Mike Machlan Art -Marvel Super Heroes RPG Weird Weird West (TSR 1989) Prototype

This Mike Machlan art is something I probably traded with him in the late 80’s.
Marvel Super Heroes RPG Weird Weird West (1989) prototype is a TSR Official Advanced Game Adventure Module (MT2 6886). Featuring Marvel's western heroes including Ghost Rider, Kil Colt and Rawhide Kid. The Weird, Weird West is the second in the three-part Time Warp series of adventures, and is designed for the West Coast Avengers.
Jeff Butler told me that Mike Machlan did prototype images for the annual Random House retail preview catalog, that eventually were the Marvel Super Heroes RPG covers. In this case, Jeff Butler used this image as a starting point and ran with it to best represent the final Official Advanced Game Accessory book.
This piece features cowboys on robot horses, and western heroes, Two-Gun Kid,  and Kid Colt, but also, Spider-man, Captain America, Wolverine, and Iron-man.
Drawn on 11 1/2" X 14 1/2" 2 ply bristol board.
