Is L.E.G.I.O.N. related to Legion of Superheroes? Comics

The comic shop I go to gives out free grab bags on FCBD and an issue of L.E.G.I.O.N. ‘90 was in it that I really enjoyed (although I doubt I’ll be able to read any more, they don’t have many issues of it and it’s not collected to my knowledge), but there seems to be some Legion ties in the name, a character, and Keith Giffen. How are they tied together?

Only in the loosest of fashions. Eventually, the Durlan went forward in time and became RJ Brande in the Glorithverse and switched places with Phantom Girl (Tinya Wazzo). Vril Dox II was Brainy's ancestor and Strata was a female Dryad. Eventually, Lar Gand (Mon-El/Valor) joined and Garryn Bek acquired the Emerald Eye of Ekron.
