Click on the poster above in Michael's post. I've just changed my image to a much larger version. You can see Brainy's long neck a lot better.

Heh Heh... Brainy's neck isn't that long. Its just the hallucenogenic effect from whatever substance he smoked to make his eyes all bloodshot and droopy.
Tinya looks like she's had too much coffee. Perhaps she works at Sundoller coffee on Bgztl. Beware the goth girl barista, that tamping tool they use to pack the espresso is deadly in their hands.
Saturn Girl just got back from Windsor Castle where Prince Charles taught her how to do that neutral half smile and royal wave.
Seriously I kinda like them but its hard to tell without seeing how the the characters will move and the voice tracks. I'm sure the kids will love it and it'll be somewhat amusing for us oldies.

That's all I'm hoping for... I'm not expecting it to be the all-definitive version of the Legion...more like 'Titans Go;' take a bunch of elements and twist them into something kids today can relate to and enjoy. "Kids" meaning 'actual kids,' not adults like me who have never grown up.
If the original Legion (when it had first come out) had been written for 20 & 30-somethings rather than with kids in mind, who knows how many of us might not be here? Everytime I start wishing the Legion cartoon would look like it's going to be something more towards my preferences, I try to tell myself that it's a selfish thought to want to deprive a new generation of the chance to enjoy something the way I did way back when.
Of course, it's possible I've put waaaay too much thought into that.

Scott, where did you get that updated, sharper picture from, your contact at WB? (Mine hasn't answered back with the questions I asked from the press release.)

I actually updated it from work today but I had a PC crash before I could credit the image. I found it at Ray's Galleries. He has a younger Superman focused image of the standup (apparantly the background was made to not stand out as much) and the promotional poster. It looks like he may actually have gotten ahold of an actual poster from the quality.
Still nothing from my contact at the WB.

I think it is just the original way he was drawn. I cut him out and flipped him so the 'L' was right and he winds up with his knee in Phantom Girl's face and right hand (the one going down) looks like it is shoving Garth aside, slapping him up against his head.
And if you look close enough, Brainy's 'L' is also reversed. This was probably done because Brainy would have been covering Supe's mid section, including part of his 'S' symbol.
They thought enough about the layout but not enough to cut out the belt buckles and just mirror them.

They may have decded to make Brainy a cyborg to give him more visual powers. Or maybe he's even a full android like the original Brainiac.

Actually that picture is pretty much the stand up promo from the show.
