It's a little too early to judge whether Gage's run on Legacy will be a hit or flop but based off the first 2 issues, I'm really enjoying it. Gage using characters & themes from the 90s is nice. The Xers playing baseball and the return of Exodus; seems...enjoyable.

I'll keep picking it up for the forseeable future.

Lobdell, Harras and Mackie back at DC and now this. Who in today's comics has decided that the 90s were sorely missed?

I've read a lot, of not most, of Gage's other work. I've been a fan for a while,. It's also good, maybe not great, but always good.

I'm looking forward to these when I go back to Montreal.

It's definitely a shift after 5 years of Carey on Legacy. I like the team he has for the book though and I'm definitely sticking around. I do already miss Carey though, but I'm going to give Gage a fair shot. His run on X-Men wasn't bad, but mostly action/movie type. I'm interested to see what he could do more long haul.
