Superboy and The Legion #238 (April, 1978) was a reprint. For the first time since
the Legion had "returned" to cover-billing, 40 issues before, there was no new
Legion story this month. Instead, Paul Levitz apologized for the deadline crunch as DC re-presented the classic Universo vs Legion story-line from
Adventure Comics 359-360.
The only thing new this month was the cover for the issue. It's a re-creation of
Adventure Comics #360 by Curt Swan and George Klein by Jim Starlin. Fans at the time were surprised to see Starlin working on
the Legion, as he was at this time most famous for working at Marvel. Luckily, there was more Starlin goodness to come....in the future!
So...Who Drew It Better? The Swan-Klein original definitely has its good points, but the atmospheric and enlarged scene by Starlin probably gives him the edge here....What do YOU think?
