Off the heels of Starslayer and Grimjack, Timothy Truman was really hitting his stride. Used for the Scout promotional poster sent out to comic book stores enticing readers to buy his upcoming series. Ink and gouache on tan colored paper. *Note: The red squiggle on the sun is actually a thicker ridge of red paint and not noticeable in person. Eclipse Comics 1985 12" x 17" Heritage auction description: Tim Truman's masterful tale of a Native American of the Apache named Emanuel Santana, who lived in a dystopian United States that had become a Third World country. This piece features Truman's gorgeous inks and skillful gouache paints over graphite on a 12" x 17" piece of tan colored paper. In the lower left, there is a printed line-art and hand-colored paste-up for the back-up series Fashion In Action, which was created and illustrated by John K. Snyder III. Some very slight wrinkles; however, overall in Excellent condition.

Add me to the list of folks who saw this poster at my LCS and it also enticed me to buy Scout # 1 (and each subsequent issue)! Thank you for posting this wonderful piece!

I really love promo poster art. Usually some of the best art of the series. And this is a real beauty. The vibrant red of the sun, Scout's mask and the stripes is very striking. Awesome pick-up!

Such a cool piece. I loved Truman's work of this era and I reemember the comic well. Nostalgia and quality art boxes both ticked here.
