Yup, remember this one distinctly!  Blob may think he's got the jump on on Cable but something tell's me the rotund baddie is in for a surprise!  Congrats!

Personally, I'd let Todd draw wherever he wants.  ;)  Epic cover!  Definitely one I remember well from childhood.  Congrats!

This is A+ 90s Marvel art. Great cover. I'm sure you're thrilled to have that in the collection. I sure would be.

O....M....G....! This is great. I might be the odd one out here, but I like this cover more than the New Mutants #87 cover.

This is true collaboration. The two working together are better than working seperately. They should work together again.

Two for one - check the McFarlane and Leifeld box in one!

I'd never noticed before how much Liefeld plus Mcfarlane looks like Art Adams work.  Love this cover. Leave it to Liefeld and Mcfarlane to make the Blob look awesome. And I will never get tired of seeing artists put their signature on stone. Amazing cover and find. Huge congrats!

Its true. They are sons of Adams when they work together... which is by no means a bad thing.
