Legion continues to be fine. Levitz is preaching to his choir though; he’s got cute little jokes between boy and girl Legionnaires I’m sure he was doing back in the eighties. He’s having fun and he clearly likes the characters.
It makes the comic entertaining to read, but not necessarily entertaining overall. Levitz makes some odd narrative choices, like treating Mon-El as a mute. Everyone talks about him, like he’s the comic’s de facto star, which I’d never thought was the case. Levitz exaggerates it.
Maybe for the new readers? He’s making a central figure, one easy to identify.
The more impressive thing this issue has to be Portela. He draws the action scenes here a lot better than last time. He still has problems with the comic’s visual pacing overall though.
Once again, I find myself without a lot to say about Legion.
It is what it is.
