LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #307 January 1984 I'm continuing my reviews of old Legion comics from the period that I started regularly buying Legion of Super-Heroes. This was also the time I started really collecting comics, so I think it's a great starting point for learning what good comics really are.

Reviews of Old Comics: Watchmen #1
WATCHMEN #1 September 1986 Watchmen is considered to be one of, if not the best comics of all time. However, it gets seen in today's light as a complete story. A new or casual reader of comics could forget very easily that Watchmen was published in twelve, monthly installments. Since I started reviewing old comics, … Continue reading Reviews of Old Comics: Watchmen #1

LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #306 December 1983 One of the best costumes in comics has to be Star Boy of the Legion. You know that I'm not referring to his purple and white Silver Age costume, either. The costume I'm referring to is the star field costume with white gloves and boots. Alex Ross kept it … Continue reading Reviews of Old Comics: Legion of Super-Heroes #306

Reviews of Old Comics: Legion of Super-Heroes #304
LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #304 October 1983 This issue was my first regular issue of the Legion that I bought, so it's stuck with me. It seems really odd since there's very little actual focus on the Legion. SYNOPSIS: Bouncing Boy and Duo Damsel resume their teaching at the Legion Academy, and notify the students that … Continue reading Reviews of Old Comics: Legion of Super-Heroes #304

LEGIONNAIRES #7 October 1993 Legionnaires #7 is a done in one story that takes place right after a six-issue story-line that was very heavy.

Reviews of Old Comics: All-Star Squadron #29
ALL-STAR SQUADRON #29 January 1984 I remember the first three years of All-Star Squadron as being very good, especially when Jerry Ordway was doing the art on it. Jerry Ordway is probably best known for his run on Adventures of Superman and Power of Shazam! but I was first introduced to him in the pages of … Continue reading Reviews of Old Comics: All-Star Squadron #29
