That high rating doesn't mean that disappointment isn't looming in the future. I'm not saying that will happen either, but the possibility exists. I love the canvas this story is laid out on. I just hope no one defaces it by splashing a bucket of harsh paint over it. What the final conclusion will be is what has me excited about this series because I'm uncertain and feeling the tension.

However, if Johns can pull it off, this could turn out to be quite an enjoyable story that functions above the level of a mere nostalgia-fest for Legion fans. Read Full Review
