Something Awesome for Sunday

While I am back home I went and looked through my collection of TPB's that I had purchased before I went off to college and found:
The Gen 13 Wildstorm Archive: 528 pages, black and white reprints of all Gen13 from the prelude to the first Gen-13 miniseries to issue 13c of the ongoing title, as well as the source book pages on the team. Printed in 1998, years before anyone else thought of doing these phonebook type reprints.

While this new cast shot for Legion of Superheros from artist Francis Manapul (from the Newsarama article.) is cool, the mostexciting thing from the article was this shot of the Big Three of the Legion.As you can see they were wearing different costumes from what they have been wearing in the modern continuity. In fact the costumes that they are wearing are those of my Legion, the post-boot Legion who, except for an appearance as the Legion of earth 247 in Infinite crisis number 6, have not been seen in three years. They are also the Legion that has XS in it, who was mentioned in JSA two issues back.
For those who are unsure that it is not a shot of the modern legion you can tell for two reasons.
1) The costumes. The design of those costumes admittedly first showed up with the SW6 Legion ( and if you don't know who they are don't worry, it is to much of a headache to ever be mentioned again), but they are at core, the costumes of the Post Boot Legion. Also only with these costumes that you got pouches and have since left.

3) That surly expression on Cos' face. Only a Cosmic Boy who had to deal with the combined snark of the post-boot Brainy as well as Gates would be jaded enough to wear that expression. In addition that picture gets the dynamic of the Post-boot Legion down exactly, with the strong leadership of Rokk and Irma with Garth as the "good cop"/ lighter element of the trio. In addition, this Rokk Krinn would not have been so shocked when the Knights Templis showed up. He would have nodded finished what he was doing and left. Because Cosmic Boy is a bad-ass. Or at least he was.

Know I know that the picture that I have been writing about is probably a left over image from Manapul's portfolio. But a man can hope, and maybe we will see the Post-boot Legion back to kick ass and take names.

From the Seeger Sessions...some good old-fashioned Americana. That and a bunch of friends jamming. Simply perfection.
