thanks for sharing these Barry. you are so generous. i love seeing the concept sketches as well as the pencils and inks.
interesting that you returned to your first sketch but made some of the SP's into Legionnaires. first instincts are usually right on. i'm also happy to see some different legionnaires get some cover time. who are you enjoying drawing the most these days? you do wonderful subtle things with both Shady and Light Lass.

Awesome cover Barry. Kinda reminds me of the "Who Shot Laurel Kent" story.

As always, thanks so much for sharing.

This is such a cool cover and a great to see the process.

The perspective is so unusual, very voyeuristic.

Can't find the right words, but an eerie presence about it.

Thanks again, can't wait!

LLLater!

Thanks guys
It did make a bit of a change after the recent Supergirl features that were so bright doesn't it! smile

Glad you like how I'm treating Shady and Light Lass - they both have a nice little 'edge' to their characters that's fun to exploit in their expressions and body language.

Another incredible cover Barry!

I can't wait to read the story behind it. #16 looks to be setting things up for this one too.

I'm continually amazed at the awesome work you put into these covers Barry. I think we need a Legion cover collection, like Superman is getting. But your inked, black and white covers need to be included. Sometimes color just doesn't convey what your inks do. Especially with this cover. I love the color one we've seen but your simple b&w final above just has more feeling, to me.
