The Brave and the Bold cover just reminds me of how badly I want George Perez on a Legion title...

Hmm... I just noticed that Donna has a silver lasso. Has that always been part of her costume?

As far as I know, this is the first time that Donna has carried a lasso since her Wonder Girl days. She had a net early on as Troia, but I don't believe that's been seen in quite some time.
It makes sense, since the other Wonders carry lassos. I wonder if it was a gift from the Monitor...

I LOOOVE that Calero cover! One of the best depictions EVER of these three Legionnaires and their powers.
The B&B cover is good. What a great mix of characters -- Batman, GL, Lobo, Kara, Blue Beetle and the Legion. Fun stuff! Will the B&B Supergirl know this Legion, or not? One quibble though (and no knock on Perez) -- showing Chameleon with Plas/Dibney elongated neck. Some day, someone needs to decide whether chameleon is 1) a mimic of organisms and/or objects or 2) a malleable, amorphous piece of muscled silly putty. I think the powers are different. Just me.
I can't wait for the Supergirl issue, mainly to see if the story has any coherence and/or relevance to anything. A bait and switch would be a big leap forward for this comic.
Sure is a whole lotta Legion goin' on. Is there an anniversary or something coming up? .)
I actually didn't much like the Superman on the Action cover, but Frank's art is fantastic, so no big disappointment. To me, Supes looks strung out on a controlled substance. Maybe he's all choked up about his Legion? Join the club! I am SO old-school in my Superman preferences. Ross's Kingdom Come Supes is pretty much how I always pictured him -- slightly older than 29 and barrel-chested. Doesn't have to have 'roided musculature, but he should look like he could give you one heck of a bear-hug. On the other hand, I like Batman to be lean and acrobatic, a la Rogers, Aparo and Breyfogle. I could never undertand how Frank Miller's Bats could hold himself on the batrope.

That Colossal Boy effect is really cool. I like the B&tB HC cover too.
Two Vals. Wasn't Tony Bedard doing some fill ins on Supergirl? Since he's on Countdown he should know what's coming up.

Pretty exciting previews. I didn't know Validus was in the Injustice League(orwhatever they are called).

Karate Kid of the present? Is that how they're labeling the Lightning Saga KK? From the solicits though, it seems to me that the 2 KKs don't actually meet.

Hasn't anyone else noticed that this solicit doesn't match this cover? Yet it seems to match the cover for the September issue (see below) and the September solicit seems more appropriate for this month's cover, since it referes to Winath.

Yeah I noticed that right goo. Remains how Bedard is going to structure the issues. SOunds like he's going to have individual issues focus on a particular sub-team with them all meeting up in the finale as opposed to cutting between scenes.
Here's hoping we won't have to rip off and switch the covers to the two issues to make 'em match the contents

E.R.G 1 is now a walking H bomb on Lallor?
Well is Lallor is still a world almost destroyed by war that makes sense.
But
How does that tie in with Wildfire from LL Saga having the red tornadoes body?
