Here you go rhino.

What a varied group of men!
They don't seem to fit a mold, at all.
Shooter certainly hasn't aged.
(Joke, just a joke.)
Is that a recent pic of Paul?
It sort of looks like it might be.

Thanks for posting these. This thread provides a a great perspective on the history of the Legion.
Win Mortimer!!! He looks just as groovy as I hoped he would! Look at that darlin' pencil-thin Ed Wood/John Waters 'stache!!
Shady, that's Paul's Facebook picture, I think it's very recent.
Thanks for the Mortimer pic, Lone Wolf!!

Gene Colan & Ernie Colon
1. Garcia-Lopez looks like my uncle.
2. I love Google!!
Um, guys, this might sound mean, and I am not sure if I'm correct, but does Gene Colan have any eyesight issues?
When I met him at Comic Book Marketplace, his left eye looked funny. Well, one of them did.

I remember Gene was hospitalized earlier this year after being assaulted by his wife. I don't know if that resulted in an injury to his left eye though.

So far the only ones missing are, George Papp, Pete Costanza and Jimmy Janes, and what of Editors like Mort Weisinger and Inkers like Murphy Anderson, who had a huge impact on the books at the time they were working on them.

One of his eyes, that's what I meant. Ugh, I hate when I'm confusing by accident.

There's also Waid and Kitson, DnA, Coipel, Mark Farmer and Alan Davis, Cinar, Portella, and others.
Or do you have their pictures somewhere else?
I know there are many more, I'm just trying to do them in order. There's still more to come!
Nope, I forgot her! Just for that, she gets a post all to herself!!

You found a photo of Jimmy Janes!?!
You ROCK, LWL!!
Hey Rhino, I found Jim Janes on facebook, noticed he had a mutual friend who used to work in comics, so I checked his page out and sure enough it was The Jimmy Janes, this is his profile picture, Super Nice Guy!
Cool!! We need to get him to join the LW Facebook page.
Cool photos of Gerry Conway & Roger Stern, two of the best writers (and IMHO, two of the most under-appreciated) ever in this industry.
Daniel HDR
hey who are you missing right now?
Francis Portela
heh a class clown!
hey you have not answered my question - who are the missing artists now that you need to find?
I can't remember. I think we're only missing a few artists who have only done one story.
Pete Woods
I'd totes do Senor Woods!!
Francis Portela, Yildiray Cinar & Daniel HDR.
I want to hang out with them too. *pouts*

If I ever critique his work I'll make sure to be super nice
I liked Janes work, believe it or not. It was put down a little at the time, but I think it just needed the right inker on it. Still worked for me.
Janes was my favorite Legion artist after Grell or possibly Sherman. That's not saying much since the Legion had a lot of unsuitable artists in between. But Janes was a more-than-competent draftsman whose style was clean and appealing, albeit too conventionally super-heroic for the Legion.
Still, he provided a nice bridge between what came before and Broderick and Giffen, who took the Legion to the next level.
So did Yildiray start to age at a super-accelerated rate after we got hold of him? He looks kinda' tired there. Was that the "before Legion" or "after Legion" shot?
That was the "Too Many Black Russians" shot.
<span style="font-size: 9px;">Just kidding. I have no idea if Yildiray drinks or not.</span>
The Legion had it's fair share of outstanding Inkers as well
Bob McLeod, Bob Wiacek, Bruce Patterson, Larry Mahlstedt, Karl Kesel, Dave Hunt and Joe Rubinstein come to mind.
