That's so cool! We're finally getting close to issue#1 so maybe Barry will start teasing us with pieces out of issue#2?

I can't wait to see more!

Hi Guys - sorry about the silence - been working VERY hard - and with some AMAZING collaborators (to be announced soon)so we can keep to the 30 pages a month schedule. I am having to appear as co-plotter only, for one issue - but with the work we've got ready now and the planning in place, that should only be a one-off...(though I'm sure there are one or two who'll actually enjoy a rest from me smile especially when you find out who is working on that issue)

Anyway - I sent the design sheet with Phantom Girl on to Nightcrawler yesterday - so with a bit of luck I'll be able to post a link to it inn the near future (thanks as always Nightcrawler smile )

Apologies again about being so 'invisible' for a week or so - but you always know where I am if you want to get hold of me by email! smile


Cheers
Barry

I'm a bit confused...is E-lad's costume red & yellow (as in the preview pages) or blue & yellow (as seen on the cover to issue #1)?

Hi Guys
Just a quick note - I just got notification that the email I sent to Nightcrawler with the design sheet on has been delayed...hopefully it'll get to him soon! smile

Yeah. Sorry. My hotmail account has been giving me mail in odd order and often the server is busy when I check it.

Barry, if you like you can send it to my other account at glc_sd@yahoo.com.

What's up Mario. I think Barry gave a clue that his costume colors may change. The only time we've seen the blue version was on the cover. Every time we've seen him in the interior preview pages it's been red/yellow. The cover may (or may not) have been a mistake.

The latest preview rocks!

Hi guys
Here's the link to the design sheet with Phantom Girl

[Linked Image]

- I think the pencil doodles at the bottom may have been my first Projectra takes smile

Hope you enjoy these thought processes in doodle form!

I was going to say those look like Jeckie.

I also like the Duo Damsel inspired aspect of the first PG. The bell-bottomed ensemble at the bottom is the absolute best.

Thank you sooo much for sharing these with us, Barry!

I missed this part! Steve Lightle? Dave Cockrum? laugh Maybe George Perez or Jim Lee? smile

Although from what I'm seeing I think I want Barry all the time. Those L.E.G.I.O.N. issues without him lost a great deal of detail and depth. And although I'm a Grummett fan, I'd have loved to see Barry finish off the Thunderbolts/Avengers series.

It would be awesome were it to be Dave Cockrum. Not only is he one of the Legion's best all time artist but mainly because we would know for sure that he was finally back on his feet after his medical problems.

Steve Lightle would also be great of course. Another of my favs!

Maybe Gail Simone is making another guest appearance?

Or maybe they tracked down Mike Grell! Wouldn't THAT be cool! BouncingBoy

I got the impression that Barry's help was in the scripting department so the first name that I though of was Gail. But it would be cool to see a Dave Cockrum back-up story wouldn't it? Or one by Steve or Mike Grell. So many possibilities.

Great sketches again Barry. I like the beginnings of Projectra. Especially the larger one. You really, to me, get across a regal quality with that pose. 3 more weeks! scream

Kinda liked the blue...ah well.

I'm loving the preview sketches. They've turned me from a "maybe I'll look at it" to a "Must buy it!"

Is it just me, or is there just something right in the universe when PG wears bellbottoms?

I love these new costumes. They really give us the sense of the team as a collection of individuals in a way that the reboot stripe costumes never could. These are Costumes, not Uniforms, and that distinction fits the Legion very well.

Thanks Barry!

Those are excellent as the previous ones!

Congrats Barry!

And i think Director Lad is right telling these are costumes and not uniforms, that made each character more cool and fits well with the personnalities of young heroes, as each one does want to be unique and recognisable.

100% agreement here, man! tinya could pull off bellbottoms even before they came back in style

and she had the original low-riding hip huggers

Nice sketches! I think the one that's like Duo-Damsel's preboot costume looks cute. It could even work as casual wear when this Legionnaire goes for a night out on the town! The one to it's left reminds me a little too much of the style of costumes worn in the reboot, so I'm glad you didn't go with that one. The one to the far right is my favorite of those in the sketch.

The central "Jeckie" sketch looks VERY nice. I wouldn't have minded if that were the costume she actually ended up wearing.
