I was very much put off by the multiple personalities all being these stupid Syfy channel aliens and I think it would have been vastly more interesting with David doing like he USED to where he has to cajole, bargain or even plead with his personalities to get them to do what he wanted and even then it didn't always work. This to me strikes as "Hey, Legion is super powerful, let's make sure he can be super powerful for our next Marvel event where we need a reality bending mutant!". I love the idea of multiple personalities (like with Typhoid/Bloody Mary and Aurora/Jeanne-Marie) and Legion was one of the few guys to have this problem and deal with it.. well. This is not dealing with it. It's suppressing it and hoping it'll all go away. I don't like at all.Jan Arrahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17358440197846354782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-9570920677664049062012-11-24T21:18:42.890+00:002012-11-24T21:18:42.890+00:00Thanks Fred, and cheers for the link.
