Violet's back. Too bad I won't be there to see her return if Dream Girl is actually dead.

I don't think he had them until issue 10. I think it's one of Barry's elaborate visual clues to tease us.

Yes! Vi & Brainy are two of my favourite characters. The two in cahoots, who knows what evil that could cause...

Maybe it's just me, but I think the coloring on this version from Comicscontinuum.com looks a lot better.

Wow, she looks just like Arachne (well ... almost as cute as Arachne) wink

Maybe that's one of the enemy holding her. Just before she turns around and shoots him/her with her nano-blaster.

I have one small complaint: she's a bit too stacked to be Violet. Salu Digby has always been depicted as being, well, let's just say "slimmer" up top.

And I'd prefer not to see her outfit colored green and purple. Either of these colours would be fine seperately, but not together, IMO.

This minor nit-picking aside, however, I think that the new Shrinking Violet looks great! And I love her guns, too.


If the meek shall inherit inherit the Earth, then I at least want Baffin Island - and a property manager to work for me who is made of sterner stuff than I.

I honestly think that's Nura. Can't think who else it could be.

My first thought was Brin (but I believe he has brown eyes still) and that she had gone with him to "Otherspace" but she has to have been the "Brainy spy" that told him about Cos & crew's break in.

Brin did leave for "Otherspace" before the break in correct?

re: The owner of the eye holding Vi

This has me scratching my newly-shaved head as well.

re: uniform

Personally, green and purple just don't work for me. On Brainy, it does. But on regular flesh-colored skin, it doesn't do it for me. I think though it does mirror her "allegiance" to Brainy. Perhaps Brainy's people based their shrink-tech on Violet's race's inherent abilities? That could be the link between them...

re: Atomic Violet

Well, we got us a newly-seen member!


MLLASH, does your message mean you're dropping LSH if Dreamy's really six feet under???

It does look like Brainy and Vi got a two for one deal on contrasting his and hers super-hero suits doesnt it?

Is she Brainy's experiment, or something? Maybe the Imskians are all tiny and were discovered by shrunken Coluans who visit Imsk to escape the hustle and bustle of nerd life. Who knows, maybe B5 visited and they had a teenaged summer fling at the resort.

Seriously we're sure Brainy likes to trade technology for favours as in Brin's case. Maybe this is the root of Ultra Boy's distrust of him. Vi owes Brainy because she rebelled against her planet's rules. So Brainy gave her tech that let her leave Imsk and grow to human size.

The costume may be green/purple just for the cover or for short term. Many of Barry's sketches appeared green/black. Didn't we see her on colored artwork in green/black.

Only problem is that all the black on the person's eye behind her would make it all funky. Not sure green/black would've worked on the cover.

But I don't care for green/purple. That color is for villains. Or Brainy...or Hulk. Who are almost villains. wink

Hi Guys
Glad you seem to like the cover! I'll send scans of the pencils and inks to Nightcrawler later.
BTW you're right that just because she's featured on this cover doesn't mean it's her first appearance! smile


Cheers

Hi Barry - yeah she appeared in silhouette in the previous issue...but what's important is that we get to see her in color and gracing on the cover for the first time. smile now....the issue is...who is the legionnaire holding her? wink

Actually, she's been among the silhouettes since #2 - the issue that started the silhouettes.

Looking forward to see in the pencils and inks, Barry!

Whoooo!!!!! She's here!! She's really here!!

Okay, so which Legionnaires know about her existence? Brainy's pretty much a given, but who else? And I guess it was Brainy who planted the rumor about Atom Girl so everyone would end up thinking she was a prank? Or was it someone else?

It'll be interesting to see if she's actually affected events in past issues without our knowledge! (it'd be interesting if that were the case, but it reminds me of the last "Heroes for Hire" series where Ant-Man was an unseen member for several months)
