I actually had to read the text before I realized I wasn't looking at Dream Girl, though. I don't like that look for Neutral.

I thought it was the intro to Dream Girl at first, then I saw the costume details and realized.
I don't think of these Trips as Purple, Orange and Neutral, btw. I think of them as Purple, Orange and White. However, they haven't exhibited any extreme personality differences have they?
I am curious about who the stubborn super villain suitor will be!

It takes a guy with a large appetite to keep triplets satisfied.
And vice-versa, they can cook in shifts!

My fiancé is gonna want to read that one for sure... He ships for Bouncing Boy and Triplicate Girl like mad. And I love what I've seen of Alexander Serra's cover art so far, IMO a major improvement from what Steve Uy did. (I might be in the minority, I don't know, but I don't like his LSH art. It's terribly incosistent from panel to panel, page to page, and just...doesn't look good.)

Talks about Transformers too much. Likes robots with plenty of bling, er big guns!

In the image, Orange looks non-plussed. Shades of disagreement among the trips? That seems like it'd be a complicagted (and unhappy) plot-line for a Saturday morning cartoon show.

I read this last night, and I think it's the best issue yet!
It had humor, a relatable and cohesive story, good art, a noncore character and more surprising character bios on the letters page -- plus art from kids!

Ah, the date issue... I thought it was great, too. Just really fun. I would've liked to see some more Legionnaires but it was a great spotlight issue. And Matter-Eater Lad! He was faboo.

Speaking of art, I was thrilled that most pages had 8-10 panels on 'em. FINALLY someone recognizes that just because a comic is aimed at a younger audience is no reason to oversimplify the writing and art. It was a very good issue.

Ain't that the truth!
I don't get why more folks aren't buying this comic. It's tons better than Waid's run. And yeah, I knew it was gonna rawk when I saw Tenz on the roll call list.
I guess Starfinger isn't as, er... "flamboyant" as I suspected from his 'toon appearance. His infatuation with Trips totally recalled "The Legionnaire Bride of Starfinger" for me, though both stories are completely different.
Love this book!
