Correcting misuse of Hope Spot. As it's about the Retroboot incarnation of the Legion of Super-Heroes being restored to continuity, the entry seems a better fit for The Bus Came Back. For it to be Hope Spot, it would've hinted at the Retroboot Legion making a comeback, only to then abruptly kill them off.
