The ComicBloc has a good, long, interview with Adam DeKraker. He talks about his past work on the Legion and his upcoming fill-in issue (#20). DeKraker also mentions he has done work on a Legion/Titans card set which must mean the previous announced expansion for the Vs Card System.

Below is a look at two pages featured in the interview from SLoSH #20. So, spoiler space...

Nice team splash. Once colored that could make a nice poster.


I take pride in my mental instability.
Go! Figure

No sign of Dream Girl or Dream Boy either. Nineteen Legionnaires though. The page does look nice. I just hope the inker/colorist does it justice.

Very nice, lots of action in that first page with the U.P. delegates (looks like them anyways). No Dream people, but B5 hasn't been jailed for desecration of a corpse.

DeKraker made an interesting point about getting to know the characters before the artwork really comes together. These panels look great.

A Cosmic Boy focus issue on the way? I would have thought that would be the all text issue... tongue


Holy Cats of Egypt!

Not bad. I still wish his Kara was prettier.

DeKraker said:

"what’s happening to his character [Cosmic Boy] in this issue—it’s quite funny and sweet"

Maybe this is where we find out who his huge secret crush is!

Does that look like a stylized "I" on Lyle torso to anyone else?


"Hey Jim! Get Mon out of the Zone!! And...when do we get Condo back?"

The team splash page looks like it's copied from ... oh, all right, inspired by ... Dave Cockrum's recent original cover for the Legion Companion book.

Or maybe all these team splash pages start to look similar, after 25 years of being a Legion fan {sigh}

Anyway, who said capes are out of (future) style? This guy makes them look good!

These are the preview pages I saw inked by Mick Gray at a local con a few weeks back.

<span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">It is! Or at least it certainly looked that way when it was inked! I said something like "Oh so Invisible Kid finally gets a costume?" and he replied that he often didn't actually know what was going on in the issues nowadays because the process of creating comics was such that he no longer gets to read the pages he inking.</span></span>

Mick also says that he doesn't often ink the starfields now and that they're digitally filled in/colored instead.

I've been a fan of DeKraker's art since his fill-ins way back on THE TITANS.

Plus he's real cute!
