Description

The presentation & revelation to the world of Supergirl's existence and the subsequent celebrations seemed a good fit to round off this three part story.

The great Image of Superboy returning to the Legion , by George Perez in Issue 280 served also as an inspirational great cover to bring back the Super-cousins to the Legion in our imaginary Outcasts Saga tale.

John Watson fit them all in with incredible care and patience. Just as in the other 2 covers of this imaginary 3 part story ..Krypto & Streaky make an appearance along with the Subs. This trilogy cover project has been a labour of love and John Watson both as an artist and as a Legion fan himself, was the perfect person for this commission.

Enjoy
Aidan

Thanks..there are so many cool Legion that still can be told...it's a fun project especially since DC put the Legion on hiatus. John Watson is not only a talented artist but is a HUGE Legion fan and it shows ...

Another one of my favorites in your collection.  I am a HUGE fan of Krypto and Streaky.  Action Comics 277 (Battle of the Super Pets) is one of my favorite books.  I like this cover lots better than the Action 285 cover it is based on.  Major congrats!
