I gots no problem with the legion when written well, as they were here. I still miss the Giffen years (the 5 years later era) as well as Legion Lost.
Is Johns just doing this series to show us he's thought about/retconned things we've taken for granted? (Krypto to Earth, Heat Vision/Glasses)...maybe every issue will have a previously unforseen twist/angle. I'm digging it, and it's better that anything going on across the street ('cept for maybe what's coming in Invincible Iron Man).
Krypto fighting in vain while dying in "Whatever happened to the man of tomorrow?"
Ted Knight bravely going up in the great glass elevator with the Mist
Dream's coffin-boat floating past a saluting Nada's reincarnation as a chinese child in "the Wake"
most of the last volume of Y
Kitty the Bullet-pilot in Giant-Size Astonishing
Brubaker's sure put a lot into this book, and I love it.........too bad Bucky's the big Skrull reveal.
Wait-isn't he?
Welcome to the age of un-compressed, re-constructed comics...of which we have to ask what the hell happened in that issue.
I like it, but I don't get it. Is that fair? This is like New X-Men was for me...and it eventually kinda made sense, so here's hoping...
