This is beautiful, I always loved this cover. Makes me reminisce back to a time when I lent my bass cabinet to MDC.

Lovely but insanely out of my price range. I need to check the boxes but I think I have that issue. I know I have 1 through 20.

it's nice, but the headstock of the foreground guitar looks like it's tilting the wrong direction.

yes... i had the t-shirt too. It was a sad day for me when a friend borrowed it and I never saw it again... I'd buy another one in an instant.

Neat JFrancis! I have the original art of the first page of the first Maggie and Hopey story from the first issue of Love and Rockets. (Here's the top half of the page.)

Have adored that drawing since the moment I saw it on the cover of L&R.

Totally sublime.

$200 for a poster? are you mad?

Scan at 300dpi into photoshop, despeckle, Ctrl L, sample out the red.

Save.

Download Rasterbator, load the pic, decide how huge you want the poster, set print to edge, load a B&W printer with red paper.

And go.

Some assembly required.

Oh and if they ever do reissue this as a shirt... red on a black shirt this time.

Please.
