With the Legionnaires spread around the galaxy on various business, Lightning Lord gathers the new Legion of Super-Villains. The classic Legion creative team of Paul Levitz, Keith Giffen and Larry Mahlstedt kick off this Baxter-format series with a fine debut.
READWhen aliens from Saturn invade Norway, nurse Jane Foster finds a magical stick that turns her into a female Thor. An uninspired mess of a story from the team of Don Glut, Rick Hoberg and Dave Hunt.
READSuperman and a depowered Wonder Woman are swept into the future as a mechanical being tries to save the past. A dated lead story by the creative team of Denny O'Neil, Dick Dillin and Joe Giella falls short of the gorgeous Neal Adams cover, while a pair of reprints offer little added value.
READKa-Zar vs. Kraven! Dr. Doom vs., well, an assortment of unknown foes and anti-heroes! Nice Bronze Age action by Roy Thomas, with art by two of the best talents from earlier ages: Jack Kirby and Wally Wood.
READThe Teen Titans travel abroad in an effort to save a friend, but square off with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse instead. A typically groovy Titans adventure from the early ’70s, this one from the creative team of Bob Haney, George Tuska and Nick Cardy.
READMister Buda’s mystic talisman sends Captain America on a Bicentennial journey through time to experience America’s history first hand. Jack Kirby serves up an enjoyable treasury-format spectacular to celebrate the United States’ 200th birthday.
READMorgan and Tara learn the secret history of Skartaris – but a forgotten subway might make it all for naught! Another greater-than-the-sum-of-its-parts outing from Warlord Mike Grell.
READMorgan’s legion lays siege to the city of Thera in an effort to earn freedom – and rescue Tara from Deimos. The story is a bit rushed and the art a bit scratchy, but, overall, creator Mike Grell delivers another Warlord winner.
READOn the hunt for a unicorn, Morgan is captured by lizard men who worship a recently arrived “god.” Following a quick origin recap, writer/artist Mike Grell delivers a well-executed, done-in-one tale.
READSeparated from Tara, soon-to-be-Warlord Travis Morgan is captured by slavers and forced to fight in a gladiator arena. Mike Grell’s art outshines his story here, with nice rendering and strong visual storytelling.
