And I’m with you Shaggg. I thought Legends was a good series.

And I love Firestorm in that picture you posted. He should have been closer to the front though, so we got a better view of him.

Fan the Flame.

I’m terrible about following tumblr feeds, but I at least make an effort to keep up with blogs. They recently did an interview with Mark Badger on the ’88 Martian Manhunter mini that I need to read in full.

Yo– Shag– Legends podcast?

That ad is awesome! Man I love his art, I wonder if he inked himself here, or if it had Kesel inking him (inker of the legends series) or if it was Beatty inking him like he did so often on covers and interiors. Maybe even Jerry the Extraordinary Ordway? He did ink Byrne for a while on Fantastic Four.

Thanks for sharing Shag!

Is that Robin back in the background, back behind Elongated Man? Dick Grayson or…Jason Todd! blech (strike two)

No Cosmic Boy? (strike three, and you’re out!)

And…once I noticed Superman’s oddly shaped crotch I couldn’t NOT notice it. STRIKE FOUR I’M OUTTA HERE!

Not sure the images origins. Might check with those 80s bloggers listed.

If you dig Doctor Fate (and everyone should cause he’s awesome!), then check out the TOWER OF FATE blog! http://toweroffate.blogspot.com/

Such fertile soil for DC at that time. A bunch of comics were born from this.

And what a splendid ad, I don’t recall it at all. Was it from an Amazing Heroes preview special?
