I may not agree with you on all your specific praise points for Paul Levitz, but I do agree he was a helluva writer overall. <br />Thanks for commenting!

And I did like the conclusion to this storyline a few years later, when Saturn Girl stared down Darkseid...! <br /><br />I hadn't thought about the ultrasound, but you're absolutely right, Dr. Gym'll for sure should have been able to tell that they were having twins!

I'm not sure Curt Swan would have been my first choice for this particular story, though; I love the guy, but I don't think he was all that well suited to Giffin's vision of what the 30th century would look like.<br /><br />Also: I think this has just been (or soon will be) reprinted. The solicitation for the newest LSH trade collection, "The Curse," said it would contain Annual #3.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6439298599791449790.post-24922371776723584252014-10-07T13:54:49.777-04:002014-10-07T13:54:49.777-04:00I thought Darkseid needed another good story after...I thought Darkseid needed another good story after Great Darkness, something to live up to the threat he made at the end of that arc. And I think this, a much more subtle evil fits the bill.<br /><br />Besides, Validus' mental lightning makes perfect sense as the son of Imra and Garth.<br /><br />Your biology quibble is valid but I think the bigger question for me was the lack of decent medicine in the 30th century. Are you telling me no one did an ultrasound and saw 2 fetuses? That existed when this story was printed ... let alone 1000 yrs in the future.Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023193805914075078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6439298599791449790.post-68193664865114915152014-10-07T13:06:15.520-04:002014-10-07T13:06:15.520-04:00This is one of my favorite Legion storylines...
