I was going to. Ah hell, here it is without the Lone Star writing.
I had totally forgotten I got my site reloaded this weekend or I could have just posted the image to #38 for you all too. I've got all the Vol. 3 covers, including annuals, at my site.

Thanks, Scott. The covers to 45 and 50 were my favorites from Steacy's cover run-- and incidentally, were the only actual fully-painted illos. The others were a mix of media, usually along the lines of pastels or colored pencils, it looks like.
Here's the cover for #50, the showdown with the Trapper:

Somehow I had it in my head that Steacy had done #38. Poignant! Even more so when paired with the optimism of the more traditional #37, from a certain fan fave.

I don't know if it's the chest hair or what, but Hawkman's been looking pretty, y'know, sexy on the last two covers. (Y'know?)

Your shop does NOT carry Hawkman?!?!? I can't believe that! Tell that manager to order Hawkman or ELSE! Hawkman is a pretty decent book to read! Love that book now! Is your shop Anti-Geoff Johns or just anti-Hawkman?

Good question. I never seem to be able to get a copy of JSA either. Isn't Johns still writing that?
Actually, they aren't too big on DC. They focus more on Marvel and the independent titles. I'll have to investigate further.

*gasp* *drop jaw* no JSA!?!? oh boy.....what about the Flash? and Teen Titans? Do they sell them as well? All titles are written by Geoff Johns.

I was able to get the first issue of The Flash that started the last storyline, where they reintroduced the Reverse Flash but that was it. And I only got Teen Titans as the third printing and haven't seen a copy beyond issue number one.

my god...I can't believe that. Anyhooo.....about the Hawkman covers....I can't help pondering that the bottom one (Hawkman and Gargoyle in raining) should be definitely made into a Poster! beautiful poster...best one ever...hate to admit that it is better than Alex Ross. Sorry, no offense.

[Lightning Lad, about Sienkiewicz's "LSH" v3 n38 art] { I seem to remember Grey trying to win that cover art when it went up for bid on eBay last year. I can't remember how much it went for but it was in the mid 4 figures I think. }
Yep, the framed painting ended up going for well over $1000. Got far too rich for me to pursue it, despite its being even more dramatic without the Legion logo and title. And its being the best Dawnstar cover, best Superboy cover, and best damn Legion cover ever, period.

I entirely second the praise of the painted "Hawkman" covers above. Here, to give some time to the gorgeous women, are issues 15 and 16. (I can't find 16 to actually buy anywhere. A bit frustrating to be teased with all this art at the DC site, but nice to have it.)

What's to be sorry for? I think these covers are amazing and definitely better than some of Ross' work. Ross has a tendency to stick too closely to the real world, imo. Sometimes it looks too much like some guy posing in his studio in a home-made superhero costume.
