Hi Guys
Just pencils and inks this month - I think my thumbnails would probably end all the speculation I'm enjoying [tease]

Hope you like the scans!

Thanks Barry! Beautiful work as always!

My new guesses for the background quad are Supergirl, Cosmic Boy, Dream Girl (with her new look) and Brainiac 5.

Thanks Barry.

As though there is less things on the cover than usual, it must have been harder than the other to do this one, that must represent a lot of work.

How do you do to do those effects with all these lines? you pencilled them one by one?

Gorgeous. Feel like I need a thesaurus each month just to describe how beautiful you work is Barry.

And I agree with NC about who we are seeing. I originally thought the mystery hero may have been Sunboy but it definitely looks like Lar stepping out of a Phantom Zone projector.

Thanks!
It's all done by hand...in fact Mick (Gray) did say he was a bit relieved I hadn't asked him to ink it! [Smile]

dream Girl? looks like Vi to me. I see Saturn Girl next to Supergirl....not Cosmic Boy. Hmm Hmm ARGH!! how can the speculation end? Looking at the bright side, MOn-El!!! YEAAAAAHHHH! !!!! about time!

Now...next to come : bouncing Boy please.

I agree with Scott and Gary , i think its Kara, Rokk, Nura and Brainy.

It'd make sense b/c Kara/Rokk and Nura/Brainy are kinda couples. If not Nura its either Vi (who's Igor to Brainy's Dr. Frankenstein) or Imra (who did a lot of the work to free Mon-El from prison in another time and place)

Hey, for the first time I prefer the inked version to the pencils. [Big Grin]

Thanks for sharing Barry, I'm like Scott running out of new ways to say Wow!

Definitely a Phantom Zone Projector, or Mr. Kitson has constructed a shiny explosion thingy just to toy with us. I RESENT all the glee he gets from speculating on these cover images! Stupid previews!

Wow! Another great cover. Your covers are the best in the history of the Legion - and that's something with the Farmer/Davis and Swan art of the past!

Thanks again, Mr. Kitson, for the previews and insights!

Wow! That's a huge compliment, Kid Quislet - thanks so much! [Big Grin]

Sorry Doublechinner...

Hi Faraway Lad - I have to agree the pencil version isn't quite as finished as it usually is - even I couldn't face blacking in all the areas in pencil - [Big Grin]

Another great cover,Barry!
Thanks again for giving us a peek at the creative process behind the finished artwork.
The final inks reminds me of my favorite artist - Virgil Finlay.
