Description
Fleetway first used this cover for War Picture Library #307, "Born Leader," cover date September 1965. It was later reprinted in War Picture Library #2024, "Eagles Fly High" in 1983. This gouache painting has an acetate overlay with stat paste-ups for 1983 book and story names.

Synchronicity sometimes happens. I accidentally ran across this work by Italian comics artist Biffignandi in an auction. At the time I was studying Italian and the Divine Comedy and had recently visited the country, bringing back some Italian fumetti (comics) to read.

I'm primarily familiar with Biffignandi's "sexy" cover art, so it's really nice to see something from a different genre from him.

Come puoi avere del budino se non mangi la tua carne? Se non mangi la tua carne, non puoi avere alcun budino.

Purtroppo non ho mangiato niente il budino, il bonet, la zuppa inglese emiliana o altri dolci famosi di Italia.
