Teenage boys can get pretty girl-crazy, so this isn't a bad plan by The Enchantress to overpower these LSHers. Something tells me that the female members of the Legion aren't going to let this situation stand for long - that is, if they aren't distracted swooning after Thor!
Fantastic cover today, it would be a silver age delight full of pouty faced female Legionaires no doubt. Enchantress is a missed opportunity in the MCU. She's a great villian although her main notice, husband/man-catching, are a bit dated today. The Legion is probably can't be translated to a modern movie, maybe a tv series where you can sirens more time on the characters and world building.
ReplyDeleteConsidering Chuck and Triplet Girl, there may already be a weak spot in Amora's plan. I am still a big fan of the Legion and this cover reminds me of why. Beautiful work Ross.
ReplyDeleteThis is obviously before she first met (or is it regained?) her soul mate, King Arthur 3K.
ReplyDeleteStill, I applaud the background research you did for your cutting and pasting! Is the LSH cover that originally featured Psyche of the Wanderers having the same effect?
Nope. They were all swooning over Dream Girl (in her intro story).
ReplyDeleteSaturn Girl also would have some ability to counter Amora's scheme.
ReplyDelete@Tobor: That's Triplicate Girl, and I think that by the time she and Chuck started dating she'd been reduced to Duo Damsel.
Loved the Legion - the original incarnation, so I really like this. But the title is just inspired - it's the first title that's ever got me singing along it...
ReplyDeleteBut, wait, I hear Enchantress chiming in on the chorus...
"Once you have found them,
never let them go."
I wonder what Jim Corrigan (the Spectre's best-known host body) would look like as a 31st century Science Policeman?
ReplyDeleteNow that would be a ritzy secret identity of The Spectre having a host body of Space Ghost
ReplyDeleteGood choice of Marvel characters, as Thor and Amora could indeed still be alive in the 30th Century, without needing time machines or sorcery. ^_^
ReplyDeleteGlorith (playing the role of the Time Trapper for a few years) more or less wanted to do the same thing to Valor (Mon-El's code name for those same few years), but he wouldn't consent to villainy and she wouldn't reform, so no go.
Nice one!
ReplyDeleteYou know you could help in this situation? Jughead Jones.
As Capt. Hero...or the swashbuckling time-traveler who's crushed on by Archie Andrews' female descendant?
ReplyDeleteHow about Daredevil and The Question?
ReplyDeleteOr, failing that, how about Spider-man and Judge Parker?
ReplyDeleteHow about Shang Chi vs. Shang Tsung and Quan Chi?
