    John Grammaticus was meant to be James Bond. In Legion? You can't read him as anything other than the classic James Bond.
    .. the other books are a crappy Tumblr/Twitter OC version.
    I think Dan was forced to bring him back, and resented it, so he tried writing a character to make the editors mad enough to kill off. Pretty sure they didn't notice.

      Seeing as Abnett has been producing "worse than tumblrinas AI boyfriend" level writing for a while, i think its more that some prior works were lightning in a bottle. After all, no good writer would ever retcon a story of how no matter who you are, the lowliest soldier to the closest a physical god could be, you are still human and its the humanity which matters/will be both your main strength and downfall to a magic trick illusion show with a bad liquid crystal wafer based side reference to TTS (that wasn't even on jetbikes nor would send one to ultramar).
