You brought up many of...Thanks for the great recap!<br />You brought up many of the questions I had while reading this story. What was Darkseid’s motivation here? Why give the kid back? It ultimately seemed like just a really mean prank. He could have let Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad know that their son was one of the Legion’s deadliest villains and left it at that. But he got Saturn Girl to admit there was darkness or something like that? That’s all he needed?<br />If Darkseid can snatch kids, travel through time and transform living being, then there’s no stopping him. Like the Time Trapper, he’s just too powerful and it’s hard to understand what motivates him and why he doesn’t use the full extent of his power to het everything he wants.<br />Also, Ol-Vir didn’t do much. He’s very powerful and very scary. He just sat around hoping bad things would happen. I was pretty glad to see the end to his story.<br />Seeing Curt Swan draw the book was fun and nostalgic. I think this was right around the time he was losing Superman, so nice to see this veteran get some respect.Coolroberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11991432225184340732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6439298599791449790.post-82940645476927872682016-02-12T18:34:11.945-05:002016-02-12T18:34:11.945-05:00This is confusing on so many levels. Why would Ol-...This is confusing on so many levels. Why would Ol-Vir work with Validus, considering that it was Validus who (unwittingly) stopped him from killing Reep back on Takron-Galtos during the Darkness Saga? Now that Validus was turned back to Garridan, where did the Validus that has shown up afterwards come from?<br /><br />On one point, making Validus the offspring of Imra and Garth was clever. The most obvious thing about Validus' appearance is his visible brain surrounded by lightning, and Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad's powers involve the brain and lightning, respectively.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
