The print on the right, originally appeared as the art on the box of a Super Grover toy made by now-defunct manufacturer Palisades Toys in their ill-fated Sesame Street line of action figures. It shows Alex retains the innocence of his childhood. This is one of the sweetest pieces Alex has ever done, I really like this one, as I was a huge Sesame Street fan as a kid.
What can I say about this poster that isn't explained in that action-packed image above? This is one in-your-face image. I love how it conveys the movement of the axe and the splashing of the blood. It's incredible, and the face of Conan is more of what i imagined the character would look like. Not like "Ahnuld" at all!IN MY COLLECTION: I have the USO and the Super-Grover posters.

LOVE the Super-Grover! Never seen that one before. That's GREAT!
Agree 100% with your comments on the Conan painting. Alex clearly respects the characterization that became so popular thanks to artists like Buscema.
very cool... I was just wondering why you found it odd that Judge Dredd is on the Anthrax poster/shirt?
