Spoiler warning!! If you haven't read LSH #10 then you may want to avoid this thread until you have. Events of the issue will be discussed in here as the basis for speculation on the next issue and I really really don't want to ruin the highlights of Issue #10 for you.
Ok, we have a pretty good scan of the cover for issue # 11 and even though we don't have an "official" relase of the image it WAS used as an ad on the last page of the current issue. This means I don't feel there should be any problwems with DC or the editorial staff if we take a look and try to pick the issue apart before we've even seen it (as always) If anyone has a link to a solicit or an actual preview I would greatly appreciate it if they'd add it to the thread so we'd have a little more ammunition for rumormongering, speculation and the usual innuendo filled silliness:D
...but to be fair I'll add spoiler space first... * * *

I had the same thought initially and then I realized that the image is a reflection - that IS her right arm...and if you look very closely you can see her left shoulder but that's all.
Seems to me that puts to rest the theory that her arm was amputated though since that's ger right forearm and hand we see in the rubble of the HQ.

Barry will be giving us the pencil/inks to the cover eventually. But, for spoiler purposes it might have to wait until the time or near the time of the issue coming out.

On my computer the person holding Nura has green skin and blonde hair. Why do people think its not Brainiac 5?

It's Brainy. It's pretty clear to me. He's got green arms and a purple chest too if you look at the original closely. On the positive side, she appears remarkably intact if she was completely buried by rubble. He appears to be kneeling.
I'm also hopeful she's not dead. If she were dead or unconscious even her head would tend to flop back not forward, if Brainy were supporting her with his arm on her back.
I see Brainy taking care of her while he tosses her ring to Lyle who takes some of the kids to UP headquarters to try to save it. The kids will arrive in time to save delegate Ardeen or General Toling4rd who'll become their booster in the establishment.

"On the eve of galactic destruction, with the dream of a United Planets dissolving into hopelessness, only an all-out brawl between the Legion and the agents of Terror Firma can halt the coming invasion —-provided a key player in the war finds within herself an unexpected power!"
It seems likely that much of the the action in issue #11 wiil take place on the Terror Firma homeworld, where Projectra's powers will out, allowing her team to rescue Brin and escape. Possibly, the rest of TF follow them to Earth for the "all-out brawl".
Likely also that the other away teams find a way to get off Dormir and Ttrxl and join Jeckie's team in the brawl with TF (see cover of issue #12).
Further speculation:
- Ttrxl and Dormir are convinced to cooperate with Earth to do whatever it is that's necessary to halt the coming invasion. But the Legion must buy the "three key worlds" enough time to put the plan into action.
- Brainy is forced to leave Dreamy to prevent Elysion from completely destroying United Planets HQ (his force-field is the only hope). Saturn Mom survives (and maybe Gen. Toling4rd, too) to become an important player in the "three key worlds" plan.
- With all this stuff going on, it's quite possible we will NOT learn for sure in issue #11 if Dreamy is to live or die.

Hmmm. Forgot about Violet. Could she be the one to stop Elysion from destroying UP HQ?

I think you'll be proven completely correct TC. I bet they'll keep us hanging, making us squirm and come running back for more.

She's got to be somewhere. If the colapse of the Legion HQ didn't bring her out of hiding, nothing will. Why would she stay hidden so long? Is she just shy, or does she have a reason for not being seen?
I hope her appearence is worth the wait.
Just a guess, but I think we'll know if Dream Girl is alive or dead by the end of the issue, but we won't know the extent of her injuries.
