Ahh, Justice League. I have not liked the entire run of Rebirth JL up to this point. Though this volume did nothing to change my mind, it was slightly better than the previous couple of volumes, which isn't saying much. This time around, the Justice League member's kids from the future come with a message, a mission, and a surprise. The future (present day to the kids) is a hot mess, and most of the JL members are dead. One of the current JL members is to blame, but which one? This story arc has...

Practically incomprehensible. It feels like there are half a dozen missing crossovers that the editors couldn't be bothered to sum up between chapters. Plus all of the art is off, giving every character broad, negroid features that make them unrecognizable without costume clues.

2.5 stars. This has been one cruddy Justice League run, and this volume doesn't help much. The action is good but there are so many plots holes that I just couldn't enjoy the story. For example (SPOILERS AHEAD):A Green Lantern gets their power from wearing a ring. So how does a green lantern having kids give those kids a biological power of all lantern colors? It doesn't make any sense. That's like me conceiving a child while wearing a gun and the child being born with rocket launcher hands. Thi...

Much cleaner story than previous volumes. Still not great but decent.

3.5 Stars.The premise of this Volume is simple. In the future, a "Darkness" has infected the world and destroyed much, including the Justice League. The children of the Justice League (who obviously have powers) come back in time to try to prevent that from happening. They meet up with their parents and it goes from there. The "Justice Legacy" is:1) Cruise (Nora Allen) - speedster daughter of Barry Allen and Jessica Cruz2 & 3) Lanterns (Jason and Jenny Allen) - twin children of Barry and Jessica...

The Justice League's children arrive from the future in order to stop "the darkness" from corrupting the world into a bleak and desolate no mans land.Bryan Hitch has been the main writer of the series, and he has laid down seeds in previous volumes that results in this storyline. Turns out the "Kindred" from the first volume play a big part in this one, but also, we have a new villain called "The Sovereign" and Old Man Aquaman as antagonists in this one. I liked this story - I think it has a goo...

I liked the future JL kids in the plot, but either something about the artwork or the plot/pacing left me mixed. (e-galley from NetGalley)

Holy shit I actually liked a Bryan Hitch Justice League. This is...a strange day indeed. Justice League Legacy is all about the future grandkids of our favorite justice league members. So when Wonder Woman, Flash's kids, Jessica's and more! It's a family reunion with the younger versions of their parents. But the "Darkness" is coming to kill them all! Because we couldn't just focus on character development we have to have a big threat. This is the Justice League after all! Good: The art is halfw...

'Justice League, Vol. 5: Legacy' by Bryan Hitch collects Justice League #26-31 and has an interesting premise. It just doesn't hold up to much scrutiny. I still liked it though.The children of the Justice League come from the future to try to save their present. Some are a mishmash of powers because of dual parenting, but they all have similar powers to the current Justice League. There is confusion on the Justice League's part and a bit of anger to be dealt with on the kid's part before the onc...

The children of the JL vs Sovereign.Pro: The character development, characterization. These new heroes and villains hit the mark for me. Usually I hate when a hero is now the misguided villain but here I just went with it. Con: ….. idk.. comic book tropes.

So this is what all the stupid stuff with the Kindred has led to? Black lightning that turns you evil? Like that hasn't been done a gazillion times. The overall story isn't bad, it just doesn't hold up to much scrutiny. The beginning of the book was very confusing. It's set in the future with what is obviously supposed to be the JL's children. But they keep referring to each other by first name, so it's very difficult to tell who each character is talking to. Of course when the JL appears, all t...

It was kinda fun seeing the future kids of the Justice League interacting with their parents-from-the-past..... but honestly, this Kindred storyline needs to be put to rest. 2.5/5

I really liked this story. With previous volumes I complained a lot about Bryan Hitch not being able to give life to the characters, well, this set completely changes that. There's a deep exploring of most the Leaguers, and the kids are really a breath of fresh air.Only Batman was horrible, but then, that's Batman.I really enjoyed how tasking this whole situation was for every member of the Justice League, it allowed to explore some of their fears and needs. I really like seeing this more humane...

5 ⭐The Justice League's kids are on a deserted Earth when they are attacked by Aquaman. They manage to escape him but are attacked by Sovereign. They open a portal to get help from their parents, the Justice League. The kids stat with their parents until they decide that Wonder Woman needs to be killed. They attack her but are stopped by an army who are set up around the Darkness. Wonder Woman is infected by it and Sovereign comes, who is revealed to be Diana's mother. She and older Aquaman abso...

Wow! A consistent volume at last! Bryan Hitch seems to be doing a better job than previous scribes of managing the Justice League, and I especially liked the character driven moments over the mindless action.

I realize that this is an altered timeline story, but even so, I don't like stories in which beloved characters act out of character, which is exactly what this story was. It was like reading a diet version of "Flashpoint."

Yes, It's another KIDS FROM THE FUTURE story, but the art is pretty and I gues Hitch deserves the chance to showcase the league fighting for the hope of the future, no matter which future that turns out to be.

Unlike the short stories of Vol. 4 (and I can't believe it's been seven months since I read THAT one) Vol. 5: Legacy has a single storyline. In a nutshell, the future offspring of current JLA members suddenly appear in present-day . . . and complications ensue! Would you expect anything less?After an uneven beginning there were some good scenes (Barry Allen / Flash and Green Lantern / Jessica Cruz with their teenage kids - talk about an 'instant' family - comes to mind) but the sound and fury fi...

This was a bit confusing towards the end, but the set up was actually pretty decent. I'm not a huge fan of time travel stories where characters meet themselves or their kids or whatever, though. DC used to have pretty hard set rules on this kind of thing back in the Silver and Bronze Ages: No telling past selves/family/friends about future events! In this book, the League finds out who lives, dies, when, and how, and there's no discussion about how this can fuck things up. Plus, these issues wer...

While I enjoy alternate history/timelines stories this was very underwhelming. I mean they introduce these new Justice League the Next Generation and an apocalyptic scenario that plays out in one volume??? And then the big reveal of the major villain was just dumb and I was like wtf all that for this reveal???
