Thanks for the kind words, Rocky. Nice gallery, too -- sweet Woodring and Rude, especially. (I used to have a nice Sala piece and can't remember if I sold it or have it buried in storage. Moved around so often!)

A piece of Yarn Man artwork has been on my wish list for years. So amazing to see this cover so bright and vivid.

I loved all your work, Don. Megaton Man was,,,wait for it,,,The Bomb! Yuck, yuck.

Anyway, I was married the year Yarn Man was published, so I missed it. I kinda fell out of the comic book world for a while. I'm going to go and find a copy now. This cover is worth it!!
