Best 100 Comics of 2008, Part III by CBR News Team, Editor
Wed, December 31st, 2008 at 12:17PM PST
This
year was another in a decade brimming with awesome talent and fiercely
entertaining work from all areas of the comic book industry. A small
number of staffers attempting to identify one or two titles as the best
of a stellar year like 2008 would be a disservice to CBR readers, so
this year we polled every single CBR contributor to create our list of the 100 Best Comics of 2008, which we will unveil twenty items at-a-time over the next five days.
If you missed items #100-61, check them out: Part 1, Part II.

FINAL CRISIS: LEGION OF THREE WORLDS #1 (Cover B) (Aug 2008)
45. FINAL CRISIS: LEGION OF 3 WORLDS
Written by Geoff Johns
Illustrated by George Pérez & Scott Koblish
Publisher: DC Comics
One
of the better series spinning out of “Final Crisis,” Pérez’s artwork is
better than ever and Johns’ depiction of Superboy-Prime as an annoying,
self-absorbed super-brat is pitch-perfect. With the teaming up of three
different Legions of Super-Heroes from throughout continuity and the
return of Sodam Yat, the conclusion of this miniseries is something no
fan will want to miss. - Staff Writer Jami Philbreck
I
defy anyone to come up with a better pitch than Superboy-Prime going
one-thousand years into the future to murder every member of all three
Legions of Super-Heroes in the most horribly violent ways imaginable,
as depicted by the preeminent superhero artist of the age, George
Pérez. Talk about "meta." - Staff Writer Andy Khouri

DON'T FEAR THE LEGION Wed, August 20th, 2008 at 2:32PM PST by Timothy Callahan, Staff Writer
DC's version of the Dirty Dozen
In February of 2007, I met with Julian Darius, publisher of my first
book, and threw out some ideas for a follow-up. I suggested a bunch of
things that I thought would make interesting book topics and ended by
saying, "but what I'd really like to do is a book about 'The Legion of
Super-Heroes."
(excerpt)
From the looks of "Final Crisis: The Legion of Three Worlds," Johns
will cherry pick one Legion team from the Reboot era and another from
the Threeboot era and combine them with his own version of the
post-Levitz/Giffen team as seen recently in "Action Comics." If you
like what he does, jump into the Legion with the above list as your
guide. There's plenty of future history to go around. Don't be shy.
There's no reason to fear the Legion.
In addition to writing reviews and columns for COMIC BOOK
RESOURCES, Timothy Callahan is the writer of "Grant Morrison: The Early
Years" and editor of the upcoming "Teenagers from the Future"
anthology. More of his thoughts on comics can be seen every day at the Geniusboy Firemelon blog.

Annotated "Legion of Three Worlds" #1
Tuesday, August 19, 2008
Updates on Tuesday night: added info on Jun and Mara; 30th century Smallville; Superboy Prime's last appearance; the Superman Museum
Starting early, due to the 5-page preview in Newsarama.
Finishing up tomorrow night, after I recover from my brain meltdown (as
predicted by inker Scott Koblish) from reading pages 6-15.
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more,
Or close the wall up with rebooted dead!
... I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot!
Follow your spirit; and upon this charge
Cry 'Long Live the Legion! Annotate on!'
Confessions of a Comic Book Guy—This N’That Column
by Steve Bennett August 20, 2008
Confessions of a Comic Book Guy is a weekly column by retailer Steve Bennett of Super-Fly Comics and Games in Yellow Springs, Ohio.This week, Bennett talks about news from the retail front lines, Arabian comics, and Mr. Freedom.
The cost of gas has
been limiting my trips to Super-Fly Comics to every other week but
there are plenty of good comic shops in the Cincinnati area.Just
three minutes away there’s the small but excellent Comics & Games,
and when I feel like a drive just 20 minutes away in Florence, Kentucky there’s the spacious and well stocked Comic Book World.
Since I’ve been doing
most of my retailing by remote these days Tad and Tony wanted me to
pass along a couple of their observations from the frontlines:
1) Secret Invasion may outsell Final Crisis but for us the Crisis spin-offs do much better than the Invasion ones, even though they cost a dollar more.This is partially due to the fact that it’s easier to give the file customers getting Crisis all the related miniseries, which they generally buy without complaint.But given their sheer volume, you really can’t do that with the Secret Invasion tie-ins…

Koblish; Covers by George Pérez From the moment Kal-El landed on earth
until the end of time, the Time Trapper has sought to erase Superman's
impact on the universe. But the Legion of Super-Heroes have always been
there to stop him. This time, though, even the Legion won't be enough.
The Time Trapper has found the ultimate weapon to carry out his plan –
a twisted mirror image of the boy of steel from a parallel Earth long
dead: Superboy-Prime! Who will answer the Legion's call for help? Find
out here as the Crisis of the 31st century begins!

(MR) - A new Vertigo title is always worth a try for readers who like
mature comic stories. The Vertigo website provides a preview you may
download here.
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #568 - This is the start of the six-part “New Ways to Die” where Norman Osborn’s Thunderbolts come after Spider-Man. Also, ASM #568 sees the return of artist, John Romita Jr.
CAPTAIN AMERICA #41 - You might be tired of me pointing this out, but I have to say it again: Ed Brubaker’s Captain America is the single best ongoing superhero comic currently published. Pick up this or any issue and find out why.
FINAL CRISIS LEGION OF THREE WORLDS #1 - Here is a story that has been bubbling on the backburner of the DC Universe for some time, and now Geoff Johns and George Perez
are going to turn up the heat. Multiple Legions of Superheroes, the
Timetrapper, and Superboy-Prime are in Crisis in the 31st century.

That Watchmen Trailer (and Other Political Superheroes)
by Todd Seavey
(excerpt)
But more on parallel comic book
realities on Wednesday, when three versions of the Legion of
Super-Heroes hit the shelves of your local comic shop simultaneously,
all drawn by George Perez.
Here's part 1 of my "Legion of Three Worlds" pre-annotations. Up
first, the list of Pre-Zero Hour Legionnaires with their creators and
first appearances. Part 2 will be the Post-Zero Hour Legion, and Part 3
will be the current Post-Infinite Crisis Legion. This is so I don't
make the L3W annotations bigger than they are already likely to be.
Anyone appearing who's not on these lists, I'll cover in the body of
the annotations.
Some notes:
For purposes of this list, I'm assuming that the character was
created equally by the writer and penciller (which may not be the case
every time). Exception: Dawnstar was created by Grell and Levitz,
though Grell left the book right before he drew the issue. And I'm not
counting where the character was suggested in a "Bits of Legionnaire
Business" column, unless you think I should.
I'm also assuming that a character's creator remains the same
regardless of which continuity he/she came from - so for example, all
the different Garth Ranzzes from pre-Crisis, post-Zero Hour, and the
current version, were all created by Binder and Plastino.
I'm not a masochist - I'm going to use resources that are already
out there. And for this list, I have to thank Nightcrawler over at
Legion World for putting together a list of "every Legionnaire, ever" since that's what George Perez has said he wanted to do. That's where this list starts.
However, from that list, I'm excluding those pre-ZH instances where
villains joined (like Universo, the LSV, Command Kid, and Dynamo Boy)
or when people were "allowed" to join for some reason (the Murran
spies, Proty and Comet in human form) while keeping in the Honorary
Legionnaires and Reservists.
I'm also excluding the Imaginary Story/Alternate
Universe/Elseworlds/animated versions of the Legion (which means no
Adult Legion joiners).
There's going to be a LOT of people in this series. L3W inker Scott Koblish said
on LegionWorld that "I'm pretty sure George will get 'em all in there.
The first issue has cameos galore, quite a number of them not even
listed in the big list at the head of this thread, and the second issue blows the doors off the first. Hang tight Legion fans!"

SDCC: DC NATION PANEL
July 24, 2008 on 9:06 pm
Dan
Didio started the panel by bringing the panelists onto the stage: Judd
Winick, Keith Giffen, Geoff Johns, Ethan Van Sciver, editor Mike
Carlin, Bob Wayne, Jann Jones, James Robinson, Greg Rucka, Ian Sattler,
Peter Tomasi and Bill Willingham.
The first major announcement came with the introduction of Johns and
Van Sciver, who Didio announced will serve as the creative team on Flash: Rebirth!
“If you liked what we did with Green Lantern: Rebirth you should check out Flash,” said Johns.
Johns also mentioned Legion of 3 Worlds, which features George Perez drawing every Legionnaire in existence and “Superboy Prime saying hello to all of them.”
The past, present and future of one of DC's most beloved superteams...
At a convention known for its fans' devotion and passion, Legion of Superheroes devotees are truly in a league of their own.
Throughout Saturday's "Legion of Superheroes Panel," fans from
across the globe shared their personal connections to the DC superteam
with panelists, Paul Levitz, Mike Grell, Keith Giffen, Colleen Doran,
Geoff Johns, Tom Bierbaum, and Mary Bierbaum, as well as questions
about the varying specifics of a series that has one of the broadest
mythos of any in the comic universe.
Being such a beloved series, its no surprise that many in attendance
were extremely concerned about the future of the series. Johns let out
a minor spoiler, revealing part of Una's character arc: "You turn the
page and she's multiplied into like a hundred of her and she says 'I
don't know how I ever got anything done with just three of me,'" he
added. "She's going to be called 'Duplicate Damsel'."
Continuing, Legion of Three Worlds writer Johns certainly
tried to ease any fears that his run would be lacking anyone's favorite
character, asserting that George Perez, "wants to draw every
Legionnaire ever." Unfortunately, the Superpets will not be making an
appearance.

FINAL CRISIS: LEGION OF THREE WORLDS #3 (Oct 2008)
Last summer, DC Comics writer Geoff Johns surprised readers with a little story he called Sinestro Corps War,
juggling a multitude of villains and ring-wearing heroes in a
space-based epic that became one of DC's most successful events of 2007.
It may be a year later, but it looks like Johns is up to his surprise-pulling tricks again.
This year, Johns will join with artist George Perez to tell another epic story about a team of ring-wearing heroes in Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds, the oversized five-issue mini-series that begins in August.
While we talked to Johns in detail (both here and here) about the characters he's re-introducing in Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds, we're checking back again as the release date draws near and Final Crisis is underway (just as we did Monday with the other Final Crisis mini-series set for August, Final Crisis: Revelations.
And this time, Johns spilled about how this series will reverberate
into the coming year, confirming that not only will questions be
answered about the Legion, their lightning rod and that rascal
Superboy-Prime, but readers of Green Lantern might also want to take
note.
Newsarama: First, Geoff, let's talk about the scope of Legion of 3 Worlds.
We talked a lot in the past about the Legion characters, but will this
comic play into other things going on the in the DC Universe?
Geoff Johns: Legion of 3 Worlds, while an epic on its own, sets up a lot of things for 2009 in the DCU. It’s grown out of my work on Action Comics, Justice Society of America, Green Lantern, The Flash, Teen Titans and Infinite Crisis.
It’s strange, looking at it in the big picture. It’s a culmination in a
sense for me and leads me to the next level and the next books.

BY JENNIFER M. CONTINO
This August Legion of Super-Hero fans are going to have the best of both worlds -- or maybe three worlds! Superstars Geoff Johns and George Perez team to present Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds, a five-part tale that rocks the 31st century to it's core as the Legion of Super-Heroes
are pit against their longtime adversary Time Trapper, and his ultimate
weapon, Superboy-Prime. Perez is known for his painstakingly detailed
artwork that made him a comics household name when he was drawing the New Teen Titans. Perez told THE PULSE he's wanted to work on the Legion of Super-Heroes for years, and is glad to finally have this opportunity.
Prior to this newest crisis threatening the cosmos, Perez teamed with Geoff Johns
for a portion of 2005's Infinite Crisis. But his most famous crisis
work -- up to this point in time, of course, has to be 1985's Crisis on Infinite Earths. Prior to this point, although a big fan of the Legion of Super-Heroes,
Perez had only covered one of DC's oldest superteams a few times in the
'80s, and featured them as guest stars here and there. He never worked
on the ongoing series or a miniseries specifically about this team.
However, the artist is no stranger to having to illustrate a multitude
of characters in the confines of any given story. With his last
assignment, The Brave and the Bold, Perez drew dozens of heroes
and villains each issue. What sets Perez apart from the pack, though,
is that each of his characters looks distinctive and unique -- not just
like talking heads with different colored hair or masks.

LEGION OF THREE WORLDS #1
In this exclusive sneak peek, get your first look at DC's 'Final
Crisis' spinoff event by superstars Geoff Johns and George Perez!
By Kevin Mahadeo and Andy Serwin Posted 05/07/08
The Legion of Super-Heroes stand poised to go prime time in more ways than one.
Superstar creators Geoff Johns (Green Lantern, Justice Society of
America) and George Perez (The Brave and the Bold) team up to present
The Legion of Three Worlds, a five-issue, August-launching event
mini-series spinning out Final Crisis. And as the title implies,
readers get three Legion teams the original squad from Johns' recent
run in Action Comics, the "Zero Hour" era version that went into limbo
and the Mark Waid-Barry Kitson rebellious teen edition, currently in
the hands of writer Jim Shooter for the price of one as presented by
two of the biggest, hottest creators working in comics.
"You can equate it to what we did with [Green Lantern: Rebirth], but
on a bigger scale," explains Johns. "It's involving Superman, the DCU
as a whole and the 31st century. It's the Crisis of the 31st century.
There's a story to tell, but the purpose is to reintroduce the concept
of the Legion, spend some time there, see what they're all about, and
clear up questions people have about them."
The story takes place in the aftermath of Johns' Legion story from
Action Comics, as Earth of the 31st century finds itself caught in the
grip of xenophobia. The United Planets, a conglomeration of worlds
throughout the galaxy, have condemned Earth for its practices the
government was exiling and interring aliens in concentration camps'and
support for the Legion is at an all-time low.Into this atmosphere of
paranoia and mistrust enters long-time Legion villain the Time Trapper,
whose diabolical mechanizations in the form of an unexpected surprise
villain you'll see on the last page of this exclusive preview are
designed to destroy the Legion once and for all.
George Perez and Geoff Johns give the 'Rebirth' treatment to the Legion of Super-Heroes in August
By the Wizard Staff
