First, I kinda love that the Legion is a team that can have two different covers, showing eight different members (not counting the headshots on the upper one), and only have one repeat character.
As much as it sometimes seems like you can't have a Legion cover without Garth, Imra, Rokk, Kal and / or Brainy front-and-center, the only repeat character we've got here is Karate Kid!
277, for the win. I have no idea who Dr. Mayavale is, and even if I did, would happily betray him for Reflecto.

I was an hour to late on the last cover vote,1st time I've seen this post,I would have voted 197 hand's down though.
But on this vote I'm going with the Mayavale cover,I remember when I picked this issue up off the spinner rack,how much I loved those Perez headshots of the Legionnaires on the side.
I tried to rip their soul out.I tried to make them forget Superman. But they won't.

The first time I saw her was in Crisis, wondering why she hadn't predicted it coming, and I was like 'Who is this beautiful character with this excellent costume?'

If only the contents of a comic could live up the cover's promise . . .
I vote for Mayavale. It's more original and visually interesting than the other. Besides, I like the border and head shots (even if Garth looks as if he's been borrowing Jan's perm conditioner).

But semi-seriously... are we SURE the Mayavale tale warranted 8 more pages?

Wow! I'm not sure! Did anyone else notice how prominent Nura's breasts are in the first and Ayla's are in the second? Well, having read neither and otherwise being to close to call, I'll use my breast-o-meter score and hand the victory to the Mayavale cover and Nura's slightly more prominent breasts due to her shiny costume! (the bondage helps, too!)
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

The Mayavale DOES have these hands that are sort of going everywhere! But, well, I'm anti-bondage and I hate too much going on, on covers and that one is so loaded with 'stuff' that I find it quite ugly.
The Reflecto cover is much cleaner and simpler. And Ayla's there with my favorite costume for her, on, which counters Cos, who's in my most hated costume of all time for men.
So, I vote Reflecto.
A singin' and a dancin' along the way.

I vote Mayavale...the gropey hands, the white afro, the weird sci-fi bondage, Dreamy...it's got everything. (I do dig the Reflecto one a lot too though)

I pick Legion #49. It has a sense of whimsy and fun.

As a person who dislikes ME Lad more then any other Legionaire I'll pick cover #11. The cover has better/more detailed artwork.

This is SUCH a fun thread,I wish I'd tumbled on to it before!
While I do enjoy the "ediblity' enhancement of 49, I think I have to go with 11. Tenz's attitude just leaps off the page. I LOVE the bite out of the "L" in Legion.
All you need is Love (and a whole big bucket of Money).
