Description

Unsure when this was done.
Apparently Keith thought he would try his hand at reinking this cover.
Besides the notable absence of Blok, there are other subtle difference between this and the published cover.

At an early New York Con, Keith sold it to a friend of mine who sold it to me.

Leave ink strokes into vellum
In the back of some art with you, I stare into Legion
Still not too old to find fun
But covers hold on to his re-inks
And covers hold off on Blok's fight ring

I chase your love around to recreate
I need you more that ink can take
You promise a cover not a page
Giffen you take me away

Giffen you take it away
Way, way, way, way

A very cool and interesting mystery! It appears this recreation/reinking is more or less of the same age as the original. You're gonna have to do some sleuthing to find out what the story behind this is, Miki. Might Keith remember?

Yes, it was done contemporaneously with the original version. At the time he sold it, he said he did it and submitted to DC to be used instead of the original but DC either didn't get in time or decided to go with the original one.
