READ WAR OF THE GODS LEGION SERIES
A new main weapon and new abilities retain the defining spirit of the God of War series while presenting a vision of conflict that forges new ground in the genre. With an over the shoulder camera that brings the player closer to the action than ever before, fights in God of War™ mirror the pantheon of Norse creatures Kratos will face: grand, gritty and grueling. Journey to a dark, elemental world of fearsome creaturesįrom the marble and columns of ornate Olympus to the gritty forests, mountains and caves of pre-Viking Norse lore, this is a distinctly new realm with its own pantheon of creatures, monsters and gods. As mentor and protector to Atreus, a son determined to earn his respect, he is forced to deal with and control the rage that has long defined him while out in a very dangerous world with his son. It is in this harsh, unforgiving world that he must fight to survive… and teach his son to do the same. Nevertheless, the Adult Legion two-parter is one I remember fondly, and still one of my favorite Legion stories.His vengeance against the Gods of Olympus years behind him, Kratos now lives as a man in the realm of Norse Gods and monsters. It would have been nice to have seen how the years had grown and changed them. Brainy is underused as a hostage, Saturn Woman, Lightning Man, Cosmic Man, Polar Man and Element Man (who needs to use his alchemical powers to purge his body of some fat cells!) fight their fights, but with almost no personality. It was in Adventure #310.)īecause the story is so short this time-and because so much of the previous one was devoted to exposition-no one really shines here. (An editorial note incorrectly tells us that Mxy’s brother tried to destroy the Legion in Adventure #130. They’re saved by what Roger Stern rightly calls a Deus Ex Machina ending, as descendants of Mxyzptlk’s and Lex Luthor’s show up to rescue their heroes and join the adult Legion. In final combat, tired from previous battles and confronted now with reality, they lost their battle with the LSV. Of course, the joke was on the Legion-the foes they fought were illusions. Once again, Shooter took a page from the old JSA stories by having the heroes travel the world (although Garth and Imra made it no farther than Metropolis) to confront the villains alone. I also liked the one-on-one confrontations. This villainous pair would never again appear in regular continuity. With so many Legionnaires retired, it was a pretty bleak-looking time, overall. It’s understandable, though, that it never was revisited. It’s a shame they were introduced in a time period that the Legion would not revisit. Their costume designs were striking-his mask was especially mysterious-and their powers a good match for the Legion. I always liked both Beauty Blaze and Echo. Perhaps writer Jim Shooter was tired, having already written 24 pages of an unwanted concept that Weisinger pushed on him?
That would have taken the story longer, as well. After all, they introduce two new villains in this issue-Echo and Beauty Blaze, and they’re missing Sun Emperor and Chameleon Chief. Of course, it might have been equally possible to add additional members to the LSV. The reduction in force was necessary to match the LSH and LSV person for person, so that they could face each other in single combat after the Super-Villains had kidnapped Brainiac 5. Superman leaves right at the beginning, to return to the 20 th Century, and Timber Wolf has just vanished between issues. It is teased at the end of the previous issue’s full-length story, with the reveal that Ferro Man was under the control of the Legion of Super-Villains, but it feels fairly disconnected otherwise.
This 12-page adventure is not so much a continuation of “The Adult Legion” as a sequel.
