Description
Published 2009
Features Astrid Storm-Daughter, a goddess that aligned herself with Starro.
Going against the R.E.B.E.L.S. proves to be fatal when she encounters Lobo.

This cover is from the second R.E.B.E.L.S. series.
The first series originated from the L.E.G.I.O.N. (Licensed Extra-Governmental Interstellar Operatives Network) series.
These series center around Vril Dox (Brainiac 2), the clone of Braniac, who leads the team. Vril is the great grandfather of Querl Dox (Brainiac 5) of the Legion of Super-Heroes.
Vril is forced to form R.E.B.E.L.S. (Revolutionary Elite Brigade to Eradicate L.E.G.I.O.N. Supremacy) when his son Lyrl rebels against him and takes over the L.E.G.I.O.N. team.

Impressive cover, not just because of the figure at the center of it, but due to the very detailed Starro-possessed aliens behind her.

Ditto! But, I don't think they're all aliens. Isn't that Hawkman right there on the right hand side?

Based on the metallic wings, I think it's a Thanagarian. Carter Hall had more natural-looking wings at that time.

All day starin' at the cover, makin'
Friends with comments so oddball
All right, Drawing Benes tellin' me
That I should get Astrid
Because Storm-Daughter might be good for somethin'
Hold on, feelin' like I'm headed for a breakdown
And Lobo knows why

But I'm not L.E.G.I.O.N., I'm just a little R.E.B.E.L.
I know, right now Vril can't tell
But Starro while and maybe then Lyrl see
A L.E.G.I.O.N. side of me

I'm not crazy, I'm just a R.E.B.E.L. impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But Rob Hunter you're gonna ink of me
How DC named the teams

Striking. The handling of perspective, the emphasis given the main figure while not neglecting background figjures or architecture. Congrats.
