Ultimately, I think he's been fairly clear that it is a reboot (I've got some quotes, if you're interested), but during one interview he did do a few verbal back flips to make sure longtime fans knew that he personally respected them since he is one of them. That has since translated to the muddiness we see now.
The 30th and 31st centuries seem to function as a small token and tip of the hat to symbolically memorialize those past incarnations. Those centuries seem to basically now be hallowed ground.
My personal feeling is that he's having it function like Superman's multiple first debuts in Doomsday Clock (are you familiar?).
"Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe. And that hole will become a path for those that follow after us. The dreams of those who have fallen. The hopes of those who will follow. Those two sets of dreams weave together into a double helix, drilling a path towards tomorrow. THAT's Tengen Toppa! THAT'S Gurren Lagann! MY DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT CREATES THE HEAVENS!" - The Digger
We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.
First i would prefer a Johns/Frank Legion ( i still think that team give us the best legion in decades)
Second, i love the new designs! My first comic of LoSH was the first part of the darkness saga and i remember how difficult was to me knew which ones were from earth. Because mostly looked caucasians. Change the color skins and a little featurettes and they look universal. Maybe the story will be really bad maybe one of the greatest... I cannot wait!
I think goldish woman behind Superboy is White Witch, pink woman to Cham’s right is Projectra.
It could be Invisible kid. There is a space and is blur in that part (also the only one missing in this one comparing with the cover of Millenium 2 is the black Hair male to the right of Dawnstar.
With this photo we Know almost all the characters. I think the skeleton one in the green suit is chemical king/queen. A new doctor fate and looks like a gold lantern. Comet queen in the middle. The pinkish one with tiara i assume is princess projectra. Karate kid the shaved one, the purple skin in white suit phantom girl and the black punk with pinkish hair and green suit is Shrinking Violet. No clue for the one sit in the arm of Colossal boy

I think that was Mon-El. Good call on the blur effect though. I see it near the bottom of the step.
Now that you mention it, there is totally what seems to be a glowing flower on her head in on the Millennium 2 cover. I also see that she's wearing green like Violet usually does. So the purple girl likely is Phantom Girl and the the skeleton is likely Chemical King/Queen.black punk with pinkish ha ir and green suit is Shrinking Violet.
Nice catches all around.

I still the gold one is Naomi are a decendant but she also reminds me a bit of Jazmin Cullen/Kid Quantum.

1 - It seems they're wearing their rings on their middle finger now, GL style...
2 - Who's that in the foreground?
I think it's our immortal female protagonist for Legion Millennium. The shoulder pads and hair length are nearly identical to the cover of issue 1.
The dominant theory (for me at least) is that she's Bendis original character from Man of Steel and Action Comics, Melody Moore.
