As artist Gary Frank comes on board and a new storyline reintroduces
Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes, Geoff Johns’ run on Action Comics feels like it’s making a whole new start.When it’s released on October 31st, Action Comics #858
will have a brand new ongoing artist, extra pages of story, and the
kick-off to an epic-sounding tale of time travel that promises to build
toward upcoming events in the DC Universe. Titled “Superman and the
Legion of Super-Heroes,” the storyline launched by the oversized issue
will focus on Superman’s relationship with the Legion, an iconic DC
team from the future that has fiercely loyal fans – and is generating a
lot of buzz lately in the DCU.Since Johns was announced as part of the new Action Comics writing team last year along with Superman
movie director Richard Donner, scheduling problems have caused more
than a few bumps in the road for the title. But as the series comes off
a three-issue Bizarro story with art by Eric Powell and heads into this
new story with Gary Frank on art, Action Comics seems to be back on a smoother surface.
As
issue #858 starts the title speeding down this new road, Newsarama
talked to Johns to find out more about this story, hear his thoughts on
what Frank’s art brings to the series, and talk about why the Legion of
Super-Heroes is a team DC readers will want to keep an eye on.
