Supergirl (vol.IV) #52

Supergirl (vol.IV) #52

Coi petti ancora gonfi di entusiasmo per le ultime e incoraggianti notizie, i fan della Legione tornano già a leccarsi i baffi.
L’ultima infornata di solicitations DC è eccezionalmente densa di novità per i seguaci di Saturn Girl e soci (la lista completa è leggibile a questo link): come a segnare il conto alla rovescia verso il “volume VI” di Levitz e Cinar, ad aprile ci attende, infatti, la seconda tranche di “Brainiac and the Legion of Super-Heroes”, capitolo conclusivo della lunga saga legionaria iniziata nel 2006 con la “Lightning Saga”.
Ecco l’elenco ordinato dei capitoli del crossover, che prosegue dalla checklist del mese di marzo:

– Adventure Comics (vol. III) #8: prologo (3 marzo 2010)
– Superman: Last Stand of New Krypton #1 (di 3): prima parte (10 marzo 2010)
– Supergirl (vol. IV) #51: seconda parte (17 marzo 2010)
– Superman #698: terza parte (24 marzo 2010)
– Adventure Comics (vol. III) #9: quarta parte (31 marzo 2010)
– Superman: Last Stand of New Krypton #2 (di 3): quinta parte (7 aprile 2010), di Robinson, Gates e Woods
– Adventure Comics (vol. III) #10: sesta parte (14 aprile 2010), di Robinson, Gates, Trautmann, López, Henry e Gallo
– Supergirl (vol. IV) #52: settima parte (21 aprile 2010), di Gates e Igle
– Superman #699: ottava parte (28 marzo 2010), di Robinson e Chang
– Superman: Last Stand of New Krypton #3 (di 3): nona e ultima parte (28 marzo 2010) di Robinson, Gates e Woods

Per i meno pretenziosi, il menu offre anche un piatto mediocre come R.E.B.E.L.S. (vol. II), di Bedard e St. Aubin. La copertina del #15 promette un ulteriore nuovo ingresso nel team protagonista, guidato dal coluano Vril Dox II: in effetti, considerato l’alto grado di approfondimento finora garantito dall’autore ai singoli personaggi, l’idea di aggiungere altra carne al fuoco pare proprio l’ideale. Yawn.
Inoltre, altre uscite legate tangenzialmente alla Legione saranno segnalate in un immnente articolo integrativo: stay tuned!
Da segnalare, infine, l’annuncio della versione in brossura di un paio di volumi usciti esattamente un anno prima in edizione cartonata: si tratta di Legion of Super-Heroes: Enemy Manifest TP, di Shooter, Manapul e AA. VV, e Superman: New Krypton vol. 1 TP, di AA. VV.
