I wanted to write about Legion Lost at least since 2010 and now I'm finally doing it.

Having read your review, I am even more intrigued and I would really like to track down a copy of this collection. It sounds like a really great read and the creative team behind it is incredible. Abnett, Lanning, and Coipel? Outstanding! Great review man.

I've alwa...Thank you for your kind words Rick! <br />I've always been very fond of the Legion, so it's sad to see that it has had a lot of bad runs. <br />And I totally agree with you Abnett and Lanning did for the Legion what Alan Moore did for Swamp Thing. I would also like to review The Legion, there are some really amazing issues there, but it's not a 100% mindblowing like Legion Lost. And yes, by the end, it started to lose some of its charm...

The Legion is/was my first love in comics and, together with the Mike Grell and the first Levitz/Giffen/Lightle eras, the Abnett/Lanning/Coipel era ranks up there with the best. Abnett and Lanning did for the Legion what Alan Moore did for Swamp Thing. Regrettably, things fell apart after Coipel's departure.<br />Cheers.
