Let me slip into something more comfortable...

Here we have a very happy and not at all shy co-ed changing her top. I really like how she came out. I will probably use her in a future CILM package. In color of course. Thanks Terry for the commission. This is ink on 11" x 17" Canson Bristol Board. 
The latest Legion Couple (Threesome?) is Bouncing Boy (Chuck Taine) and Duo Damsel (Luornu Durgo). Luornu had previously been able to split into three individuals but one of them was killed in battle with Computo, leaving her a duo. Chuck and Luornu were the first Legion couple to get married. For real. There were other stories where some Legionnaires got married as part of a ruse. But this one took place and stuck. This scene takes place in the Legion HQ courtyard. A variation on a scene that took place in Superboy and The Legion of Super-Heroes #200. In the same issue they were married. This is done in ink, watercolor, and gouache on 11"x 17" illustration board.

Gene,

Both postings are great, especially the cutie!

Concerning the Legion, do you read the current Legion comic?

Thank Gary. I tried reading the Legion with the Waid/Kitson reboot but it left me cold. From what I understand, Jim Shooters run has been really good. But I haven't tried it and now I read that it's over with issue 50. I loved Geoff Johns Superman story featuring the Legion. That was the Legion I know. I'm hoping they will be on top after the Legion of 3 Worlds mini is over. Not reading that right now either, waiting for the trade. Long winded answer, sorry. :)

As I mentioned earlier, Bouncing Boy got the best end of the pairing up of the Legionaires! :)

I am really enjoying this Legion sereis and will be somewhat sad when it ends, but my Showcase presents the Legion Vol 2 is ready and waiting on my bookshelf!
