If they're going for that then why not have Star "Man" (is it? or Boy now?) with his bum cheeks cut out?

It's ridiculous. "I'm so mysterious with my big mask...now check out these hooters"

Yes. It does seem that the womens' costumes are being designed to appeal to an adolescent age group. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of decolletage but really how functional is it for an action costume? How do those porno-sized boobs stay in in a fight?

So what.

Spot applications of Brainy's unbreachable force field, I imagine.

[LOL]

So that's why Brainy was walking around the clubhouse with an uncharacteristic smile!

As I said in a neighboring thread: Spirit Gum. [ouch!] Or, for those who recall Carrie Fisher's dress in the first Star Wars flick: Gaffer's tape. [OUCH!!]

I love how even the legendary Power Girl "boob window" isn't a comparatively modest "window" anymore, as it was in the 1980s. It's more like a "boob triple-wide sliding patio door." Feh.

Reminds me of the flashbacks from one of Brainy's previous meltdowns.

I hope that isn't the set-up they're going for here.

I think we should petition DC to make the alternate cover the regular cover and the regular cover forgotten.

Regards the preview:

1) Is that first panel a Star Trek rip-off? Replace Spock with Brainy? The preview makes Colu look like Earth with green skins and tacky furniture. I prefer Colu's unique nature depicted previously in Legion and dotLegion.

2) The listing of worlds, so "seeding" I guess is not the new nature, as these worlds already exist?

3) Rift? Blight World? We going back there? I might enjoy that ride.

I like the incorporation of the "Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Grandfather" thing from Brainy's early appearances.

Durla 1 and Rimbor were both destroyed by Brainiac? Huh.

Well that certainly explains why it took one thousand years to get from 3 to 5.
