Description
This is the well known cover to X-Men: ALPHA by Joe Mad and myself. This was arguably the most well known image in comics through the latter 90's. This scan is attrocious, I know. I actually own the original and its been framed and hanging on my wall for years. I dont want to take it out of the frame so Im stuck with this horrible scan.
A little bit of trivia. This was actually the first time I ever worked with Joe and the first cover I ever inked in my career. Furthermore, it was a big rush job and I was asked to do finishes on it. The sentinels were completely drawn by me and much of the background elements were finished by me. Nothing like a little pressure. After seeing this cover, Joe and the powers-that-be at Marvel decided to team us up on the Uncanny X-Men. Obviously, this cover has a ton of sentimental value for me.
