For what it's worth, JB, I've always loved these covers.





You even made "Disco Nightwing" look good--as did George Pérez, who
created the look, but, I swear, you guys are the only ones who made that
outfit look good!

I didn't know these! Fantastic covers!!!

I think I read JB's Doom Patrol origin story a zillion times back in the day!

One has to wonder about a Doom Patrol vs. Alpha Flight comission!

Gorgeous.  My favorite is the second one with the ghosts looking over the graves.  Powerful work.

WOW, never seen those.  I have the LSH and JLA ones.  Didn't know there was a Doom Patrol edition.

That first cover reminds me of a question I've had for the members here:

Which Madame Rouge outfit do you like - The classic black bodysuit, or the George Perez blue body "armor"?

(For the record, mine was "none of the above", since I prefer the one seen in the final issue of the original DP, which was revisited by JB on both his DP run and as a commission in 2010. ;) )

I honestly like it best when she didn't wear a costume at all...

She feels more like a spy without the costume...

The armor doesn't work for me. It looks like she's a robot...
