I love Lee's work, and I think most of these are really great. Imra's costume doesn't fit, but Lee's a far superior artist than most in comics right now, so I can only dream of him on Legion.
This, combined with rampant rumors of Lee dying to do the Legion after Superman, are the really exciting thing for me! I'd love to see Lee on Legion, I think it could really make the series dynamic! Imagine the Legion in the top 10? I'd just like to see the book do well and become one of the premier books in the industry (although I know some fans wouldn't be as inclusive and wouldn't want people being turned on to 'their' longtime favorite book b/c of Lee--something that is totally the opposite of how I feel).
Lee on the Legion would be great!
And T-Wolf looks freakin' awesome!

These can't be preboot designs - Karate Kid is dead preboot, remember? Unless that's Myg, which I highly doubt.
The logical conclusion is this is what the Legion would look like if Jim Lee drew the current Legion, but (like me) he considers names like "Apparition" to be silly and wrote down what he thinks they should be called, just like he drew what he thinks they should look like. Old habits die hard, and the Legion isn't going to be rebooted just to please Jim Lee. The fact that he's worked on the post-Crisis Batman and Superman and didn't try to change either one suggests that he wouldn't want to, either.

Those don't look anything like the DnA Legion, but they'd be great for the current one. Just not yet. The newness hasn't worn off of Barry's designs yet.

The Saturn Girl costume doesn't seem to be all that popular but I've always felt that Imra needed to loose the pony-tail and start dressing like the alpha legion female that she is. Maybe she can loose the skull cap but I liked the long pig-tails she has in the second pic.
All of the others are quite interesting as well. The shoulder cape on M'Onel and the Bell-Bottom sleeves/mini-skirt/short hair on Tinya look great.

Man I honestly have to say. I don't like Lee's version I LOVE THEM. All of them. Saturn Girl looks great.
The bigger version of Ultra Boy blows away the smaller version though. I would pay big money to see this happen.

I like most of them, especially Mon-El's. I hate Lightning Lad's though. PG's top one and Dream Girl's are about the same as their Cockrum costumes. I agree that the costume doesn't fit Imra, but I could see it on Shady or Projectra maybe.

I think I prefer the Kitson designs to almost all of these. The exceptions are Timber Wolf and Invisible Kid.

Don't you mean Brainiac 5? I don't see Invisible Kid there. All I see Brainiac 5 standing next to Karate Kid.

That's pretty much how I feel. I like most of these, and I don't hate any of them as a couple people seem to, but I don't like any of them as much as Kitson's current designs.
The only ones I'm not too fond of here are Karate Kid, who makes no sense, and Timber Wolf, who looks too much like Gambit to me, with the boots and staff.

Honestly, I'm glad to see Jim Lee showing an interest in the Legion, but none of these designs were all that innovative to me. Sorry if that's rude. Also, Saturn Girl without hair is like a hot dog without ketchup or mustard. (Sorry, it's late...best I could do.)
