Good, good.
I'm a sucker for lists, I'm going to take my time reading that.

I mostly agree. Granted, I haven't read the Titans crossover, or the pre crisis JLA one (BTW, I find the fact that each and every New Gods series has to have at least one issue or story arc entitled "Apokolips Now" extremely annoying. It was funny... Once.), and The Pact is not really a Darkseid a story so much as a Highfather one, but all in all a good list.

So what connection does Darkseid have to the four horsemen ?

Out of curiosity, does anyone have scans from LoSH that shows GDS being in continuity? As well, I heard (from an albeit unreliable user on the Vine) that GDS was an alternate future. What is the validity or falsifiability in that?

This is what you're looking for,scroll down and you'll even find a reviewer mentioning it.Don't have scans but Darkseid's servant mentioned Mordru losing to Darkseid as happened in GDS.Who was the user btw? |

Appreciate it. I will be sure to get that issue myself. Freefa. Predictable,he knowledgeble but always argues over pointless semantics.For eg he once ignored evidence regarding avatars claiming that they were lying(  on another occasion he ignored evidence regarding Dessad impersonating Darkseid cause Dessad took a hit or 2 from Supes he claimed it was impossible for him to withstand hits and fire eye beams riiiight cause it's so difficult for a guy with that much tech to do something like that.Finally he aslo pointlessly argues over the omega effect claiming that Darkseid can only teleport Superman level beings and not flat out end them,seriously WTF. |

LOL. I know what you mean. I corrected all of his claims on that Darkseid Runs the Gauntlet thread, and because he was proven wrong, he decided not to respond to me again. But then he turns around and posts the same nonsense that I disproved on another thread. Where does the idea that GDS was an alternate timeline come from? Is that an honest mistake that could be misinterpreted based on the context of the story, or is that just outright false? |

I think one can be forgiven when it comes to the LOSH.The retcons and re-retcons are flabbergasting. |

I am not an adamant follower of the Legion books, but I have heard of several retcons surrounding it. |

GDS wasn't in continuity for a long time. After COIE the Legion was completely rebooted like just about everything else, and GDS, along with anything pre crisis, was retconned. Unfortunately that didn't quite pan out, so come Zero hour and it was rebooted again to a completely new continuity. That also didn't work out, so in 2004 Mark Waid threebooted (Yes, that is what it's called) into yet another version (Hence Legion of Three worlds storyline in Final Crisis). Finally, in 2007, Paul Levitz, the guy how wrote GDS with Keith Giffen, started writing the legion again, and he just went "screw it" and brought back the Legion he's written about 30 years ago.
Silver, I could post scans, but there's no big "Yes this happened and this panel is proof of it" scan. There are small references to the events, like Darkseid draining Mordru, but I think that's about it. the continuity is the same though, that's undeniable.

The Silverage is lucky to have fanboys in Morrison,Johns and Levitz ;D |
