Summary: The Legion Is Back
Comment: What can I say? The original Legion of SuperHeroes is back and what a comeback it was.
Back in 1986, I was excited for the revamp on Superman and at the same time dismayed they got rid of the Superboy character. It really messed Legion history up to the point where it probably never recovered.
I did buy some Legion books in the past 20 years, but it was never the same.
In one storyline, Johns brings back all the thrills and excitement of the original Legion.
It also happens to be one of the better Superman stories I've read in quite awhile.
I don't buy the monthly comics anymore...they're just not worth it. When I do buy a hardcover, it must meet up to the highest of standards and this book does that.

Summary: The first of many great storylines to come
Comment: This hardcover collects issues originally published in Action Comics #858-863. Writer Geoff Johns teams up with artist Gary Frank to bring the best superman story arc in years.
Geoff Johns packs so much into these 6 issues, any normal comic would probably take 10 issues to tell. Johns gives you your money's worth.
Artist Gary Frank gives you a very detailed superman comic, combined with Jon Sibal's smooth inks. I have no problem with superman looking like Christopher Reeve in this book.
If you are not currently reading Action Comics, this your chance to catch up on your Superman, and to pick up the monthly.
As well as Action Comics, you should try reading the monthly Superman, written by James Robinson.

Summary: The long awaited return of the LSH does not disappoint
Comment: The classic pre-Crisis Legion of Super-Heroes comes back with a bang as Superman must travel to the future to keep his friends overcome the xenophobic superheroes that have taken over Earth the only problem, in this time Earth's sun is red taking away Superman's powers. Johns does a surprisingly good job of capturing the feel of the classic Legion stories and even brings in the some lesser known characters such as Legion of Substitute Heroes. A very enjoyable read.
