I actually dropped it last night before I got this issue, but the whole series hasn't done much for me. Don't really care about most of the characters for starters.

I also liked it, In fact I'll definitely pick up the trade paperback of this when it comes out.
Click Here For A SpoilerI liked seeing Gates in action. I'm curious about the general public's reaction to a giant inteligent insect, would an Earth that's already had first contact extra-terrestrial inteligent life be less xenophobic? I'd also like to see Gates reaction to various pest control television commercials IE Black Flag Kills Ants Dead.

Jim... we rarely disagree but this is actually my favourite Legion title of all that are out there at the moment. These aren't my favourite Legionnaires either but I am starting to care more for them because of this series.

While I wouldn't say this issue made lemonade out of the lemon, it did a decent job of clearing the mess out and setting things up for a new direction. I liked seeing Gates back in action, and I'm curious to see where this goes now (which isn't something I've been able to say yet). The upcoming crossover doesn't give me a good feeling though.

I still like the title, but it doesn't seem that there's very much going on. Maybe if the team had a genuine agenda or response to the affects of the hypertaxis virus. I guess they've finally accepted that they're not going home so I'd like to see them actually do something proactive instead of just reacting to their circumstances month after month.
The guest star here was also interesting though if only because of what they might be laying the groundwork for.(honestly, I'd rather a crossover with that title than what they have planned)

I wonder where the Earth organization got a Durlan from and was it a corpse when they got it or did they make it into one?
J'Onn seemed very cold. Is that a 52 'thing' because he never seemed to be that withdrawn in the past boots, did he?
I hope Gates heals and gets bootiful again. I'm not very fond of the chicken look.
So, we're back to a fairly clean slate, which is a little saddening. I was rather looking forward to some of the advertised events, like a possible new relationship in the team and the complications that would cause.
I like the art quite a bit. I'd just lighten the coloring up, like in Secret Origins, so that what is happening is easier to see. And I'd still change Dawnstar's outfit. Oh, and maybe Tellus' hands.
But other than that, I'm a happy camper, pretty much.

He's been booted out of the JL's history and sent over to be the token DCer in the Authority Stormwatch.
Enough to make anyone grumpy.
