After a long absence (though one ably filled by two prequel mini-series), Jupiter's Legacy is finally back on the stands. This first issue doesn't miss a beat as Mark Millar and Frank Quitely settle back into their world and explore what happens when the supervillains find themselves becoming the heroes. As with the previous volume, this issue will offer solid entertainment as long as you don't go into the book expecting it to bring anything radically new or different to the table.
The crux of Jupiter's Legacy's appeal has always been "Frank Quitely drawing a new superhero comic," and that certainly hasn't changed in the many months since the previous volume wrapped up. Quitely is second to none when it comes to creating vibrant superhero characters with unique fashions and a real sense of weight and body language. Millar gives the artist ample variety in this issue, with scenes ranging from quiet, contemplative character interaction to raucous car chases to epic displays of superhuman power. There's a vaguely rough, sketchy quality to Quitely's line-work, but one that gives the book more a frenetic quality than a rushed appearance. Sunny Gho's colors also go a long way towards achieving a lush, cinematic feel.
