I was oogling the team spread Francis did, and part of me wondered what it would be like if Tinya and Lyle got together...

Sorry, just random thoughts

thanks guys. yeah there were a few coloring mistakes that made it into the book. More than I was hoping for, but thats the ins and outs of a monthly book. But yeah I did a double take as well when I saw SG's hair colored that way.... we will be getting a new colorist as of issue 39 though, JD Smith, real talented fella so I'm looking forward to it. Nathan did a great job but I'm excited to be working with a really old collaborator. Ironically enough Livesay and JD were the first "professional" art team I worked with when I first broke in at top cow.... cool huh...

Francis gave CBR a studio tour. Check it out!

Nice pad, Francis! Your girlfriend Agnes has a nice setup, too-- what does she do for work?

Nice write-up, I love this kind of stuff. A studio down by the river, that'd be a dream for me but strangely, none to be had around here even though our river front is spectacular.


"Moo and Otis:" any chance of them sneaking into an issue of Legion?

Great site! Tell Agnes I love her Minis commissions-- so cute! She should see if either company would be interested in giving her work in their kids' lines... [Smile]

Another wonderful issue Francis, I'm loving your art on this book. It really makes this book pop and certainly adds a lot of energy to the already frantic script. SaM is definitely turning into a great ride and I can't wait till next month.

I like your use of a glowing line around the Legionnaires to denote their flight rings eco-shield, it certainly adds some pop and color to this book. Also, really enjoyed the shot of Garth with his collar open on his uniform. I've always imagined it would be uncomfortable to relax in those costumes, so I like the touch of showing us that they can be loosened up.

Question, who did the designs for the applicants? I ask because Fruit Boy ROCKED! I just love his classic legion reject look.

Long Live the Legion!

thanks guys! and yeah agnes' mini's are really cute. she's actually contributing to the hulk 100 thing for hero, and it looks adorable, make sure to check out her blog!

steph- thanks glad you enjoyed the issue, I've designed all the new characters you've seen and will be seeing in the book. Even the ones that are in the fill in. And yeah Fruit Boy is great! he's kinda the most classic looking hero of the group.

thanks as well titan lad, the book will be out tomorrow but in the meanwhile you can check out my blog for a preview!

cheers guys!

You are such a great artist Francis. It is because of your art that I started collecting LoSH. They should make a poster out of the 2 covers for #37. I would definitely buy it!

Your Saturn Girl is gorgeous. Best Irma ever!

I would love to see you draw Dream Girl. Is she appearing in any future issues?

thanks askanipsion! I think there was a mini poster of that which was given out to retailers..more of a promo poster though rather than a poster poster....
As for DreamGirl, I'm actually not sure when I'll get to draw her.. Jim is pacing it out nicely so everyone gets some time to shine but hopefully soon!

Great job on the work! Clean, consistent, very well done!

A couple questions, if you don't mind...

1) When you draw, what music do you listen to, if any?

2) What kind of pens do you use? I'm curious if I could get a hold of some stuff.

Keep up the great work!
