Description

Before there was even the idea of plotting out an enormous multi-part, multi-series epic like "Infinite Timelines " there simply was Re-Legion. I would take one cover and give it the Legion twist. This was one of the first covers I stumbled upon way back when and it has laid patiently waiting for its moment in the sun. The Mdlle Marie image was so striking that I knew it would be perfect for this story and John Watson proved me right.

Our heroine is now sadly, a self-fulfilling prophecy. Broken by the Trapper & Universo she returns to the Legion who try to restrain her from hurting them or herself. The very moment that they do so drives home to Duo that the Trapper & Universo were right all along. And the descent into darkness continues...

John again decided to do a color version and did an amazing job

Russ did a great job with it as he always does
Enjoy
Aidan

Slave-driver ! We are back to our regular programming . Even Infinite Timelines must pause for wedding bells ( not mine !). The original cover had so much power & emotional punch, it was a lock for this series. It was a long time coming but worth the wait

That is nice....thanks for keeping an eye out for me. To give you advance, there will be no posting the weekend of the Baltimore Comic Con in September as John & I will be there, ( hoping to meet other CAF'ers )but I can double up postings between this and then.

Wow, you actually homage a cover I don't remember ever seeing before! That's rare! Watson continues to knock these out of the park. He's too talented.

I just love where you find inspiration. Plus, John Watson absolutely knocks them out of the park for you.

Very intense cover and I see I'm not the only once to sense the Kubert look.
