Description

Perhaps best known for his work on Micronauts and the Nam, Michael Golden is simply put, a superstar artist.

Perhaps some of his most fascinating art, and possibly least known by anyone other than hardcore Golden fans, are his covers (and portfolios) for Topps’ Jurassic Park series.

Beautifully detailed, wonderful compositions, these covers transcended the JP sequels and side stories that we published at Topps. They are simply stunning. While some are better than others, there’s not a bad one in the bunch.

Michael did 18 different covers, and added two new ones to two separate portfolios, which are long out of print and challenging to find on the secondary market place.

You can see pretty much all of them on-line. And we reprinted some of them at IDW Publishing during the period we licensed the series

This specific cover? Dinosaurs. Gorillas. Mad scientists. It’s like some crazy ol Republic serial, gorgeously illustrated.

And for you Golden Micronauts fans? The terrifically talented and tenacious Scott Dunbier has somehow figured out a way to carve out a deal with Golden, Marvel and Hasbro to create an Artist Edition for later in the year.

I can’t imagine it will be anything less than great.
