Sadly the real world (and LSH deadlines) meant I had to miss San Diego this year too - but NEXT YEAR FOR SURE! laugh

It's very unlikely this year - I am hoping to make perhaps one convention this season, but making sure I don't have to skip another LSH issue is my top priority!

I would definitely liek to visit Boston one day though! smile

Hi Barry,

I've been following your career for a while and i have to say you did an excellent job with the JLA: YEAR ONE mini-series, but, alas, have not been keeping up with the current Legion incarnation.

This version has nothing that i need to refer back to - its a completely new era, a fresh start as the Legion enters the 31st century.

Keep up the fine work...your Timber Wolf is especially note-worthy.

One question though: i am not sure what the up-arrow on Light Lass's costume signifies. Maybe you could have put an enlarged feather outline diagonal-wise. She underwent a similar change of emblem in ADVENTURE, maybe it will happen here, too.

Cheers,

Brian

Oh no! I know how much the crew was looking forward to some special Barry time. We see Mark Waid everywhere (he he) but those Barry Kitson times are special.
Ok, I can forgive you for not being there (mainly because I wasn't there either) but the rest of LW that made such an effort to make the coast-to-coast run might be a little tougher crowd.

You might have to draw extra specially well for the rest of the year to make it up to them. laugh

Barry,

Did you have influence for this cover from past issues? I know that is has been discussed in the Early Solit for LSH #12 - Spoilers? thread, but not looking for content answers here, just cover influence.

From my art collection:
[Linked Image]

This has been mentioned as a possible influence. Was it?

Then again if you can't answer now.... totally understandable.

Thanks in Advance!

Chad

(Yes that Chad) wink

Hi guys
It wasn't a conscious influence - I'd forgotten that great image - but they would make cool companion pieces wouldn't they! smile

SouthtownKid,

Yes indeed it is the original and it is positively beautiful in person. I was fortunate enough to stumble upon my grail and it has been part of my collection for the past 3 years, 6 months, & 23 days. But then again who is counting. tongue

That does bring up an interesting point though... Does anyone have, or have seen any other Legion cover paintings? Others would be way cool to see in person.

Curiosity note?????? - - - -

Why does DC have the cover to #11 posted as the cover image for #12 also on their website?? Is the cover a leak they wanted to keep secret?? HHmmmmm?

LLLater!

Chad

PS - And yes Barry those would be amazing together wouldn't they!

Thanks - sorry I've not had time to update the website as much as I'd like...but once we get past #14.... laugh

There is a secret reason why the covers to #11 and #12 are the same on the DC website...there may well be a big announcement...or if the ptb decide it best you may have to wait until all is revealed when #11 hits the stands! It's all good stuff! smile

What could this possibly be? Unless this isn't really the cover to #12? Maybe the real cover doesn't have silhouettes, and so it would contain spoilers?

This is exciting!

Huh? Barry arrived in the night with his regular bi-weekly tease. He's a master of those isn't he.

And shucks I missed him again.

No doubt DC is trying to decide whether it should announce the return of Matter-Eater Lad to the DCU or wait until #11 when all is revealed!

Well, that *would* explain why the Legion's coffers are full!

But I don't know why DC would announce Lester's return. Unlike Matter-Eater Lad, who is arguably the Legionnaire most known outside Legion fandom!
