Thanks for posting superboymddjr!
I just can't say enough about how much I love Perez's work ... that beautiful cover(s) should be made into a poster one day.

Plus - is that Dr Regulus' feet getting punched out by Power Girl. Or is it Neutrax Neutron or someone.
Great cover!!! George Perez is such a master. He throws in so much good stuff to please the eye. My favourite element on this cover is Vigilante getting punched out of that window by Mammoth(? I think... or could it be Solomon Grundy?). Such a small touch but a great one.
I was hoping to see Colossal Boy on here to make up for his miscolored appearance last issue (and because he always looks good in a crowd scene) but oh well.
Still a great cover. And a great book too.

^ The legs seem to have some sort of fiery energy around them that I don't think Goldface ever had. Not to mention they're high in the air indicating a flier, which Goldface can't do (I don't think). It's either Neutron or Dr Regulus I'm sure.

Thanks for posting the pages Nighty! I honestly don't know anything about this mini series ... Time Masters is it? It's the search for Bruce Wayne or something? I wonder what relevence it has with the Legion, or was this Brainy appearance just him lending a helping hand to Booster? Is it possible the Legion will play a role in the rest of the story ... hmmmmm, maybe I should pick up a copy.

Technically it is the search for Bruce Wayne. But I think it is more of a Rip Hunter story. I am not sure if there will be any more Legin appearances. The story so-far seems good and solid.

Thanks for the tip Quislet,Esq. I think I'll go buy all three copies after work today. It sounds like it might be well worth it.

i say its a ...how Rip Hunter was taught everything he knows of Time Travel by his dad (Booster Gold) who in turn was taught by his Son...paradox city!!!
with the search for bruce wayne being the excuse for the mini series...
By the way looks like Brainy is on Booster's Secret heroism...so that makes 3 people who know Booster's not the fool he appears to the main Dc universe.

I missed Superman/Batman #75. Is the Legion appearance worth me picking up a copy?

For me Superman/Batman #75 was a bit of a throw-away Legion appearance as they really didn't do too much to drive the story. I won't spoil it for you though. I'm a completist collector so I had to get it.
It's nice to see the Legion get exposure across different DC books, so that was a bonus. And, I have to admit, they did look good ... especially Violet.

It makes sense that Rip would learn about Time and the Multiverse from Brainy which is what I think the second to last box on the second page suggests. To think it was Booster you have to believe Booster will be as good as Rip one day. I don't buy that.

I have to disagree Para-Dox. I think Booster is learning about the workings of Time Travel enough to pass on that knowledge to his son aka Rip. Booster does not need to be as good as RIp in order to start teaching him about time travel. And Rip could always build upon whatever knowledge Booster gives him, thus exceeding his father's knowledge. Rip definitely has a more serious demeanor than Booster. But that doesn't mean that Booster is unintelligent or unable to impart knowledge. I would say that Rip's knowledge of time travel will still be greater than Booster's. Even Einstein had teachers whom he later surpassed in knowledge.
Plus I don't see Brainiac 5 actually giving much thought to time travel. It was Rond Vidar who created the Legion's Time Cube, later Time Bubble. And I don't see Brainiac 5 taking the time to teach anybody about anything really. (Silver Age Brainy maybe, but not current Brainiac 5)
