Description

All 2D this one! Might even fool the collectors! Altus Press are about to publish reprints of the original 14 Green Lama pulp stories. They will also be including in the collection this cover for a new short story, "Green Lama and the Case of the Final Column", by Adam Garcia that will tie the original pulps and Adam Garcia's new Green Lama pulp stories together. "The Final Column" will be set immediately after "The Case of the Beardless Corpse" and shortly before the events of "Green Lama: Unbound." It will also feature Crossen's pseudonym "Richard Foster" as a principle character. Thanks for looking.

Awesome art-work, as always! I found this All-2D one even better than the others

Nicely done (as usual!). Yes, this one might fool the collectors. I'm going to get Green Lama Unbound soon, and then pick this up. I've got a few of the reprints already (and all of the Green Lama radio shows!), so I may start using these to wind down after work. I really like the sharp contrast of green against mustard yellow in the sky, and the action down front is clean and tells the story well. I don't love his expression, though... I'm not clear on what emotion he's expressing. With the Shadow, he's always sinister and ready to dispense justice, and although the Spider looks ruthless on his covers, I've actually found him to be a bit whiny in his books (or at least one of them, "The Red Death Rain"). I'm just not sure if Jethro should look menacing or stoic... Although I do like the way he rises up from blackness and the way his green hood is so striking. It really delivers a nice, central focus to the image. I also like the detail on the bridge -- it's just right. Not too much, nor too little, and the cables remind me of a web. Another excellent job all around. Well done!
