Sorry gang. Got sick last night and missed uploading these. At least you still get to see the covers before most. Only three Legion related ones (not counting the animated series) that I spotted but I just did a quick look. Solicitation text to come later.

1. Is that Brin? Eesh. 2. Aw, cripes; freaking Wildfire again. Do we really have to keep bringing back the same people over and over again?
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Hmm... with Matter-Eater Lad in the last solicit, and Wildfire in this one, it looks like Bedard is putting a concientious effort into bringing back the missing "essential" Legionnaires!
Posted by Kid Quislet on :
I like the feral-looking Brin more - at least he's distinguishable in a crowd from Ultra Boy, Colossal Boy, Invisible Kid and Cosmic Boy with those drooly fangs.
I am also glad to see Wildfire back. I hope his costume is more traditional, rather than the Iron Man look he had with DnA.
Violet and Shady looking good on this cover.

It looks like they're keeping the DnA look, probably to distinguish him from the version currently showing up in JLA/JSA/Action.

Vi and Brin on the cover together? Can't wait to see Arachne's reaction!
Posted by Tromium on :
That cover is uglier than sin but Violet in a sexpot pose on drooling Brin's shoulder is pretty damn funny, if you ask me.
The "other" Karate Kid is Japanese again? Wow! When will the weirdness ever end?

"Lightning World of Winath?"

Yeah, I don't like that either. Or this one:
"Facing off against a foe straight from the pages of Countdown: the Karate Kid"
Countdown is happening before the "Lightning Saga"?

Where is Blok & Quislet then?
Not crazy about the cover either. But the four people on the cover? Those are some of my faves!

I'd hazard a guess that Countdown catches up after the crossover.

That means the Supergirl title is still not in the right timeline then. If DC can't handle getting their titles into a consistent time frame, how can they decently handle the return of the Multiverse?

Vi, Brin and Shady. My top three characters. I can't wait! Not a complete surprise, though, since Bedard mentioned in an interview that he'd be using those three.
That said, the drooling was not necessary.

I have no interest in JLA, but I'll probably get this just because of Mike McKone.

Hmmm after another look. It appears he was the beef that jumped out of the cake.
With, the declining circulation in the Newspaper industry, he must be moonlighting and taking out classified ads in the Adult Entertainer section of the classifieds.

Having Lois there, too, kind of kills the mood somewhat, doesn't it?

Maybe Lois likes to swing (and I don't mean the dance)?
Posted by Pov on :
I'd buy THAT.

Wonder Woman's wedgie looks painful.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
WILDFIRE?!? Looks like I just got interested in this series again... (and yeah, it looks like they're going with something more similar to Coipel's design than Cockrum's. I just hope he doesn't have a similar origin as the lastboot's...)
Posted by Tromium on :
Bah. The lunar-monthly Cult of Validus meetings on Winath are way more fun than any JLA wedding, plus you don't have to bring a gift.
That's not really Wildfire. It's New Earth Squire Burroughs.
Posted by Pov on :
AR Legion collectors are probably going to want to check out McGuinness' action figures for Supergirl and the Composite Superman in Superman/Batman Wave 5, also from this month's solicits:
Joker & Mxy are a 2-pack, BTW.
Posted by Insomniac Girl on :
Wow, that SLoSH cover...
"Quick, everybody, pose as unnatural as possible!"
Posted by Fat Cramer on :
Hope this isn't a Brin-gone-vampire story. Did he just take a bite out of Shady's midriff - or did she just sock him in the jaw after he clawed her?
If the cover connects to the contents, it will be good to see these characters in action. We haven't seen that much of Brin, nothing of Wildfire - and I like the idea that the two tough-talking chicks might be friends (Vi accompanied her to Talok) and team up together.
Posted by Lad Boy on :
Hmmm... Supergirl appears to be ripping a 10 cylinder engine (Audi ?, German) of of the engine bay of what appears to be a 2004 Toyota Camry (Japanese) and hurling threatening the only half Asian member of the Legion. A British Austin mini passively observes.
Clearly this is a curious reimagining of WWII.
Posted by Superboy-Supergirl on :
ooooooooooooooooooooooooo TAKE IT OFF KAL-EL TAKE IT ALL OFF...SHAKE THAT "S" YOUR MOMMA GAVE YOU!
Posted by rouge on :
So either Talokian anatomy is quite different or Shady is exceptionally well groomed.
And people complained about Miller's Black Canary cover.

Tenzil's back! Hurray! Sign him up please!

Yes, otherwise get this Legion out of here ASAP! A Legion without Wildfire isn't worth having!
Tenz, Wildfire and Validus! Alright!

Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
Gonna be great to see Wildfire again! And Tenz would make a nice addition. Though eating his own words? It would be interesting to see Tenz as an antagonist for a while, but I hope he eventually joins up.
Now if Kinetix, XS, Gates, Kid Quantum II and Bouncing Boy would just show up - they're my personal "essential" Legionnaires too
Feral Brin? Hm. I hope that if he does become feral, there's a good explanation. He hasn't been feral in this boot yet.

Switch KQ II for KQ I, and I'm all there.

Didn't Saturn Girl say something about him having a feral mind when he showed up first?

Gee i wonder if she's totaly bare "down there or if she's sporting a "hitler mustache"??

Since the Grell era I'm sure all the Legion lasses get a Brazilian bikini wax. Maybe they call it the Bgztlian bikini wax.

In the Grell era many of the Legion lads got bikini waxes.
