This is me doing my best Paul Ryan impression based on the Update 89 profile. I scanned the original linework a guide, gave him his helmented look and tried to match the original colors. The first time I encounted Emil here, he had black & red armor from a bad scan of Dragon Magazine. I made a version of that which I will post later.

Not many people are chiming in about the Icarus One astronauts or Old Soldier. I have  thoughts, but ...

1: If you loved the series, why?

2: If you didn't, what three things would you change?

We all know the Squadron is based on many of the Justice League archtypes, but which archetypes do you think they are missing?

Blue Beetle
Booster Gold
Shazam / Captain Marvel
Guy Gardner

There's already a Swamp Thing aluded to (ala New World Order), but I'd love to hear your thoughts.

This is sort of a cheat. I spent over 12 hours working on this Magdalene piece, most of which was trying to get the top of her staff right, but sometimes, you can just over-render something and call it a day. (I had the pose I loved from Power Princess and re-dressed it)

Inspired by Big Barda, Magdalene was a member of the Avengers and played a big part in The Gathering storyline. She teamed-up with the Squadron to fight Imus Champion. While not a member of the Squadron, she was a short-team ally and the one closest to other classic Justice League members.
