When Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning took over the 'LEGION OF SUPER HEROES' franchise at 'DC COMICS' in 1999, they brought with them a relatively unknown artist named OLIVIER COIPEL. His style of art, more moody and scratchy then many 'LEGION' fans were used to, instantly became a hot topic of discussion, some people LOVED it and some people hated it, but there was no doubt that it deeply affected the fans.

After pencilling the 'LEGION OF DAMNED' storyline in 'LOSH' and 'LEGIONNAIRES' he went onto the 12 part maxi-series 'LEGION LOST' and he also drew a backup story in the 6 part series 'LEGION WORLDS', OLIVIER is now pencilling the NEW ongoing series 'THE LEGION' and since the first issue was released in October 2001 he has blown the FANS away !!! he has brought a distinct look to the 31st century's intergalactic defenders of justice !!!

Olivier's run on 'THE LEGION' has now ended with issue #14 which was released in December 2002 !!! This coming March will see his return to comics drawing MARVEL's premier superteam the 'AVENGERS' !!! So if you're a fan of the ULTRA talented OLIVIER COIPEL and DC Comics 'THE LEGION' and now Marvel's 'AVENGERS'.... come along and join us !!!
