Legion Lost #1 - Eric's Review

With all the drastic changes taking place in the DC Universe, it seems that a bone or two had to be thrown to the longtime readers, some of whom have been less than positive about this New 52. The Legion of Superheroes -- a team of teenage heroes from the 31st century -- remain untouched, or so this reviewer, who has never read the  LoSH, assumes. This book is one of the few that was clearly not intended for new readers, which makes an objective review difficult. A group of heroes, ostensibly members of the Legion, have traveled back in time to stop someone named Alastor, who may or may not have unleashed a pathogen on the hapless 21st century. These characters and their powers, Alastor and the destructive potential of the disease he carries; none of it is explained well, but one supposes that a reader familiar with the Legion would already have the answers.

The art is pretty, though.
