SPOILERS follow, so beware.


Aside from the "let's dump Supergirl" subplot, which seemed useless except as a device to bring the LSH into direct contact with the LSV, these issues were a step up for me.

Looks like Plant Lad (or KID here) is infiltrating the Legion? Could he be the re-imagined conglomeration of Plant Lad and False-Pretenses Lad?

Evil Polar Boy? Eh. But I won't prejudge. (And is that an evil Dawnstar on the final page of # 24??)

Shadow Kid's appearance is appreciated.

Mon-El? DEFinitely a BIG step in the right direction!

Dream Boy not making me hate him? Surprising. This ISN'T, of course, to say that I like him or anything. I'm a Dream Girl-Drooler through and through.

Evil Saturn Chick's new prominence may force me to actually read the Cham-detective issue, which I only skimmed.

Brainy's (alleged) glimpses of the future were actually amusing. Im betting it's more his intelligence than any inherited future-vision though.

The final page of # 24 actually elicited a "gasp" of surprise from me. It's been a while, for this comic.

Things look like they may be turning around. I'm cautiously optimistic.

I'm with you. I've been buying it mainly out of inertia - after spending so much effort to rebuild my LSH collection, it felt wrong to drop the current book, even while it sucked.

But now it may be shaping up! I'm cautiously optimistic, too.

Dawnstar was always evil, what are you talking about?

The last couple of issues gave me the same feeling. I started getting that Legion tingle. [Smile]

Polar Boy? I agree with MLLASH. But I think a good amount of these "villains" will join the Legion possibly.

Cause what excites me is..."is that Plant Lad?" "Is that Brek Bannin?" "Is that Dawnstar? Wildfire?" etc.
