Artwork
- The art on Young Legacy's original incapacitated side is an homage to the famous picture of Superman holding a dead Supergirl on the cover of Crisis on Infinite Earths #7.
Confirmed
For more information, see Legacy
- Young Legacy's death at the Hands of Baron Blade sparks the alternate timeline that causes Iron Legacy to show up in Shattered Timelines.
- The fight against Iron Legacy, involving both Legacy and Young Legacy from an alternate timeline, altered their timeline, causing neither to be at the fight when Baron Blade set his trap; both survive into the future, with Young Legacy taking on the role of Beacon in the Tactics timeline.
- Strictly speaking, she is only known as "Beacon" in the Tactics timeline.[1]
- Like her father, she's an only child[2]
To Other Works
- Beacon is a clear reference to DC's Supergirl, the young female Kryptonian who shares Superman's name and legacy.

Many years ago, in the world of Sentinel Comics, there was a rift in the timelines in an arc that came to be known as the Shattered Timelines. During this time - or times, rather - the Iron Legacy event occurred, leaving a hefty mark on the primary timeline of Sentinel Comics. However, not all of the results of that event were negative...
When Iron Legacy appeared, many heroes assembled to fight him, including Legacy AND his daughter, Pauline Felicia Parsons, who would someday become Legacy in her own right. In the course of that battle, both father and daughter were gravely injured, which resulted in them not being able to respond weeks later when word came that Baron Blade was planning some dastardly plot involving the Wagner Mars Base. Instead other heroes confronted the mad Baron and stopped his plot, which turned out to be an elaborate trap for the Parsons - surely, one of them would have fallen in that conflict. However, because of this temporal interruption, neither did.
Now, years later, Paul Parsons still leads the Freedom Five as Legacy, but his daughter is a formidable hero herself. Pauline Felicia Parsons knows that someday, she will take up the mantle of Legacy, but for now, she will take her own name: Beacon!
Beacon often fights alongside the Freedom Five, as well as many other heroes. More brash than her father, she relies on her nigh-invulnerability to get up close to her foes and unleash devastating blasts of energy from her eyes.
Felicia Parsons is the culmination of the entire line of Legacies, with the advantage of both additional powers and expert tutelage from her father. Villains should beware when Beacon is on patrol!
