The Legion

    (DC, 2001-2004)
™ and ©2001 DC Comics

For at least a decade, the Legion of Super-Heroes has had a tough time succeeding as a series or as a concept. Ever since the Crisis on Infinite Earths required numerous revisions to DC’s future super-heroes, the team has struggled from title to title, trying to find the magic combination of creative team and heroic theme that would finally restore it to the greatness the series enjoyed in Adventure Comics and later, in its own title. The latest incarnation, by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, and Olivier Coipel, the creative team on Legion Lost, picks up where “Lost” left off. The surviving members of the Legion make a dramatic crash-landing in Metropolis, where they are reunited with former comrades. They also undergo culture shock as they face a new world leader who may or may not be bent on killing the Legion once and for good. You have to admire DC for not wanting to let a onetime popular franchise go the way of past super-groups. But with so many failed re-boots of the Legion saturating the market, one wonders if the superheroics of the future have become a thing of the past.
