I did some of the energy glow stuff. Had a bud (RatonPier) animate them for me. Not the look I was hoping for. Not the "fluid" look Barry described above and what I was hoping for. Lightning Lad I can see a bit more animated but the others a fluid animation of Dream Girl's pants and Star Boy's stars...Ultra Boy and the others maybe just a steady glow. Anyways here they are... http://www.geocities.com/legion_of_super_heroes/microlegion/updates/updates.html Jorge

I want to second what Darden (Faraway) said above. We really do appreciate the time you've been taking to check in and answer what questions you can Barry. Your interaction with us, even when are not at our most polite, is just short of amazing.
Thanks!

You guys are way too kind!  I can't claim any special kudos for being up this early - it's when I start my working day - I'm so slow I have to work a thirteen hour day everyday (with the odd break to walk the dog etc) - which suits me great, I can't think of a better life style! The animations are fantastic Nightcrawler - all the new symbols already!

hey Barry !!!
what was the time span between drawing the final page of the preview, and drawing #1 of the new "LEGION OF SUPER HEROES" ???
are there any changes that we'll see appear in issue #1 ???
or were all your designs, pretty much "set" !!!???
Matthew.

Hi tbwUP The first one is easy - about 24 hours I think! Most of them are the characters you've seen already, but there are some that don't show up straight away...so I'll keep them a secret for now. Some of the others were in costumes that were 'mid-design' so they didn't look exactly as they appeared in the preview. So far we've been creating all new villains for the LSH to face... though if I do redesign any classic villains I definietly will have fun doing it!

*Pants. My message didn't post. 2nd time's the charm.
Hi Barry.
Loved the art in the preview. Very excited to have you onboard. Add my voice to the chorus of approval.
Looking forward to seeing the costumes properly come #1. Some of them will take getting used to, but it's refreshing to have a new look. Interested to see what changes got made. Many things I'd like to ask would probably get a "wait til issue #1" answer, so I'll hold off.
It's really useful to hear the thoughts behind what's happening and your creative decisions. More please!
On negative nit-picky side (because how much praise can one man take?!):
E-Lad's colours seem wrong to me, a little too much like Sun Boy (whose hairdo I'm not too keen on. Bit of a basin cut there).
Love the Lightning on Garth, but i wonder if it might have more impact confined just to the classic chest 'bolts'.
Intrigued to see if Shady and Cham remain 'aliens' (and why the revamp necessitates the absence of antenna. No longer a Durlan?)
Keep up the good work. (Are you in London? _Miserable_ weather today)

Thanks Brown Legion and Mandy - I really appreciate the enthusiasm and support! Shady will be considerably bluer in the ongoing series...she just came out a little gray in the preview pic unintentionally!

Hi Barry, I was just wondering is Karate Kid a colouring mistake as well, because on the cover of issue one his lighter??? What nationality is he, is he still gonna be Japanese/or half Japanese???
The preview was great by the way, looking foward to issue one.

Hi Basilos and AA - as always my sterotypical answer is 'wait and see' on anything specific. Glad you liked the preview though!

Hi AA - sorry I wasn't any more help, but we really want to keep as much as possible as unexpected as possible for the new run - so I'm not ruling ANYTHING in or out! Thanks for understanding!
