Description

A grail!!!!

This is Gene Colan's original pencil drawing for the cover of Howard the Duck Marvel Treasury Edition (1976). The published version, inked by Tom Palmer, was substantially altered by Marvel's then art director John Romita, Sr.: the characters were repositioned to appear in full around Howard and Hulk's face was redesigned by Romita...

Compare the original pencils with the published cover!

The rectangular border drawn by Colan is exactly 26.3 x 34.6 cm / 10.23 x 13.38 inches.

I like Colan's penciled version much better.
