Wasn't sure where to post this, but going through the t-shirt stash, and I came across this oldie-but-a-goodie!

I want to say this was late 80s, but it could be early 90s?

I had that very same T-shirt. One had to mail in for it. I wore it my Senior year in high school, which was 88-89.

Thank you for that!

Do you recall what the mail-in was?

If I recall, it was based out of one of the 6 issues. I guess the only way to find out is to go through my 6. I haven’t slabbed the set yet.

This is so cool...do you know anything about it? I can't find one anywhere online...

I just found a copy I've had since I picked it up in a Chicago comic book shop back in 1988. Here are 6 of the 8 pages.

1st Alien=Heavy Metal #26

I don't think the alien actually showed up in the preview in Heavy Metal, though...
