I met an artist at Heroescon 2005 that said he did some guest artist work on LoSH - if I remember correctly for issue #9! You guys don't really want to know about it though, do you? I got him to do a sketch for me too, but you probably don't want to see it so...

Oh well okay if you want to know, check out the link below: Legion Fill In Artist
I think this artist was talking about other fill in folks to come, but I didn't exactly catch who else was gonna be coming up...

Thanks! After rereading "The Origin..." thread several times, maybe I should campaign to get Steve a shot at Barry's new Legionnaires.

Georges Jeanty's fill-in is the last one planned - hoepfully my 'real-life' will stay calmer now so that we won't be requiring any more. Hmmm - hope you consider that good news!

I have to say I enjoy the story more when you are the artist, rather than a fill in. Much of the subtle nuances that you add make the story complete. None of the fill in artists to date have had that level of depth.

Thanks! I have to admit something of an unfair advantage over any fill-in artist as I'm part of the plotting process with Mark (and Steve) so I do get a chance to add some 'subtle' touches that an artist new to the book couldn't possibly know about. It's actually one of the best parts about being a regular artist on a book - knowing the characters so intimately because they're part of your life everyday!

Barry I think you shouldn't be as subtle. You so far are the star of the show from every message board and review I read.
I remember at one point you started writing L.E.G.I.O.N. Have you considered maybe writing this full time after Mr. Waid is gone? I mean Waid is great but you seem to be a bit more "hip" being british and all. But seriously any plans to write and rest the drawing hand in a few years?

Hi Jorg-Em Sorry for taking a while to respond - don't know why I missed your post!
Thanks about my writing - I get a lot of input with Mark and really enjoy working with him so I don't miss being a writer at all these days. I would like to do some more writing again sometime, but as long as Mark and I can work together on LSH - it's more than enough for me! My main ambition at the moment is just to stay well ahead of LSH schedules so I don't have to miss any more issues!

barry, if you can't keep up drawing so many pages a month, why don't you guys at DC plan for the legion art something like what it's going on with green lantern? on GL there are two huge artists at work drawing an arc each, so we have three issues by pacheco, then two by van sciver, then pacheco again and so on. would it be so difficult for you to find a "regular fill-in artist" so you can breathe more? i understand that he would be disadvantaged since you're the co-writer of the series and he wouldn't, but... well, i'm sorry to say i didn't like very much the art of issue 8, and when i've seen the previews for issue 9 i was almost up to cry... thank you in advance for your kind reply!
