Description

Introducing Dale Keown: His FIRST comic art. His First cover.

Keown started at Aircel Publishing
Dragonforce #1-12 (1988�89) -from #5 it was published by Malibu Comics-
Dragonring #9-15 (1987�88)
Samurai #13-16 (full art); #23 (among other artists) (1986�87)
Warlock 5 #16-17 (1988)

1986 is the oldest so that's why I claim this as his first published art. I do not know that for an absolute fact.

Dale knew who he was from his first set and just kept refining that vision. Great artifact from one of the most important artists of a generation
