Description

It's the Legion of Super-Heroes like you've never seen them before, as the heroes of the 30th-century face one of their boldest and most controversial eras! As DC's 30th century super-team, the Legion of Super-Heroes had always stood as a shining example of futuristic optimism--but that changed in 1989 with a new Legion of Super-Heroes series that brought the timeline forward five years. In this even further future, the United Planets became a darker place, with familiar characters changed and the Earth overtaken by alien invaders--and the team reunited to take on these dangerous new threats. Now this bold and controversial part of DC history is finally collected in an omnibus edition, from the creative team of DC legend Keith Giffen and Tom and Mary Bierbaum! Collects Adventures of Superman 478, Legion of Super-Heroes 1-39, Who's Who 1-11, 13, 14, 16, Timber Wolf 1-5, and Legion of Super- Heroes Annual 1-3. Read more

    • Embrace a Different Take on LOSH
Review Image by Jason L. Nedbalek Jason L. Nedbalek
Review Image by Jason L. Nedbalek Jason L. Nedbalek
I’ve read some reviews saying this book is awful because it’s different. That’s awful logic and is probably the reason why he have so many problems in the real world. When it comes to comic books, it’s good to break the mold and do something different. This book does exactly that. Back in the day, I lived LOSH. I didn’t read it religiously, but I kept up with it though random issues and The Who’s Who in the DC Universe series. I always liked the sci-fi and character diversity, the designs of stuff, and the rich lore developed over the decades. One day, DC decided to throw out the status quo of the series and gave us a new take where we fans were thrown into the middle of a conversation we were prompted to ask questions, piece together things and (god forbid for those haters) had to start using our heads to figure out what was going on. Jumping this series five years away from the end of the previous series (the Baxter series as it’s known) was a great way to shake things up. Now, people seem to not like this series because it isn’t the same as before. Well, that’s not how things grow. As a writer myself, I have to do shakeups from time to time to keep things interesting. Legion of Superheroes was getting boring at the time. It had a squeaky clean image and it was pretty stagnant. Writing was good but nobody outside of the hardcore fans really talked about it. It basically became like Star Trek. It always played things safe and rarely did anything controversial, that is, until the Five Years Later storyline. For me, it worked because there were so many questions that popped into my head wondering who was dead and who was alive. It was cool seeing the bright and shiny future of the previous books being knocked down. It was good seeing that there was still hope. Now, it did ale a while to get to the happy stuff, but looking back on this series, it reminds me now of the rebooted Battlestar Galactica. If you’re new to this team and this series, in particular, then you will probably not know what’s going on. If you’re buying this book at the price it’s going for, then you’re crazy. Don’t buy it if you have no idea what you’re getting yourselves into unless my review piques your interest. At 150 bucks, you’re better off maybe buying the first ten issues in a bargain bin to get a feel for the rest of the book. Things I really liked about the book were too any to list. I do like that they explained away Supergirl and Superboy. They basically took Mon-El and Laurel Gand and used them as the replacements for SG and SB. The Legion suffered from a very convoluted history which the Crisis on Infinite Earths series made worse by not revising the Legion’s origins to where it fit in to post-Crisis continuity. Confused? Then stay away from this book. This series isn’t a reboot as a whole, but it does revise a few things. Superboy was the inspiration for the team’s initial formation, but Crisis eliminated him from continuity. Since (at the time) Superman had never been Superboy, that put a crimp in things. The original team had traveled back on time to recruit Superboy to the team. It turned out (in the Baxter series$ that the team had accidentally traveled back on time to a pocket dimension and recruited an alternate past-Superboy without known it. Before I confuse you anymore, they fix that in this book. Mon-El turns out to be the inspiration for the team and that fixes the whole Superboy thing. Of course, the pocket universe thing never explained how they could have asiprrgirl on the team, so the events on this book’s Issue #5 takes care of that, too. The first 13 issues are great. They revise things, reintroduce the team with their new history, explain who Laurel hand is (Supergirl’s replacement), and there are few funny issues showcasing Tenzil Kem (aka Matter Eater Lad). I thought those issues were great. The rest of the book is good, but it does move slowly here and there. If you lie Blade Runner toe stuff, dark futures where all hope seems lost but isn’t, then you might like this book. I liked it when I read out month to month back in the day. Let’s see if it still hold me internet when yo start reading it soon. ... show more

    • A Lost Masterpiece of the Medium
For me, many of the "grim and gritty" comix following in Watchmen's illustrious wake failed to connect with me. They never were mature, so much as just taking classic characters and thrusting them headlong into ugly situations. Sure, I liked Grant Morrison's "Doom Patrol," which did not start out as "Suggested for Mature Readers," but was in a gray area on a nice paper. Similarly, I dug Grant Morrison's equally incredible "Animal Man." Whereas, "The Shadow" (rebooted) and "Shade The Changing Man," and "The Question" meant zip to me. Some were simply gruesome. "Green Arrow the Longbow Hunters" got old fast - Black Canary's treatment was inexcusable in the wake of Barbara Gordon, which even Moore was underwhelmed by in hindsight as the writer matured. Seeing characters get abused and mistreated, especially the women in a meretricious gaudy style is lame and reaching - even Moore has referred to work from this time as "things I wrote when I was depressed." Alan, I cannot agree more. I found Moore hit his height with his postmodern reinvention of "Supreme," as THE SUPERMAN book most never read, along with all his ABC work, especially TOM STRONG - but this version of THE LEGION is awesome, way too underrated and way to forgotten. I passed it by at the time. I was wrong. I have been enjoying this mightily. It is a tome, received a few days ago - in great condition thanks to some decent care from Amazon delivery - and the interior cover is nice and slick over that bad black cardboard. Heavy, sure? But I lift. :) No gutter loss. This is marvelous work, beautifully rendered - love the opening 9 panel style and with a sense of community coming back to life after a dark time. This is great adventure, genuinely adult, over violent of violence's sake. This really seems a lost Masterpiece of the Medium, and the first time I got into Cosmic Boy and Chameleon Boy - all waking from a future that once seemed idyllic. ... show more
