Back Issue is an incredible publication! It's also available in digital format -- at a cheaper rate.

I like the cover, but Ross's coloring has gotten a bit weird in the past few years. I prefer his original style.

Also, Ross being Ross -- he decided against haing both Lu's in different colors when split.

Shady's pose is indeed funktastic.

I love the detail on Star Boy's costume, too.

Wow, Projectra's got some sort of Australian crawl swimming action going on...

Ha, Jeckie's also got Legion earrings on!

Love the futuristic look of the city beneath them, even the dorky rocket-tram-tubes under Gim.

Brin's got his classic look with the upswept hair and ears and eyebrows, Violet's got her Cockrum-era costume on, Imra's in her Farrah-kini, classic!

Some of the faces seem a little too similar (Karate Kid, Cosmic Boy, Ultra Boy and Brainiac Five, for instance, seem to have the same face, in different colors), but it's a cool shot, nonetheless.

Alex Ross has always done an amazing Shady.

Can anyone post the original Grell cover for comparison?
