Description
Done in 1987 for First Comics

The is marked as a cover but was sold as a promo.
I could never find a published image, so I can only surmise that it was a rejected cover for the series.

That explanation certainly makes sense, as the proportions and positioning of the image matches all the covers in that series. Nevertheless, the composition here is great, with the figure of Elric being pulled almost 'out of shot' to draw the eye to the indistinct architecture in the distance. Nice image!

This looks substantially less "Duursema" than usual, but a bit more P. Craig Russell, which is understandable.

Elric's gonna need a warm elixer to get out of this one.

Does he love me?
I want promo
How Jan I tell if he loves me so?

(Is it in his eyes?) Parcel, you'll be received
(Is it in his thighs?) Oh, no, he'll make believe
If Duursema knows if he loves you so
It's in his hiss (That's where it is, oh, yeah)
(Or is it in his face?) Oh, no, it's just hiss charms
(In this warm embrace?) Oh, no, that's published art
If Stormbinger knows if he loves you so
It's in his hiss (That's where vanish)
Promo, it's in his hiss (That's where vanish)

Oh-oho, hug him, squeeze him tight
Find out what Duursema knows
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his hiss
