love pearson's gestural drawing. and the graphic design of the page has a lot of action, tension, and even some story telling.

LSH #66: "So am I in or what?" Uh, since you're wearing a Legion belt, I guess you are!
Legionnaires #14: Clearly, goofy looking footwear spelled the doom of the SW6 Legion. I just noticed the shadowy figure in the logo (I don't think I ever did before!). Is that Lyle?
Determined grit, ticked-off jerkface or flag-bearing hope? Think I'll go with Legionnaires #14 (though I think it's shadowy Lyle that put me over...) with Mon-el Lass close behind. I'm just not fond of the facial expressions on #66 (Jenni and Ayla and Gim's-- though Brainy's almost makes up for it.)

34. I never liked the "Andromeda as xenophobe" storyline and the Moder cover just brings it to mind. The AH cover is so awkwardly posed. Makes me think he should just stick to static pin-up style pieces (though I know he's done better work since).
Did Hughes do much work before his Legion/Legionnaires covers or was he another famous artist that we launched upon the world?
Edited: Whoops! Got my numbers mixed up...

I think his Justice League (America) work was the first time i saw him do his lovely babes. (Fire, Ice, even a female Dr. Fate) which was prior to Legion. He was the semi regular after Maguire, and Templeton, and luke mcdonnel and he did (part of?) an X-men annual or giant size back in the day.
