Legion of Super-Heroes: The Great Darkness Saga, Deluxe Edition by Keith Giffen, Larry Mahlstedt, Paul Levitz, Pat Broderick

4.0

This edition collects not only the Great Darkness Saga but the issues leading up to that storyline which catches the reader up on some of the storylines surrounding the Legion's usually large cast of characters. A very early 80's vibe with a story that draws in mystery (although less so with this collected edition that has the mystery villain on the cover) and comic lore from the 20th century heroes into an entertaining and epic Legion of Super-Heroes story with its combination of superheroes, sci-fi, and soap opera style drama. The art was a collaborative effort, as many book of the time, with a few storylines with more individual artists styles coming through. Collects LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #284-296 and ANNUAL #1.
