    The Buyers Guide for Comic Fandom #474, featured my artwork on the cover. To some TBG subscribers, this issue's cover may have seemed vaguely familiar--a reprint of an earlier cover, perhaps, which publisher Alan Light did from time-to-time. But it wasnt a reprint. In fact, it is a total re-do of the cover I, Russ Maheras, drew for TBG #272, published nearly four years earlier on Feb. 2, 1979. I re-drew the cover because while I liked the layout, I was unhappy with the quickie drawing I was forced to do, with minimal art supplies, at the small table in my Air Force technical training dorm room. I changed a few things in the later version that, unless one held the covers side-by-side, probably would never have been noticed. And although its dated 1982, the second version was actually drawn in 1981, while I was an aircraft avionics technician stationed at RAF Bentwaters, United Kingdom. Thats why there are technical details added on the newer drawing that I never would have thought of when I drew the earlier version--before I had ever set foot on a flightline and touched a military aircraft. Summary of this issue, including a bit of interesting personal history, by Russ Maheras.
