Earth 2 Update + Power Girl & Huntress!

[xBarryxAllenx]

Wow, do we have updates! The covers to Earth 2 and Worlds' Finest are now out, and there's a lot to discuss in both!

Earth 2 features NEW E-2 versions of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman on the cover. These are much younger versions than the JSA versions I read about in the 1960s, and at least one source (see the Bleeding Cool link below) has a theory that this could be E-2 versions of Superboy, Dick Grayson, and...wait for it...Donna Troy as grown-ups! We'll see if that turns out or not. But, we already have been told that we'll see Jay Garrick, Alan Scott and Ted Grant - the question now becomes whether we will see them as older men or as young early-career versions now. Obviously we have a LOT of questions...and I simply cannot wait to see what this turns out to be!

As for Worlds' Finest - we see a somewhat more modest costume for Power Girl (no "window", but still a great costume), and background images indicating they may be the Supergirl and...ROBIN of Earth 2!

SO....What do YOU think? Do these covers have you ready to run to your LCS? Or, do you have a different take? Please add your thoughts below!

Eh...can't say I have much interest so far. But I never got into Earth-2 to begin with, and don't think DC should have brought it back. I'd really rather see missing characters like Jay and Power Girl as part of Earth Prime (or whatever they're calling the main reality now).
