comment |
The Great Darkness Saga is a Legion of Super-Heroes story arc, written and illustrated by Paul Levitz and Keith Giffen respectively. The storyline starts in Legion of Super-Heroes (vol. 2) #290 and ends in issue #294, with issue #287 serving as a mini-prologue. The Great Darkness Saga is the story which cemented Darkseid's role as the Big Bad of the DC Universe, and it's widely considered the best Legion of Super-Heroes story.Mystical artifacts are being stolen all across the galaxy. When the Legion is called to investigate the case, they run into powerful creatures called Servants of the Darkness. In spite of the Legion's best efforts, the Servants make off with every relic every time and hand over them to their Master, who feeds off their mystical energy to restore his own power. Finally he feels powerful enough to leave his forgotten world and prey on the living.One after the other, the Legion's worst enemies are easily and quickly defeated by the Master of Darkness, who proceeds to add their powers to his after each battle. Meanwhile, the Legionnaires discover the disturbing fact that the Servants are twisted clones of powerful long dead beings. Whoever the Master is, he's powerful and ancient enough to get ahold of the DNA of Superman and a Guardian of the Universe two thousand years ago.The Legion engage the Master and his Servants in Zerox, the Sorcerers' World. Although they're defeated, they have gained a key piece to defeat the Master... which is fortunate, because the Master is about to gain the means to bring the galaxy to its knees. |

comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: The Legion travels to Zerox, most famously known as the Sorcerers' World, inhabited by wizards who are constantly changing the landscape merely for showing off, and where Legionnaire Dream Girl's sister White Witch studied magic in the past. All the same, Dawnstar -whose race is deeply spiritual- still believes magic is a hoax. |

The Worf Effect: Superboy is the first Legionnaire to be punched across the place by the first Servant the Legion come upon. His teammates get the "This thing is dangerous" message right away. Mordru and the Time Trapper are arguably the Legion's worst enemies. The Master of Darkness crushes Mordru right after breaking him free, and beats the Traper off screen. |

No One Gets Left Behind: Subverted. In the first issue, the Legionnaires have just taken a Servant of Darkness down when a dimensional portal opens up, letting another Servant rush into the place. It looks like he's come to rescue his partner, but he grabs the relic she failed to steal and flies back into the portal, alone. To add insult to injury, their Master instantly collapses the space warp despite that his defeated Servant was rushing towards it. |

Apocalypse How: The Master of Darkness takes over the minds of the whole population of Daxam and commands his three billions of slaves -every one of them as powerful as Superman- to set their homeworld on fire. Then, after the whole Daxam has been burned to ashes, he orders them to carve his face into the scorched planet. |

What Measure Is a Non-Human?: The Legion's "Thou Shalt Not Kill" rule doesn't appear to apply to twisted clones. Wildfire burning a Servant down, Yera-as-Shrinking Violet giving one a stroke, and Timber Wolf shattering another to rubble elicits no comment from their teammates. Judging by Timber Wolf's statement, the Legion regard the Servants as heaps of inanimate matter. |

Foreshadowing |
| | The Great Darkness Saga (Comic Book) / int_9d12bbc1 |
comment |
Foreshadowing: In the first issue, readers are introduced to a Servant that rides Orion's flying gear while shooting Astro-Force blasts. Said Servant is called a broken imitation of the Master of Darkness' son. A subtle one, but the Master of Darkness is surrounded by Kirby Dots during his first scene. Said visual effect is named after Darkseid's creator, Jack Kirby. When the Zeroxian wizards summon a baby to counter the Master of Darkness, Dream Girl states she feels he's the Alpha to the enemy's Omega. Darkseid's Omega Beams are his most terrible weapon. |

Continuity Nod: Cosmic Boy mentions Supergirl found Excalibur at her Legion initiation, a reference to Supergirl's Three Super Girl-Friends. The incident which led to the Legion ostracizing Chameleon Boy and Light Lass believing Timber Wolf cheated on her happened in Legion Of Super-Heroes Vol 1 #289. In the final issue, a footnote reminds readers that Supergirl resigned in Superboy 1949 #204. Dev-Em, an ally to the Legion who hadn't been seen since Adventure Comics #320 makes a short reappearance. |

Relative Button: During one battle in Takron-Galtos, a Servant of Darkness is easily beating Ultra Boy and Mon-El. Then he decides to blast Phantom Girl and Shadow Lass, and suddenly he finds himself getting all but cooked by two sets of eye-beams. Lightning Lad wakes up from a coma to fry a Servant who is attacking Saturn Girl and Cosmic Boy (his wife and oldest friend, respectively). Later, Wildfire is fighting another Servant of Darkness. Their beam-o-war seems to be evenly matched until the Servant gleefully expresses his intent to rape Dawnstar after killing him. Wildfire blasts him into oblivion immediately. |

Patchwork Map |
| | The Great Darkness Saga (Comic Book) / int_d24b61a8 |
comment |
Patchwork Map: Justified. The Sorcerers' World's geography is constantly changing due to the wizards' love for showing off. So you have a mountain range populated by rock monsters big enough to build cities on them next to an ocean where "cities [are] built atop waves frozen in motion". |

Equivalent Exchange |
| | The Great Darkness Saga (Comic Book) / int_d782bd52 |
comment |
Equivalent Exchange: The Zeroxian wizards manage to summon Highfather in the 30th century to help the Legion fight the Master of Darkness. But since such a magic comes with a high cost, they have to relinquish most of their world's magic, and two wizards sacrifice their lives. Dream Girl explains "that was a price that had to be paid, and the Teachers paid it willingly." |

Screw Your Ultimatum!: In the final issue, a servant of Darkseid intercepts the Legionnaires transporting Child Izaya and claims he will spare them if they surrender the child. Sun Boy blasts his face. Shortly after Darkseid has crushed the Legion except for Shadow Lass, who is standing between him and Child Izaya. Darkseid states he will spare her team, since the Legion mean nothing to him, if she stands aside. Shadow Lass retorts she has nothing to lose because he can only kill her once. |

Easily Forgiven: Defied. When the story opens up, most of Legionnaires are still holding a grudge against Chameleon Boy because he dragged them off in a suicide mission which nearly brought about another Khundia-Earth War. And no, they don't think "Nobody got killed" is good enough of a reason to forget and forgive. |
