Alas, most of this book is taken up with the sort of Claremontian battles that have come to define any story involving The Legion of Superheroes. There are no characters here - merely a loose collection of bodies attached to various superpowers.
These scenes consist of various characters standing around, explaining the action to the reader (Quickly, Ass-Kicking Lad! Kick the ass of that big guy while I hold him in the grasp of my Magnetic Mind Grip!) while clumsily letting us know their codenames. It's a shame because Jeff Lemire is capable of so much better than this and the scenes in which his Justice League speak to themselves showcase the difference between the two teams.

As before, the artwork is erratically mixed. Neil Edwards is a clearly skilled penciler, but too many of his figures seem artificially posed. The best aspect of the artwork is the energetic colors added by Jeromy Cox.
