tomorrow" (the finale airs Sept. 29). In the episode, we learn that in the 41st century, the universe will be terrorized by a warrior named Imperiex. The only person standing in the way of his plans for domination is a clone of the original Superman. But unable to defeat Imperiex and his vast army alone, the clone travels to the 31st century to recruit history¹s greatest super hero team, the Legion, to help fight this threat.
LEGION OF SUPER HEROES: 2007-2008
Wizard Magazine, the industry standard for measuring the fanboy¹s pulse, hailed Legion of Super Heroes as the 2006-2007 season¹s ³Best Animated Series.² So how do you go higher when you¹re already at the top?
You add more of everything. You go big and then go bigger.
You take ³super² and double it.
Start with a second Superman, add an incomprehensibly undefeatable nemesis, then toss in endearing new cast members in over-the-top adventures and you have the recipe for the highly-anticipated second season of Legion of Super Heroes.
The new campaign of LOSH finds the group fulfilling their collective
destiny, each member elevating his skills to new levels Š just in time to face even greater challenges. In an ironic turn of déjà vu, Future Superman (a clone who goes by the name "Kell-El") arrives to recruit the Legion to travel to the 41st century to help defeat Imperiex, a destroyer of galaxies from the rich annals of DC Comics. But Imperiex turns the tables on the gang, traveling back to the 31st century to crush the Legion¹s headquarters and free all of the LOSH¹s deadliest enemies, thus creating an army of super villains.
While occasionally criss-crossing centuries, the focal point of LOSH Season 2 is on the two Supermans and their attempts to end the reign of terror brought on by Imperiex. As opposed to his formative days during the first season, Superman has returned from the 21st century far better developed with greater physical prowess and utilization of his powers. Kell-El is actually a clone of Superman, however Kell-El has been created using Superman¹s DNA along with alien DNA thus forming a new Superman with exciting new powers and a different form of weakness.
Along the way, the LOSH provides the perfect complement of heroics and
comedy to the efforts of the Supermans. The Legion members¹ journey include the discovery of old and lost relatives with imperiled results. The LOSH even expands (and sometimes contracts) during the new season, most notably with the addition of an intriguing new Legion member, Chameleon Boy.
Renowned voice actor Yuri Lowenthal draws double duty in LOSH Season 2 as the voice of both Classic and Future Superman. His villainous foil,
Imperiex, is blessed with the vocal stylings of sci-fi veteran Phil Morris, most recently seen as Martian Manhunter on ³Smallville.² An admitted comic book fanatic, Morris¹ credits range from a notable turn on ³Seinfeld² and frequent guest roles across primetime television (³CSI: Miami,² ³NCIS,² ³Will & Grace,² ³JAG²) to constant voice work in feature film and television animation. Alex Polinsky (³Charles in Charge²) continues to expand his career into animation voiceovers as the newest member of LOSH, Chameleon Boy.
Two Supermans. One incredible villain. All new adventures for a popular band of heroes. The ³best² is getting better.
