Reading through your posts recently, Steve, it occurs to me...I have NO idea what you look like!
If you're uncomfortable with the request, I'll understand. But you're our most visible (and I daresay, most popular!) Legion creator, and I think I'm probably not the only one who would like to attach a face to the name.
So please consider either posting a pic of yourself or giving one of us who may have a scan handy permission to do so. Thanks!

i'd like to see a pic, too !!
it's always interesting to see what creators look like, artists more than writers in my opinion !!

I'd love to see a pic of Steve. I have one but I don't know if it is our Steve or another Steve Lightle. If he gives his permission I could post it and he could tell us if it is him or not.

I've edited out the other pic that was obviously not Steve but just someone who shares his name. This is the pic that Jeff posted to LegionPics and features Steve and his lovely significant other Marianne.

Yes, that is the picture taken by Jeff Moy. It's funny seeing my wife with long brown hair. I've finally gotten used to it being short and blonde.
As some of you know, Marianne was my model for Mentalla, almost twenty years ago. Back then, she was blonde, and looked pretty much the way Mentalla looked in the comic ... although without the yellow eye shadow that Carl Gafford gave Mentalla. For a brief time, Marianne decided to try dark hair, as you see in the photo.
Well, in the last year Marianne has been undergoing chemo therapy and lost most of her hair. She's also lost quite a bit of weight, as happens during this type of treatment. Now her hair has started growing back, and it's blonde again ... It's like the Return of Mentalla. Anyway, I've become used to her short hair look (which is quite nice), and I hardly recognized her in this picture from a little over a year ago.
Thanks for sharing about your wife, I hadn't heard about the cancer. My thoughts and prayers go out to you both for good health and a long life together!!

Steve, when I saw the picture I wanted to ask about your wife's health since you mentioned it in a Legion chat some time ago. I certainly wish her the best and hope for a complete recovery!

Caroline and I send our love and best wishes to you and Marrianne on her fight. Caroline's mother is undergoing chemo now for colon cancer that was discovered recently when it was almost too advanced. Being 77 they were unsure how she would handle the surger and subsequent treatments but she's taking it like a champ. I hope that Marrianne and yourself just keep good thoughts and know there are others out there to support you.

Steve, I'm terribly sorry to hear about your wife's illness. There's not much we can do to help I guess, but you'll both be with us in our thoughts and prayers.

PS: That's a great photo. I was surprised by the dark hair on "Mentalla!"
I also wanted to jump in and wish your wife the very best.
I'm in the same boat, my wife has been battling breast cancer for the last year...after months of chemo and all the other abuse her hair is just starting to grow back.
My prayers to you and your family...
Mike
