Last week, I picked up the second issue of Geoff Johns’ and Gary Frank’s wonderful re-imagining of Superman’s origin story, SUPERMAN: SECRET ORIGINS. At the end of the first issue, young Clark’s (looking to be around 14) red-booted foot is shown on the stair step of the Kent home in Smallville. His ...

Or – “They Also Serve Those Who Only Stand And Wait Get Retconned After Twelve Issues…” It’s a sad truth of the Legion of Super-Heroes that many readers consider them (in the words of my pal Otter Disaster) “an inside joke that I don’t get.” That confusion is understandable, given my own questions o ...

How could I let a week go by without featuring the big names of the Legion? Today, it’s Gene’s take on Saturn Girl. I always thought her costume should look like shiny pink latex instead of a flat color. I think I will color this one digitally and try to get that look. And here is the [...]

He’s a great character and rendered well by Gonzales, and thanks to 52, we now know where the Emerald Eye of Ekron came from. The Empress ...

Our Gene Gonzales/Legion of Super Heroes theme continues this week, with a look at Duo Damsel. Seems appropriate, since yesterday’s entry featured Computo. Now I’m sure the Legion fans here know that her real name is Luornu Durgo. And that she originally had the power like all those from her planet, ...

You probably guessed after seeing the last two days worth of Art Appreciation Moment entries, that I’m focusing on Gene Gonzales this week. Why? I like his style, and I think he doesn’t get enough attention – especially when he is drawing the Legion of Super-Heroes. So why not take the jump and get ...
