Having the new LSH book launch from the white-hot TEEN TITANS can ONLY be a good thing and help sales.
DOOM PATROL and LSH might finally get to be big sellers again after their exposure in JLA and TEEN TITANS.

I *know* it's just a teaser but ....
Poor Triad's being blasted by Mano on the lower left
Ferro's in trouble and so is Gates
No Jo? uh, oh
No Dreamer? Double uh, oh
Validus (upper right) is holding someone in his right hand. Hopefully that's really Lyle below Violet's right arm.
What's that green lizard thingy below Superboy's left armpit?
October and November will be AGONIZING.

- What's that green lizard thingy below Superboy's left armpit? In order: - looks like Triad neutral in a *new* outfit! (Orange and Purple are above) - I think that's Dreamer just under Starfire. - Yeah, definitely looks like Lyle to me. - I think that's Beast Boy as an alligator. What I can't help but notice is that Wildfire is still in his Coipel designed suit (despite the prelim sketch Lightle did of Wildfire in his old suit (which I didn't really think was going to happen anyway)).

Looks like M'Onel is back in his garish starfield costume  Other than that, that is one fantastic cover!

Not to me -- it might be an error in art, but it's not quite Coipel's design -- the sleeves are skin tight with apparent gloves and the there's a line that runs down the arms. Coipel's design has those wide sleeves that end midforearm with no gloves. There are also thigh-high boots where Coipel's design doesn't have that - just loose fitting pants that seem to connect to her shoes.

I'm disappointed that Chris and Chip aren't doing the interior art. They should have been given the chance at a last hurrah. It would have made this fan very happy.

I still find it amusing that they talk about a "crisis that only the Titans and the Legion can handle."
No disrespect to the Titans, but please. The LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, 20 some-odd of the DCU's most powerful heroes, need the help of Young Justice? As what? Cheerleaders?
Oh well. As long as nobody dies, I guess nothing's THAT bad.

Oh come on 'binder. Everyone knows you need a green skinned hero who can change into animals to balance the orange skinned one who can change into animals.  Let's see, we have: Superboy = M'onel Starfire = Wildfire (?) Robin = Karate Kid Kid Flash = XS Changling = Chameleon Wonder Girl = Andromeda Cyborg = Gear I didn't include Raven because I'm still not really sure she officially rejoined nor do I think she'll still be around after the next issue's conclusion. So while I love my two favorite 80's books finally getting a non-Elseworlds crossover I agree. What do the Titans really offer that the Legion doesn't already have in spades?

The ONLY thing I can think of is Wonder Girl's connection to the gods. Maybe that's the key.

Sheesh! Obviously the answer is that whoever is causing the crisis will instantly recognize that the Titans have a higher selling book than the Legion and give up!

What about her precog abilities? You'd have to toss Dreamer into that combo.
And I hadn't spotted her on the cover. Damn thing is too hard on my bad eyes to look at too closely.

Does Raven still have healing abilities? Hey, we've always got Dr. Gym'll. He may be crabby, but at least Trigon's not his old man.

Can anyone verify what timeline I should be planning my life around...
When it is said that the Legion of Super-Heroes re-launch is coming in December, does that actually mean December or does it mean the December issue, which would be out in October?

Awk, it's likely it means IN December, giving us 2 months without THE LEGION.

So I don't see Mordecai on the cover. I wonder if that version of the Fatal 5 will be featured. Or how about the Empress's all girl (except Persuader) Fatal 5?
