[Quentin Wallace · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was better than the usual movie tie-in graphic novel. It's a nice background story leading into the film, and if you enjoyed the film you'll probably like this book. The art's nothing spectacular, but it's not bad either. Nothing really ground breaking, but a decent read. Overall, if you enjoyed the movie LEGION I'd recommend this graphic novel.

Fair read to pass the time. Don’t know how I’d feel about it if I hadn’t already seen legion though, all middle and very little beginning or end

I picked this one up hoping it would explain some questions I had about the movie. It gave a bit nicer background to the whole situation, but in the end presented with even more questions.

Overall an quite average comic book read with little plot even for about 100 pages overall and suitable artwork. What I enjoyed the most were the scenes in the dark world, which stood apart from everything and were even understandable when not trying to put them into the greater picture.
