This is a fantastic Legion cover and one of my favorite issues. Cardy knocked this one out of the park. Congrats!

All of these lines across the page
Tell you the story of who I am
Nick Cardy stories of One Man Team
And how art got to where Outcast
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got Legion to Execute
It's true, art was meant for you

I climbed across the auction tops
Ran all across the headshots too
I saw all the lines and I broke all the rules
But Miki, I broke them all for you
Oh, because Legion, when I was flat broke
Your Cardy feels like a million bucks
You do, and art was meant for you

Now this is FUN in its truest sense! How can anyone not love and be drawn in by the "executioners" panel? That's awesome, such a cool concept! Naturally you're happy that Supergirl also makes an appearance and for a big fan like yourself, I get it! I'm just as happy to see the "young Mike Grell" cameo art! I also get a kick out of the over the top silliness of the "one man team" baseball panel. All of this, created by the premiere cover artis t of the 1970's at DC, makes for a very special piece to have in your collection. Kudos, Miki!

Sweet  I think this was my 2nd or 3rd issue I had bought of the Legion after I started collecting comics.  I loved those 100 page comics.  Congrats on such a great piece of art.

Great cover by Nick.  It's too bad that he didn't draw a few Legion stories.  He probably would've had to learn all the characters but he definitely would've drawn the most wholesome LSH of the 1970's.

Oh my!  What a nostalgic cover!  Absolutely stumming and with Supergirl in uniform as a Legionnaire!  Oh my!
