Cover 1, I scanned from a free preview Marvel put out before starting this series (it also contained previews of 3 other upcoming Soleil comics imports). The first variant of issue 1 is the copy I bought, so I scanned that cover. The second variant, I shamelessly ganked from Marvel.com. But in my search for a legitimate source to grab cover images, it seems like plenty of other sites ganked images themselves (of the original cover, at least), so I ain't feel too bad about it. (Not that I would've anyway, but...) Um. Cover 2, I scanned from a page at the back of issue 1, since it ain't got all the text & junk on the actual cover of issue 2. Same deal for cover 3, I scanned it from issue 2. All other images here should be pretty straightforward scans from each issue.
Please note the viewer discretion advisory at the top of this page. I generally try not to include explicit images in any of my galleries, but man, without dem, I can't do the series proper justice here. I am going to trust anyone underage not to look at this stuff (but if you do, I also trust you won't be scarred for life, or anything; and after all, it's not like any of these images are of real people, anyway). Still, if I get any complaints (particularly from Angelfire, which hosts my site), I reckon I'd remove any inappropriate images from the gallery....
Oh, about the sketches folder. Well first let me say, the first page of each issue has a picture of a single character. The first one is Noa, the second is Gaia, and the third is Agape, I believe. I was a bit surprised they never did one of Lodovica. Anyway, on the back of each issue's first page, there are of course the comic's credits, as well as a sketch of a different character. The first issue's sketch is clearly Lodovica, so I was thinking of putting it under her folder, but I'm not really sure about the other sketches, so I've just made a folder for all of them. The second is clearly an Aquarian, but it doesn't look to me like Gaia. Of course, all Aquarians are clones and look pretty much alike, but the sketch's hair is different, and there doesn't seem to be anything like a dot or whatever on her forehead. There's nothing there, not even an "i" like on the tour guide's head, so I'm just assuming it's a random Aquarian. The third issue has a sketch that I really can't place at all. Looks rather Aquarian to me, though I also think it looks a little like Cleopatra. But not really. Maybe it's her guardian or whatever, who is an Aquarian. But I don't think so. So, I've just labeled that sketch as "?" ...The issue also has a sketch, not so rough, in fact I'm not entirely comfortable even calling it a "sketch," but whatever. It's not important, but I thought I'd include it anyway. It's clearly a skrope, and I'm just assuming it's Elianthe, because no other skrope is of any importance. And... I guess that's all I had to say about the sketches. (Of course, I could be wrong about everything I've said except Lodovica.)
