I like that Animal Lad looks slightly melancholy or pensive rather than the more obvious narcissistic expression that the scenario might evoke.
Like he's wondering why that blue aura that revealed his goodness kept him from becoming a Legionnaire.
Blok looks like a big ol' lug who learned everything he knows about kissing from a holo. The darker coloring for him works against White Witch.
I just don't really like Comet Queen, I'm afraid. The first pic was cute and made me think there was something there I'd enjoy, but two rounds weren't enough to change my preconceptions.
Vril Dox-- too much chin and he's upstaged by that baby (just like in L.E.G.I.O.N).

IIRC, Shady's golden outfit (as well as awful costumes for Val and Jeckie) were featured for one of the ACTION back-up tales, the one where 2 disembodied lover-entities enter other sentients to beat the crap out of each other.
Good eye... I of course recognized Xenn in Tinya's outfit (the white on baby-blue is FAB!) but didn't catch that as Shady's one-off outfit until you posted it!

Wow!! I have never seen Mysa and Blok so...so sensual and attracted to each other, and Comet Queen was my choice for this part of the contest so my votes go to:
Comet Queen and Blok
Thanks again, Sketchy!

For some reason I wasn't feeling Animal Lad. And I felt like Comet Queen didn't own the picture. I found myself looking at the girls behind her a bit more.
So, I've gotta vote for Vril because I the expression on his face. And the baby. Tee hee. And Blok. He just looked so... feeling. That's impressive for a hunk of rock.

I loved what you did witrh Blok sketchy, in fact, I've been thinking about finding a new avater lately and think it would be really cool to use your drawing if at all possible.
I liked Comet queen's expression, and Animal Lad was nice, but the I have to vote for the Dox family. As FC says, you nailed the dynamic, and what really pushed it over the top for me was the look on Stealth's face.
Officially, BLOK and VRIL,
Great Job, Sketchy.

Nice! My favorite is Blok as well. I really like this acid-washed version better. Lovely contrast with Mysa.
And...Animal Man. Funny, I don't know anything about the character, but there you go. I can't really tell what he's thinking, looking at himself like that.
I'm just not a fan of CQ, I'm afraid. As for Vril, I agree, he was upstaged by his family.

Cathartic memory time-- Animal Lad's standing in a crowd of would-be Legionnaires at an early tryout. Except he's noticeably older (but not *too* much so) than the rest of them. His facial expression is a mixture of amusement and regret.
There's a few animals running about and the crowd is reacting to them (some comically). A.L.'s used his power, but isn't trying to control the people-made-beasts.
The old-style LSH HQ is in the background. I'm thinking there's a blue glow around A.L.-- but now there's some streaks of darkness in it.
