  On a vacation you might go surfing, so here is Tharg on a cover by Simon Fraser.

  I have no idea. I had forgotten the cover until I was digging through one of my longboxes today.

  @rebis some amazing artwork from Marvel Fanfare! & beautiful Vess Stardust.
  
  @dubbat138 Also "amazing" (ha)....and I can't wait for the upcoming return of Xenozoic Tales!
  
  @Caliban Never thought I'd see a Tharg surfing cover - LOL! Loved that Alan Moore collection of Future Shocks.
  
  From me, some classic monster love today! This is what would have happened if you kept feeding those Sea Monkeys in the 70's....

  @RobAnderson That's a great monster cover, and one that's still on my wish list.
  I'm sure @WetRats will tell us where it come from originally.

  I live to serve...
  
  
  
  Lettering in the blurb is cooler in the original, but you can't beat the DOOMED! in the reprint.
  
  As usual, I like the original coloring better.

  Wow.
  
  I like this so much more than his more recent over-rendered work.

  I have always loved his artwork. And loved Fantagraphics short lived Monster Comics imprint. Their Freaks and King Kong comics were great.

  Nice. That's one of the few shown in this thread that I own. In my early teens I collected everything Freak Brothers. I was kind of freaky myself....

  Yep,and sadly that ends the Amazing Heroes covers. The magazine died in the early 90s.

  No vacation cover today. This is just me showing off.
  Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko on the cover of Amazing Spider-Man #1.
  Not a great condition on this particular copy, but I'm posting it because I bought this one last week!

  Wow, I always wanted this one when I was a kid. Saw it in a cross-ad or something. I was the biggest Squadron Sinister/Supreme fan as a kid...didn't read it until many years later...
