In 1940s Europe, a group of Allied spies try to track down a dangerous force that seems to jump from body to body, leaving nothing behind but a bloody trail and questions.

Never has the war's outcome been so much in doubt. Amidst this chaos, the destinies of several men will cross through a project code named "Legion," which consists of a series of horrific tests that a young Romanian girl with apparent supernatural abilities must undergo. Her 'skills,' if fully exploited by the Nazis, would give them unimaginable power...
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Word of caution: once you start reading I Am Legion you wont be able to put it down." * <B>All Comic</B> * "John Cassaday in his prime." * <B>Comic Bastards</B> * "John Cassaday does an exquisite job of capturing a range of emotions across all the characters faces. In each moment you feel their pain, sense their fear and experience their horror." * <B>AiPT!</B> * "Veteran artist John Cassaday (Astonishing X-Men) brings his 'A' game in this series for sure. The creepy little girl and her cat, the action scenes with the Nazis and the strike force, even simply the scenes of dialog grab you and pop right off of the pages." * <B>ComicAttack</B> *
