I dropped this as of #518. It completely sucks, and I say this as a fan of old Levitz Legion, as well. Horrible cover too, BTW

When I supported all DC historical/cannon books, I'd have been all over this. I've actively avoided it, but Bolland drawing the Atom? Bastards! Must... resist... must...

I read "Indigo Tribe" and figured C.Y.A.

Captain Atom
JUSTICE LEAGUE: GENERATION LOST #13-14
Written by JUDD WINICK
Issue #13 art by JOE BENNETT
Issue #14 art by AARON LOPRESTI
Covers by DUSTIN NGUYEN
1:10 Variant covers by KEVIN MAGUIRE
DC’s biweekly JUSTICE LEAGUE event continues!
In issue #13, Max Lord sends his newest recruit to confront the JLI. But what happens when Magog tries to kill Captain Atom in a fight to the finish? Someone will die, creating repercussions that will affect the future timeline of KINGDOM COME!
In issue #14, the JLI has been framed for murder. Now, hunted by Checkmate and put on the world’s Most Wanted lists, our heroes are exhausted and pushed to their limits – which is why the Creature Commandos choose now as an opportune time to attack them!
Retailers please note: These issues will ship with two covers each. Please see the Previews Order Form for more information.
Issue #13 on sale NOVEMBER 10
Issue #14 on sale NOVEMBER 24
32 pg, FC, $2.99 US
I hate most Kingdom Come references, but Captain Atom gaining a potential nemesis out of Magog is intriguing. The deadly combat could go either way, but based on the solicits, I suspect Max will off his own boy.

Dwarfstar

The confrontation you never thought would happen is here! It’s Bane vs. Scandal in a time-lost world, as the two Secret Six teams find themselves on opposite sides of a vicious war that could destroy Skartaris!

Yeah, that's right-- I just gave Dwarfstar his own header. Hey-- he's the man who killed Ryan Choi... with his credit card.
