 Many of my favorite bits of JB's FF stories were his stories that spotlighted the love between Reed and Sue.

Lightning Lad and Saturn Girl have been married, unmarried, and
married to a shape-changing intelligent pet since Crisis. (Yeah, turns
out Lightning Lad wasn't raised from the dead, but Proty(?) Mind/soul
was transfered into Lightning Lad.)

Kip - I don't think any of the 5 Years Later stories are in present continuity.

I'm almost shocked to see DC finagling on the Wonder Woman pants issue. Here's another image of the JLA by Ivan Reis. Great art, but damn if all the extra lines in the costumes aren't just asinine.

The extra lines make the costumes more realistic.  Or so I've been told.

The Bierbaum run on Legion is why I always feel a twinge of nervousness when I read about an incoming creative team talking about how much they've loved the character(s) over the years... 

(And yeah, Steven, all of that appears to have been wiped from continuity.  Sadly, memory lives on...)

In the Jim Lee pic, Superman looks like he's in his early 20's. In the David Finch pic, Superman looks like he's in his late 30's. 

In the Jim Lee pic, Wonder Woman looks like a woman. In the David Finch pic, Wonder Woman looks like Wonder Girl as a brunette. 

Will they have time to fix that before going to print/uploading to the 'net? Will they care? Probably not to both.

I love the Blue Beetle and the rest of the Action Heroes, but after
everything that has happened to them, I would have rather seen them
live forever in the pages of Watchmen.

Could you imagine a Dave Gibbons Blue Beetle? Ahh...

To me, Finch's grim and mirthless image of the JLA is the direst portent of this relaunch.

Whoa...

Either Lana is cruel or she needs some hot loving from the man of steel something urgent.

Superman's hanging over the JLA like the grim reaper in that Finch picture.

Also...why isn't Cyborg in it?
