I buy LSH and Legion Lost because I like the Legion but I find these books boring to read. There are rare glimmers of hope but overall I don't get excited about having this book in my hands.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-81717250116997974262012-11-27T18:53:43.795-05:002012-11-27T18:53:43.795-05:00Regrettably though you can sum up everything that&...<i> Regrettably though you can sum up everything that's wrong about Legion of Super-Heroes by reading this issue and last - there is absolutely nothing here to see here.

The lack of ideas from him is now blatantly clear for all to see and I am absolutely amazed this is being allowed to continue. <br />I really do feel it was a great mistake not to take the opportunity last September to reset the book with its issue #1, fresh start with a full strength and active roll call for the group - bring in all the old faces and a few new as well. Look to the future instead of mulling over the past as is happening right now in the book. <br /><br />We know the Legion always gets shafted in DCs houseclearing excercises and I can see the the <b>Legion Lost</b> book may have damaged LSH's integrity as well by taking away key players, but why not then have a major recruitment drive? The team as it stands right now is very reminiscent of the Bierbaum Legion once Giffen had left, there's still decent characterisation but there's an immense fatigue to it all as well. As if it was a struggle to come up with ideas and a direction... <br /><br />The art isn't all that bad from Kolins, I accept this is a fill in stint from him and his current modified stlye is not as good as his old style in my opinion, But it's perfectly servicable.<br />Regrettably though you can sum up everything that's wrong about Legion of Super-Heroes by reading this issue and last - there is absolutely nothing here to see here.
