Echo

The interesting thing about this drawing is I didn't know Echo was a villain until I was done drawing it. I've researched it afterwords and found out the truth. I have a folder with a whole bunch of Legionnaires reference to complete my mission to draw every Legionnaire ever. I've found echo there and the design seemed interesting to explore. I was under the impression he was a hero. Oh well...
The scoop, the first Echo was a villain who was an enemy of Lee Travis, the Crimson Avenger. He debuted in March 1941 in Detective Comics # 49.
The second Echo (this drawing) debuted in Adventure Comics # 355 in April 1967 as a member of the Legion of Super Villains from the Khundish planet Calish-Aelita. 
The post Crisis Echo was an interim member of the Legion of Super Heroes during the five years later storyline. 
The BG credits go to Scribblebian for Music Video. I've added some elements to blended all.
Life goes on, until next Legionnaire.

Particon


Particon is a young hero in the 31st Century who can wield and manipulate magenta-colored energy. A former member of Leland McCauley's Workforce. she's now joined the Uncanny Amazers.
I realized from now on it's nothing but obscure characters galore since I've already done the main characters. The BG it's from a Wallpaper HD website. 
Even when time it's a luxury I can't afford, I'll do my best to post a legionnaire here and there.
Cheers

Dr. Strange



Dr. Strange opens this weekend and I felt compelled to do some strange art.
Beyond the fact that time it's an illusion, it's also a luxury I can't afford, so I've tried to be economical and re-used an old drawing, flopped it and added new FX to match the latest movie coming out today. You can see that old post in this blog under Dr. Strange vs. Dr. Fate.
I known the character since I was 10 from reading the Dr. Strange Marvel Comics. That was the first time I've heard about an out-of-body experience and mysticism. Later in life I found out it was based in real spirituality and philosophy that became very helpful in general. 
I keep hearing so many good things about this film, can't wait to see it tonight.
Namaste

Harmonia


Harmonia Li is a member of the Legion of Super Heroes, originally from Earth, specifically from China. Her true age is unknown, though she tends to speak of herself as if she is centuries old. At some point in the past, Harmonia's wisdom allowed her to live in a place called Utopia where the wisest and immortal lived. Her elemental powers originated from an unknown source or perhaps she was born with them. 
I don't know the name of the background artist, otherwise it would be here. It seemed utopiesque enough for this piece. I've changed it just a tad.
It feels great to draw whatever I like, specially Legionnaires. As much as I am grateful beyond words about my full time job, it limits my free time to draw Legionnaires. 
Til next Legion time folks.

Molecular Master


Molecular Master had the ability to resize atoms and molecules. He tried to join the Legion of Super Heroes before it was learned that he was actually a robot sent to steal a machine in the LSH lair. 
For the BG I've combined and retouched two backgrounds from Enc Arregado and Joakimolofsson-d5eklyj, visit their deviant art pages.
I wanted to do a tribute to one comic panel featuring the Molecular Master from way back in the day.
I was influenced by the art of Otto Schmidt and Robert Valley for this one. 
Hope you Legion fans like it.
Cheers

Shikari


Shikari is a superheroine in the future of the DC Comics universe and a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes. She was created by Dan Abnett, Andy Lanning and Olivier Coipel and first appeared in Legion Lost # 1. Shikari is a member of the Kwai, a nomadic race of humanoid insects who live in the "Second Galaxy". Shikari can find a path to any object or area, if such a path exists. This power can also be used to see through illusions. She also has an armored, retractable exoskeleton, and can remain active indefinitely in a vacuum.
I know it's been a little over a year since I post any Legion fan art, it's been crazy. Way to many personal life situations to deal with. Regardless I wanted to do at least one piece to honor Comic Con.
Thanks to all Legion fans for the fan mail asking me for more, it's encouraging and inspiring.
Cheers
