And fourthed... it looks like a train wreck to me, but there's a certain fascination with train wrecks, so I'll buy the two issues. It will be hilarious if they turn out to be my favourite issues of the entire run.

I have to say the artwork is interesting and that alone will make me invest in this 2-parter when it comes out. That being said though..... I'm very curious to see what Brian Michael Bends-Our-Will-Is will do with this new "Legion" concept he's created beyond this 2 part Future State series .... ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Hopefully the book will continue with the "classic" pre-Bendis (but not post Levitz!!!!!) line up and someone waking up from this bad dream (Dream Girl maybe?) saying something like ... "Oh my, I hope all THAT won't happen!"...... I guess maybe I'm the dreamer here! LOL 
In the present

I see a great darkness... a head on a chord... a swarm of insect duplicates... an angry ball of a man .... I must stop eating the Rimborian cheese before sleep - Dream Girl.

I see a great darkness...no, wait, it's a man with four buttocks sitting in front of me at the movie theatre.

And the new theme song, which will become a running joke, is ""I like big butts!""
When Double-Butt is introduced we will be told of their amazing origin, but every time someone finally tries to tell it they will be interrupted.
We will finally learn the origin in a tweet from Bendis in 2025.

LOL  Stereophonic Flatulence! (Not to be confused with the Welsh rock band Stereophonics, even though their music stinks worse than farts.)

The Legion look to be the most interesting of the characters shown on the big group shot. They don't look to have changed much, while the Legion look to have gone through quite a journey.
