"Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st Century: Tomorrow's Heroes - Volume 1"
(DC Comics, 2009)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a fun, kid-oriented superhero book, with stylish, manga influenced artwork and clever scripting. This series takes its cues from the WB animated series and has a slightly mish-mashy approach to Legion continuity (for example, Timber Wolf is recruited at the same time as Superboy -- ooops, sorry, here he's called "Superman"; another continuity snafu) The revisionist history won't keep most readers from enjoying this fun, funny series, though. I have been on the hunt for kid-friendly comic books for my very young kid to read, and was not disappointed by this one. It's innocent and simple without being vapid or cloying. I hope DC and other publishers can sustain this kid-friendly tone and bring more titles to the market that are appropriate for younger readers -- 'Cause there's a big potential market out there, just waiting to jump onboard.
