Hello everyone,
If anyone has had a chance to read through Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st Century # 12, I'd love to hear what you think. This was my second script for this title, and any and all feedback is welcome.
I'll start the ball rolling by commenting on the Legion Abstract review here:
Legion Abstract First off, I'm glad you liked the shape transitions from scene to scene. That was actually an idea I came up with a while ago, and was waiting for the right story to use it on. Look for a couple other interesting storytelling techniques in future issues.
Second, just because Earth's government is united, doesn't mean it's not a nation. It's just a much larger nation now.
The cowboy Scavenger thing was probably a result of lack of communication. With a book like this with a rotating cast of artists, oftentimes the writer and penciller don't get a chance to talk to each other directly. As of this writing, I still haven't spoken or emailed Mr. Beavers unfortunately. Although I always prefer when I get the opportunity to speak with the artist before the comic begins production, for one reason or another, sometimes that simply just doesn't happen, and mistakes like this can slip through the cracks.
And lastly, I'm glad the Interlac made its way into this issue. Look to see more of that in the future. As a kid, those hidden Interlac phrases were half the fun of reading Legion comics for me.
Okay, so enough from me. Any other thoughts on the issue?
Thanks guys,
Matthew K. Manning
