The Legion Of Nothing is a Web Serial Novel (and also a book) about the Grand Lake Heroes League of Grand Lake, Michigan, a team of teenagers with superpowers. It is written by author Jim Zoetewey.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })They are the children and grandchildren of the members of the original Grand Lake Heroes League, a group of former World War II soldiers who were part of an elite unit of superpowered soldiers. They came home after the war and continued to use their powers to combat organized crime and other villains, powered and otherwise in the 1950's.The lead character, and the one through whom the story is told is Nick Klein. His grandfather was the Gadgeteer Genius known as The Rocket. Among his inventions, a suit of Powered Armor equipped with numerous weapons and a rocket pack (yes, fans have noted the similarity to Iron Man). Nick isn't really sure he wants to take up the superhero mantle, but a group of his friends decide to revive the League, and Nick in turn dons his grandfather's armor.As a part conventional Super Hero story, part Coming of Age story, Legion is highly effective. Its big selling points are its sense of humor and its very effective pacing. Cliffhanger endings are not uncommon, but this is okay due to the timely update schedule.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Animal-Themed Superbeing: Larry likes this, of the Animal Alias variety. He wears Powered Armour and normally goes by the name Rhino, as his armour's strong and durable, but also goes undercover in green jumping armour... as Frog! Also Night Wolf and Night Cat | |

Badass Crew | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_8879db82 | comment |
Badass Crew: Every super team seems to qualify for this. There is a team of superhero assassins called The Executioner, which managed to murder several superheroes and their families. Evil? For sure. Badass? Most definitely. Subverted with Three, a trio of teenaged supers in California. The group themselves are pretty badass in a fight, but their nominal leader, Alex aka Paladin, seems to excel at getting them in trouble. In particular, one ill-advised prank almost gets them and several other people killed. Brooke (Alex's girlfriend) and Nick stepping up is what keeps them from being obituaries. | |

Backstory | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_e7117c09 | comment |
Back Story: Considering that main characters are the descendants of a famous Superhero group and that many of them have assumed their forebears' identities and abilities (and it some cases their enemies), this is a given. | |
