Ah ... I was upset when they ended v3 and gave us v4 and that Glorith
reboot, and then I was upset again when they ended v4 and gave us the
post-boot - which for a while, really, really made me mad - I actually
stopped reading Legion for three or four years.  The post-boot Legion just
wasn't *my* Legion, the one I grew up with.  And then curiosity overcame my
initial disgust and I came to my senses and bought all the back issues I
missed - and have been enjoying the Legion since.  Sure, it's different,
it's not exactly the same characters, and sometimes the writers seem to be
re-hashing old stuff, but I'll probably always be a Legion reader - unless
they mess up really, really badly.  And they haven't - not yet, so far.  I
actually enjoyed Legion Lost, and the new Legion series hasn't sucked
either - in fact, it's getting better, and it's beginning to feel like I've
got *my* old friends back again - slightly different, but still old friends.
