New page

The '''Two and a Half Month Gap''' took place over the summer of 1992.

Back in the day, before [[Internet]] service was widespread, most people on [[Usenet]] got their access through university connections. Thus, the ''[[Cosmic Plot Device Caper]]'' was cut off by the end of the school year, as most of those who had participated left for the summer. Two and a half months later, [[Scavenger]] posted the [[Call to Arms]], bringing the LNH back together.

In-continuity, this is the time period during which [[Beige Noon]] took place, altering continuity and serving as a symbolic division between the pre-Gap LNH and the post-Gap LNH.

Out of continuity, it was a parody of the Five-Year Gap from the dark-n-gritty dystopian sci-fi relaunch of the ''Legion of Super-Heroes'', done by Keith Giffen and Tom & Mary Birnbaum in the early 90s. (This also helped inspired the post-''[[LNH20 Comics Presents]]'' #21 status quo of [[LNH20]].)
