Well, I've read the Newsarama article, several pages of threads, and Barry's further remarks on the subject, and I've come to a conclusion: I am excited as hell about two awesome creators coming to LSH with creative energy and juice. I am excited about a shot of adrenalin in the arm for a book that has not been exciting or interesting since Legion Worlds #6.
I can't wait to see what Waid and Kitson have in store for us, and if you agree with me, post here to show your support for our awesome new team!!!
P.S. With this thread, I hereby declare myself officially back.

BTW, Barry is being very cool about everything. Hopefully he can convince his partner-in-crime to pay us a visit when he has a spare moment.

Hi KP, nice to see you here again. I'll have to reserve judgement til I have issues in hand, but I do appreciate that DC is putting such high visibility talent on the Legion. This seems to fly in the face of what usually happens on this book. The Legion is usually a home for up-and-coming talent, not established pros.
I'm sure both Waid and Kitson could've found less challenging assignments to take on books with higher readerships. (Not to mention less demanding fans.) I'll certainly be going into this "new chapter" with high hopes and a sense of relief that the book isn't in danger of emminent demise.

I agree with everything said above. Whatever comes, it's definitely going to be a new, fresh take on the Legion. It's the kind of excitement the book needs again to get me anxious with anticipation for the next issue. Neither Waid or Kitson has let me down with any book of theirs I've read before, so I'm certainly pleased with the duo's placement. Especially with Waid's tie to year one of the reboot.
Kid Prime, good to see you again!

Waid & Kitson are off to a good start - they already brought KP back to Legion World!
We've got confirmation that the Legion is continuing. There's a lot of enthusiasm developing, now that we've overcome some initial apprehension. The creators themselves sound really psyched up about the project, and that is certainly infectious.
It's great to see Barry K. spend some time here on Legion World.
I figure the bar bill for Lightning Lad is running at about $500 so far, with all these offers of drinks, but life is here to be enjoyed.

I'm cautiously optimistic!
The return to character-driven stories certainly sounds promising, as does the fact that these guys are hardcore fans of the LSH (which I never got the impression was the case with DnA).

I'm the eternal optimist when it comes to the Legion. I go into each new incarnation believing it can be great (not will, but can). I've read a lot of good stuff by these guys, so I'm looking forward to seeing what they're up to.

Though my excitement over LEGION didn't begin to decline until after Coipel left, I am honestly excited about Mark & Barry's work not to mention Gail's upcoming arc!
