I was listening to an older episode of Word Balloon last week and the conversation briefly turned to Legends, the 1986 post-Crisis mini-series that featured Darkseid and his minions versus the best and brightest of the DCU.
Perhaps the book is most famous for leading into The Justice League by writers Keith Giffen and J.M. DeMatteis with artist Kevin Maguire. Legends, however, was written by Len Wein and John Ostrander with art by the recently converted John Byrne, who famously rebooted Superman that same year.
A couple of things stuck out in my memory about this book. First, was that it didn’t have the zing I expected when I first read it. It was until after I purchased it that I realized that Byrne didn’t author the book—which at that point in my comic book reading hadn’t happened (that I could recall).
