History

(Final Night #1, 3) - Superman organized a summit of superheroes, including Spark and the LSH, to listen to an alien named Dusk. She'd seen the Sun-Eater snuff out the sun of countless planets, and she was there to warn the heroes that the Sun-Eater was headed towards Earth. Spark and a team of heroes formed a ground crew to deal with the panic that the Sun-Eater's approach would cause. The Eater engulfed the sun, causing Earth to freeze and a wave of worldwide chaos. Spark helped out at Warriors, which Guy Gardner had converted into a hospital and command center. She gave her flight ring to Ferro, a new hero she was extremely impressed with.

(Impulse #21) - The timelost Spark and the LSH asked Impulse if he could help them return to the 30th Century. They went to the Flash Museum to use the Cosmic Treadmill, but Impulse didn't know how to properly utilize it and just sent himself and various Legionnaires forwards and backward in time 10 minutes. He then accidentally brought back raptors from the Jurassic era. He managed to send them back to the past, but the LSH said they definitely didn't need his help.

(Legion #3) - The reformed Legion visited Ayla on Winath and broke the news of her brother's death. Spark, Wildfire, Invisible Kid and Saturn Girl traveled to the remains of Progenitor's Rosette to see if they could find Livewire's body. They saw a flash of lightning.
