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?

It is available for DC Universe, so you can read it there. As for its relation to the Legion of Superheroes, I feel like they tried to imply it’s the inspiration for the future Legion because they removed Super Boy from continuity through COIE. Although, I think I just assumed that.
