Blackest Night: Adventure Comics

15 December, 2009 (13:45) | Comics | By: Alan

Superboy Prime is a character that’s polarised DC fandom since his re-introduction in Infinite Crisis.  When Legion of 3 Worlds finished, it seemed like a line had been drawn under the character for the time being, but then to everyone’s surprise, he immediately turned up again in the solicits for Adventure Comics #4 and #5 [...]

I must admit.  This final part surprised me.

At long last, the much-delayed Legion of Three Worlds issue 4 is here. As with issue 3, despite the delays its still a good read, and there’s no denying that the detail George Perez is putting into his artwork is worth it. Despite the delays, there’s no hint that they’ve allowed the art [...]
