LEAST LIKED issues of the current Legion series. 5 choices
(Remember, the higher the percentage, the less liked the issue among members)
- A clearly disliked issue by over 3 in 5 votes . It may be because of Cub and also the preboot version of Timber Wolf, as “his” issues (15 & 16) don’t rank well in these two polls, and both characters got significant negative responses in separate questions in other Polls.
2nd - 38% (8) Issue 15 - Timber Wolf’s “semi-first” day as Legionnaire
- See above. Maybe he should have slept in.
3rd - 33% (7) - Issue 5 - Kwai galaxy, Credo - An apparently unwelcome break in the popular Ra’s story - Issue 16 - Timber Wolf battles Fatal Five - the remaining Timber Wolf issue. Three of the four least liked issues, prominently feature Timber Wolf. Perhaps a hasty revamp is in order?
5th - 29% (6) Issue 6 - Zoe gets Terraformed, rooftop confrontation with Ra’s - The Terraformed Zoe beat out the snake as least liked new postboot Legionnaire, and it appear her first appearance is not that well-liked either. It only received 1 vote in Favorite Issues Poll.
6th - 24% (5) Picked by 1 in 4 members - Issue 12 - Battle with JLA constructs, Brainiac 5 & Computo argue - Issue 14 - Legion infiltrates Metropolis, Sharn Nux attacks Computo - Coipel’s last issue. - Issue 17 - Xanthu clean-up, Ra’s & M’onel talk, Ra’s escapes - Issue 18 - The hunt for Ra’s on Legion World

14% (3) Issue 13 - Warworld used against Robotica, Brainiac 5 agrees to help Computo
10% (2) - Issue 2 - Oversight Watch battle, the tunnel chase - Issue 10 - Character interludes, Robotica surprise invasion of Earth - Issue 11 - UP Fleet space battle with Robotica, Computo revealed - Issue 21 - Darkseid attacks, Sensor & Shikari escape - The current issue

It was hard for me to pick five in either category. I ended up choosing only four each. I think, for the most part, the current run just hasn't provoked a strong reaction in me either way.
Interestingly, one of my four favorites was one that has proved unpopular: The Cub & Brin adventure. I thought it was a hoot.
