ORIGINAL COVER ART
There are a few differences between this piece and the finished version, in particular on the central figure. Gulacy has worked extensively for Marvel and their Epic line and this study is a fine example of his work from the early 1980s. This art has an image area of approximately 11" x 15". It is executed in pen and art marker on bristol board.
