Ohhh! Almost forgot! I almost fell off my chair when I saw that Phlon was one of the worlds being restored. Maybe, just maybe there's hope for a return by Condo after all.

*groan*

I look forward to some intelligent and inventive Legion stories. Let's hope this crap of a storyline gets retconned away soon.

I loved the ending. I wasn't sure how this whole Mon-El story was going to end up but it ended up great and on a strong note in my book.

What about the blonde Daxamite female? Is anyone familiar with her.



It's interesting because originally in the 5YG there were intended to be 3 survivors from the 20th century...one was Valor, one was Jonn Jonzz...and the other? They ended up not going that direction with her...but this development seemed similar to those original plans.

That whole aspect of the L.E.G.I.O.N. was gone by Zero Hour anyway.

I forget how they ended up explaining Phase but it wasn't that she was Tinya sent back in time IIRC.

That was only true during the 5YG and before Zero Hour.


Interstingly enough though...there was a Durlan Green Lantern whose last name was Daggle in the early issues of the current Green Lantern series....


He's a member of the Green Lantern "Corpse", a secret ops division of the Green Lanterns.

So...why did Brainiac 5 go back the the future without the Legionnaires? Did they get back?

Robinson's books are so disjointed and purposeless that it's nauseating.

Two highlights for me:

1) The last page.

2) Legionnaire narration that isn't by Brainiac 5! Woohoo, I knew it could be done!

The preview suggests that they actually come from "New Durla", which isn't the world destroyed by the war.

At this point, I don't even care what the background is, so long as they establish one and we get to have it around for twelve issues or so before the next big yawner of a "worlds' changing company-wide crossover," or whatever.

I dream too much, right?

Dev Em was the third survivor.

There were three Daxamite survivors. The first was Valor, the second Dev-Em, and the third was Laurel before they changed her backstory.

I thought PC Dev-Em was from Titan. Geez the post crisis continuity is insanely confusing.


And it's not like I didn't read the comics. I read them all...every single one of them, I think that is problem.


But yeah...Laurel was supposed to be the third and they changed it.


So EDE...what was your take on the girl in this issue?

Which Laurel?

And I say that Bedard can take care of dotREBELS.
Poof!
He changed Starhaven's history, just like that!
Poof!
He can take care of the Phase issue, if he addresses it at all.
Poof!
He can address the Durlan issue or just let it float off into mostly forgotten history.

I don't like it but, . . .

The Titan thing was only mentioned in WWitLSH. When Dev showed up 5YL, he was "the Mad Daxamite". And, er... I think he was still supposed to have come from the 20th century? I actually don't remember the details of that.

(One can say the post-Crisis Dev was Titanian, and the Glorithverse Dev was a Daxamite, if one want to make that distinction).

Honestly, the Phase issue is pretty easily solved...one can just use the Reboot era origin of Phase and say it involved crossing over from the reboot world to the current Earth. Ditto with the Durlan.


Oh and the Laurel was the 5YG Laurel.

Ok I think I remember that now except I thought it was Ol-Vir....sigh.


And now that we are discussing it...what the hell is Dev-Em in this current continuity?

I know he was some cult leader in 52. He was also some entity in the Phantom Zone.

I don't like Titan being a seeded world. I thought it was pretty clear before it was an Earth colony where telepathy evolved (which I admittedly thought would make an interesting tie-in with modern day Saturnians). But to have them be from a completely different race and transplanted there, in our time no less, seems like a bad idea. Sure the other seeded worlds could grow and expand over 1,00 years, but Titans in our solar system. People are just going to be too tempted to throw it in their Superman/GL/whatever stories and potentially muck it all up.
