Legion of Super-Heroes #3

The Dominators! I remember them from, oh, um, some crisis type crossover event from who knows when.

Yeah, so those penis ships are flown by the Dominators. The Dominators look like Gary Busey after head-butting Wesley Willis.

That's how you correctly spell lose, Internet.

And it's what the Dominators do almost immediately! The don't shoot one Legionnaire and they lose three ships alone to a girl who can become intangible. The Dominators apparently used the Death Star Construction Manual when making their ships because Phantom Girl only had to touch the ship in exactly the right place and the thing would blow up. And then Polar Pal simply had to touch the hull and funnel an Absolute Zero Cold Wave through the ship's circuitry to blow it up. Oh! And even the new kid, Chemical Dude, was able to blow up a ship or two by simply making it's fuel reaction speed up. Those stupid Dominators ended up retreating with Chameleon Boy stowed away inside one ship. Unless he was just placing a tracking doodad on board.

And the Bad Daxamite is defeated by Mon El, the good Daxamite, when Shadow Lass covers them over in her absolute darkness power. It turns out Shadow Lass is Mon El's ex-girlfriend, so he has an advantage when fighting in darkness.

Mon El fucked him into unconsciousness?

That issue was a quick read because it was mostly battle. What was most interesting about this fight with the Dominators and their war fleet was the way the Legionnaires never worked together to fight the ships. Each one acted completely alone to fight one ship at a time. In most comic books, this would mean the team would lose until they learned to work together. But in this comic, they were just showing off the way each Legionnaire's stupid power could be used to their advantage. The Dominators were just used to showcase the Legionnaire's abilities! I hope they're pissed!

It actually took more teamwork to take care of one Daxamite than the amount it took to defeat all the Dominator Warships. Maybe every time a ship was destroyed, I was supposed to let loose with an excited yippee! But since I care about the same for the Dominators as I do for the Legionnaires, I was just saddened by their complete failure.

One more issue of Legion of Super-Heroes before I can get back to reading one issue of each title at a time! Yay! No more getting completely burned out by one stupid, lousy, boring, uninterested comic book! I think I'll drop Legion of Super-heroes down one rank out of spite for wasting my time.
