I slept through this episode except for the last 10 minutes so Im guessing the villain was a pre-Legionaire. I didn't think she was that great but I cant really post a review without viewing the whole episode. I liked when her hair fried off though  |

It was alright. That girl got kind of crazy. Did Supes really have to fry her hair off?

It was great to see Lobo. I wish they would have given us a shot of his face though. This episode had some pretty cool action. Brainiac 5's part in it revealed a lot about the character and the other characters feelings toward him. Superman behaved the way many teenagers would. The story with Alexis was once again predictable. So far, all three have been way to easy to connect the dots. I would love to see some more twists and turns. I liked the ending that showed that this girl is going to be a main villain for the show. I like the Scavengers. They are a really cool gang that I hope we see more of.
Overall, okay. It could have been great if they would get some better scripts. I hope that these three episodes are the only ones suffering from the writing.

I've been hearing at WF that it's like a female Lex, hinting with aLEXis and I think that's a cool little fact As well as her going bald, (Lex anyone) and her in the exoskeleton suit. |

That makes me like Alexis much more. Thanks TDK. It makes more sense now too. She is rich. She is a red head. She is intelligent. She has a friendship with Superman. All of those things have been done with Lex. I can't believe I didn't pick up on this before. Cool. aLEXis may turn out to be a pretty cool character afterall.

Yeah I noticed that too. Right when her hair got fried the first thing that came to my mind was LEX LUTHOR BALDNESS! So where was LOBO I didn't catch him. I recorded it so I'll take a look later.

Also right at the end when Alexi is in Jail her prison uniform spelled 'Luthor' across her chest in Interlac - the language spoken in the 30th century - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlac |

I love the cameos. These easter eggs just make me happy.

Found it to be decent enough. Not outstanding and IMO it had a slightly more juvenile tone. Not outstanding but not completely aweful either. I did really kinda like the Alexis angle though. She could turn out to be a neat and enjoyable addition.

I'm really liking the easter eggs in this show (Booster and Skeets in ep.1, Lobo in this episode and the parody of Luthor in this episode).
"What did you do to me?!"
Reminded me of a joke Mark Waid made about the Silver age Luthor.

Im actually watching this show. And when it was announced i decided i wasnt. Man.
This was a good ep. Im actually glad we have an almost pure Superman villian. Subtly connecting her to Lex is cool.
Seeing Lobo was awesome.
Seeing the decendants of Lex and Brainiac fighting over Superman's attention was cool in my view.

While Legion isn't as dark as other DC cartoons, that really isn't what the show should be and for what it is the cartoon is quite good.
