Has this been posted yet somewhere? This is a solicitation on German Amazon for a Levitz/Lightle Trade, coming out in december. I was quite surprised to find it, and I'm even more interested what issues it will be collecting - probably a sequel to "An eye for an eye"?
Gives me even more hope that the oldtimers will be the surviving version of "L3W"...

Nice rendition of all three Cosmic Boys on one cover. I am going to buy them all in twos - one for reading and one for taking with me to SDCC next year and hunt down Perez to autograph all L3W books and then frame it on the wall.
Can't wait to see Garth on the next one.

say, Polar Boy, Dawnstar and Wildfire are going to pick up Starman? Dawnstar has been visiting a lot to the 20th century lately...Polar Boy's first time to 20th century, if my memory recalls correctly. Hmm just a speculation. Or Dawnstar s going to introduce her lover to Wildfire, eh? *duck*

No apologies needed Gary. I was going to ask if you minded getting the solicits this month as we're on the road and have no net access in Vegas. Thanks!

The solicitation for Final Crisis : Submit (written by Grant Morrison) makes a reference to "the great darkness". It may just be marketing speak, but perhaps where Morrison is taking Final Crisis is to tie it in with "The Great Darkness Saga" somehow.

Very good representation of where the 3 Legions stand in the pantheons of DC. Gotta love Manapul's intricateness on Dream Girl's revamp, but can't say much about what the cover's trying to imply... Some things are just meant to stay as jokes, and that's it.

argh!! first of all, Dream Girl gets killed....then Dream Boy showed up....then in the last three issues, on the monitor board, it showed Dream Boy first then next issue Dream Girl and recent issue showed Dreamer....argh! what's going on with those Dreamy stuff?! it's driving me nuts! As much as I love Dream Girl and wants to see her come back alive...I am hoping that it will happen.
she looks so pretty, alluring, and lovely!! Unlike Princess Projectra - looks so bitter...is that the return of the Devil's Dozen?

Am I the only one who noticed this L3W cover is not by George Pérez, as stated? Looks more like Tom Feister to me. And Star Boy is back to normal? Hummm. And hopefully, this will be the last time we see XS and all those lame-o Reboot characters! Off with their heads!

It is also on the US Amazon, CK. It seems they are re-releasing the baxter up to the COIE - tying with Action Legion. What is actually more bizarre is that there is a 4th collection of JLI (!!!) announced to January on Amazon. Even though I find it excellent, it also baffles me to why DC is doing so. Are they sorry for killing all these characters?

I don't read the main Legion book anymore so forgive me if this character has already been identified but if not - is that Cannus on the cover there?!? Loves it if so.

Cannus, 3boot superpet or Chameleon...there hasn't been any dog in the series yet, so the possibilities are open.
I sure hope that Dream Girl isn't a fake-out cover and that we get some resolution to her fate - and/or Brainy's concept of her.
