Description
I owe a Thank You to Michael Leib & Michael Finn for pointing me in the direction of David Wachter. He is very talented . He did this whole thing in just under 2 weeks and I picked it up in person at the Baltimore Con. I highly recommend him to others seeking comissions...

As for the cover itself.. This is based on the story from Superboy & the Legion of Superheroes issue 259, when Superboy leaves ( after discovering how his parents will eventually die )and the Legion gain their independent title. We modeled that after the cover of Teen Titans issue #14.

Dave really captures the somber mood beautifully with wash/inks.

Great choice. This is my favorite issue of he original run. I love the Adams issues but this is such an emotional story. I thought Perez was on the mark when he used it as the basis for the Secret Origin issue that featured the Titans.

It was the Perez Secret Origins Annual that led me to this tale years ago and it just resonated with me .

This is a great piece and it was really a pleasure to see this departure from Dave's typical ink wash style up close. Congrats!

Very powerful image---love the 'ghostly' Legionnaires looking down on Superboy. This story represented a coming-of-age for the Superboy and the Legion, and this cover encapsulates the theme perfectly. Kudos for an incredible piece by a great talent!
