Impossible to understand as a standalone story, it features a sequence about a mass shooting which is in extremely poor taste.
Mangual (l), Anthony Marques, Mike Cotton (e) Paul Levitz (w), Yildiray Cinar (a), Jason Wright (c), Carlos M. Keep that in mind as you buy the comics – they’ll all make sense, but some will be directly following on from the main story whilst others are unconnected origin stories. So if you pick up Poison Ivy or Grodd, it’ll make reference to two of the more immediate moments which occur in Forever Evil #1. This series really was blessed with wonderful art.One thing that you should note is that some of the comics take place as part of Forever Evil – the Batman and Flash comics, it seems – whilst the Green Lantern/Superman issues are more general. There is something so organic and clean about his art, a sort of departure from the angular, stylized look that Jason Pearson brought to the book. Stuart Immonen continues on art and just really brings a beauty to the book. But with that in the rear view mirror, I was glad that the Bierbaums rewarded the long time readers by going back to these stories which had been teased before. This isn't a knock on Terra Mosaic which was a wonderful long-form story looking at the entire Legion landscape. Whether it is Mysa's story, the Legionnaires being kidnapped (last issue), Ivy as a potential Legionnaire, Spider Girl and her mysterious object, or Celeste Rockfish's powers, the time was right to concentrate on the characters that are the foundation of the book. Without looking back, I can rattle off several plots which were lingering.
Writers Tom & Mary Bierbaum seemed to realize that there were plenty of plot seeds that had been sown during the early parts of the title that needed to come to some sort of resolution. She certainly wasn't alone as the focus of this book seemed to drift away from the main Legion characters to the Subs, rebels, and SW6 Legionnaires during the Dominator war. Legion of Super-Heroes #43 was a spotlight issue for the White Witch, a Legionnaire who had been pushed a bit into the background since the beginning of the mega-arc of Terra Mosaic. Mysa was still recovering from the emotional and physical torture she suffered as a wife of Mordru when she left the Legion to follow this phenomenon. Meanwhile, Mysa Nal has been on a vision quest since seeing Amethyst, Princess of the Gemworld in her dreams. Jacques Foccart has rejoined the team and is trying to bring some sense of structure to a team that had barely formed when Terra Mosaic occurred. Recap: In the aftermath of the destruction of Earth, the older Legion is reorganizing and recruiting.
