I'm well behind on Elsewhen. Been saving it up as a treat -- and now reading issues in one whole go. This was a real thrill ride. Just the manner of Hitler's demise alone gets the mind whirling about how much history could be slightly different from what we know.
The art is brilliant throughout. Really logical that Logan would at some point have some bone alterations before the Big One.
One plot question: after the first demon attack, let alone the second, why didn't Xavier contact Dr. Strange to have him try to deal with the cairn opening?
Over my decades in comics I’ve noticed there are a (large?) number of fans who would write every Marvel book as the Avengers, and every DC book as the JLA.
It’s sort of “logical” that in a world full of superheroes none of them would ever be truly independent operators. Batman would call on Superman for help. Xavier would call on Strange.
Pretty dull.
So from the beginning different titles have played as if they exist in isolation, unless some particularly special occasion demands otherwise.
That's why I found it fun when, to get around that problem, heroes would have some sort of unspoken "turf" claim associated with their adventures. Daredevil in Hell's Kitchen, for example.
Or, there would be a principle or personality conflict between the heroes preventing them from working together ("I don't approve of your methods!", etc)
Made the adventures more fun and told you a little more about the charactes as well.
