Really close to this CREEPS cover too; were they done around the same time?

Beautiful piece, Steve!  Congratulations on the pickup, that's a real gem!!

Just arrived. Now, how to read it wo hurting it.

My understanding is that all of the Sanjulian covers for Warrant have been newly commissioned, as contrasted by the reprinted Frazetta and Jones covers. The Eerie 40 cover would have been painted in late 1971 or early 1972. Many of the new Sanjulian covers have reminiscent aspects to some of his earlier work, such as in this case. A Creeps Dracula cover comes to mind as well. They’re just too similar to not be on purpose.

My sickness required me to have two copies, as the square bound is tough to read without leaving the evidence.

Oh my.... I dont know what to say. Aside from a Frazetta or Wrightson piece, this very painting would be top 5 all time art pieces in my book. If you ever decide to sell this Steve I will sell an organ for this.

I thought I might share another Sanjulian pencil piece from my collection.

Although not Spanish artists specifically,  I thought that some of us might be interested in this Illustrated History of Warren Magazines (Illustrator's Special) due in August from The Book Palace.  Now taking advance orders.

Browsing that link, I see that they also have one that IS specific to the Spanish artists in Warren magazines:

I think that's my favorite of your Enric pieces.  The color palette is strong and content is appropriately creepy.

The face on the zombie coming out of the ground is fantastically gruesome and realistic. I do like it when there is something happening in the painting as opposed to the more static pose. “The Return” is another one of mine that I feel this way about as well. I have the painting and pencil pieces.

Wow, that’s a tough one to say which I like more. They both have their fantastic nuances!

Those zombies in the background are awesome.
