Description

Fantastic 11 x 16 vintage Hembeck piece with my favorite subject matter. Oh that iconic logo! This piece was drawn exactly one month before I was born.

I guess I have to change my name to Lavinias now. Has a nice ring to it!

Thank you for the unexpected addition to our trade, JG! I love it!

I think this should have been a variant for Giant Size #1.

This lineup is done as pretty as the ones Dave Cockrum used to do! The facial expressions reflect what little we knew of the new team at that time. The aw, shucks look of Colossus is great!

Great Fred composition! I love the way Storm seems to more walking in the air than flying.
