. . . all 2 of you
Big Kyle fan.
But here's the new mask.
Written World takes it on in "Why can't poor Kyle ever cut a break?"
The author of that post remains optimistic: "And I'm almost positive that face obscuration is not a mask, but [weird] lighting. I hope." (ha ha)

Hmm, can't say I like it. Not even an improvement over that hideous crab face thing.
you got another one in the mail, but i dunno what we've been doing with the other ones. ....
i liked brick.
where did kyle's mouth go?
yeah that's the worse part. you would think they'd be able to do better than the crab one. . . but nooo. maybe it'll grow on us? maybe not.
For someone who is (or at least was) a comic book artist/graphic designer, Kyle has always had sucky costumes.
I'm definetly not digging the Ion costume, the mask in particular reminds me too much of Captain Marvel/Photon.
On the plus side, the preview art (which isn't too good, actually, but that was months before the coloring was finished. I'd advise a flip through in the LCS) shows him with a regular mask. I don't know why the covers show such icky stuff.
i remember seeing those pages. . . but then the covers often show the Big Thing of the issue. . . and maybe the Big Thing is Kyle's appropriation of that mask, the one that, as Jim pointed out, once again refuses to answer the if-Kyle-is-an-artist. . .? question.
Did you read the Rann-Thanagar War Special yet? It's where he gets the new costume. I'm not sure he had much of a choice in the "masks" this time.
man oh man. going to college has totally cut me off from the comic world. i'm getting on the subway right now and hanging out at the comic shop until i figure out wtf is going on. thanks for the heads up! :)
