Description
This is something I've been wanting to try for a while - a straight recreation (as opposed to the mash-up cover recreations I've done in the past) of the cover of one of the comics that helped change me into a comic fan as a kid.In this case, Howard the Duck #8 - fantastic Gene Colan cover, so fun, even with all the hand-done newspaper lettering.
The original cover was created by Gene Colan, copyright Marvel Comics.
Here is the original cover: gobacktothepast.com/wpsys/wp-cβ¦

Thanks!Β Gene (the Dean) was not as difficult as I thought - especially with the feathering (no pun intended) done this way.
