I really love promo poster art. Usually some of the best art of the series. And this is a real beauty. The vibrant red of the sun, Scout's mask and the stripes is very striking. Awesome pick-up!

Such a cool piece. I loved Truman's work of this era and I reemember the comic well. Nostalgia and quality art boxes both ticked here.
