As a lo...I have mixed feelings for this Legion run. As a long time Legion fan, I was really excited to see this new incarnation of the team. I love the new look for the team, and I'm resigned to the fact that Bendis is not relying on past stories as he fleshes out the characteristics and personalities and relationships of this team. The art by Sook has been fantastic, and even though he has needed a few fill-in issues, the overall look of the book has remained pretty consistent, which is great.<br /><br />But what eats at me is that we have another Legion run which is not very new reader friendly. Having grown up Jon Kent with the team helps tie in the book to the present DCU, but I wish DC would take the time to build the team from scratch so people can come in and not be confused by the huge cast of characters from the get-go. The slow pacing really doesn't help, because nothing seems to really happen until issue 7 or 8. <br /><br />Here's hoping Bendis picks up the pace soon. I'd hate for the Legion to be the next title canceled at DC.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04449783353273386972noreply@blogger.com
