Re-reading the 1st two parts... we see Thom (in JLA, I think) going "itsy bitsy" or something like that, while making hand gestures implying something small, while the others are discussing the scattered Legionnaires. Methinks Vi is one of the 7.

I don't think that the SLoSH cover is any good. Mediocre at best.
The problem with the Perez Brave Cover #5 is probably that it's only faces. That's a rather poor composition choice. It would have been much better if it would have been an action scene like #3 with the Fatal Five on it. Perez is trying to give every character a distinctive look, but at the same time not loosing the Kitson feel. That's impossible - because, even though I very much like Kitsons stuff, his faces to me are looking all alike. For me, it is rather impossible to tell the new Legionnaires from each other only by their faces, just like back in the 60s with John Fortes art. They are walking costumes - which might be part of the problem why I just don't dig this Threeboot - lack of personality!
Further problem is that Wiacek is not Perez' best inking choice - compare his work from Avengers inked by Al Vey with his Titans or Brave Bold stuff and you'll see the difference in the details. Vey is the perfect Perez inker!
So I don't think you can blame Perez for trying, but I think he should do his own thing. I just reread Brave and the Bold ##1-3 and it's wonderful even with Wiacek. I guess #5 will rule if he does not too much try to copy Kitsons look.
And then... let Perez loose on the Levitz Legion!!!

Nope, always a Monday so the 16th would be out. It will be next week. Usually the third Monday. If you look at when I started this thread it was the Sunday before the third Monday.

I should be able to access the covers tomorrow, the solicits on Monday just before the 5:00 PM (Eastern) release time.
Anyone look at the previews Newsarama has? The hardcover for the covers of 52. I wish they'd do something like this for Barry's run on Legion.
