This issue just flies by and it's mostly dialog. Not sure if that is good or bad. Regarding the 'wing story, it's OK. I really don't remember how it ends. I feel like Dragonwing is this really tough chick with a heart of gold. Maybe this would have been an Academy story if they hadn't juggled the teams around.<br /><br />My opinion on Chemical Kid is that he wasn't quite ready to be a Legionnaire. Since Paul had to put him into the team, I wonder if he didn't just change things slightly to make a more plausible story, with Jan being his mentor. The art is great but I'm not exactly sure what Dirk was supposed to be doing. Cham really stands out in this series for me. I don't think Yera could ever replace him and his personality. marvelboy74https://www.blogger.com/profile/13962731689660859167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6439298599791449790.post-20973635541879206742017-10-21T14:44:33.591-04:002017-10-21T14:44:33.591-04:00I’ve just had a look back at my review, I liked it...I’ve just had a look back at my review, I liked it quite a bit.

It was cool to see 31st Century China.<br /><br />However, I've never been a fan of acid powers, breath or otherwise. It's the same reason i didn't care for Caress, back in the days of the late Baxter-era Fatal Five.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14267403631542001938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6439298599791449790.post-42785759370431866352017-10-20T12:35:51.644-04:002017-10-20T12:35:51.644-04:00Thanks for the comment.

She has a neat look, unique powers for a hero (I can't think of many good guys with acid breath), a fiesty personality, and having some sort of criminal element in her backstory could make for an interesting plot catalyst. But like you said in your current notes, this whole plot would have been better served being drawn out as a subplot before reaching the foreground. I wonder if the hastier pace was Levitz's choice or a request. I didn't care for this run when it came out, so revisiting it in this manner is helping me see more of its good points but also helping me understand its flaws better.<br /><br />The Dominion stuff feels much more gruesome than Levitz seemed willing to go (at least to my memory), but like you said, that at least worked because it was building on something established & giving it a new layer.Melahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539894845356203447noreply@blogger.com
