Mike Machlan Art -Marvel, Kang the Conqueror and Marvel superheroes 1980's (TSR 1989) Prototype

This Mike Lachlan art is something I probably traded with him in the late 80’s.

Marvel Super Heroes RPG: The Revenge of Kang (1989 TSR) prototype is an Official Advanced Game Adventure #689, features Kang the Conqueror planning an alternate reality in which the Fantastic Four--and other super heroes--were never born or have switched sides and become villains.
Jeff Butler told me that Mike Machlan did prototype images for the annual Random House retail preview catalog, that eventually were the Marvel Super Heroes RPG covers. In this case, Jeff Butler used this image as a starting point and ran with it in his own vision to best represent the final Official Advanced Game Accessory book.

This piece features Kang the Conqueror facing Spider-man, Captain America, Wolverine, Iron-man and Daredevil.   
Drawn on 11 1/2" X 14 1/2" 2 ply bristol board.
