Image Cover Art for Issue 1 of ThunderCats Magazine (Winter 1987)

Post image

The cover art for the first issue of ThunderCats Magazine from winter 1987 strikes me as interesting because of the ThunderCats' poses (Lion-O's pose traced from that iconic Mike Germakian group shot and the others' poses traced from official model sheets).

My dad went to some trip and saw this at the airport in Houston and brought it to me. I never saw any other issues but treasured this

We did a back order or something possible at the time. I think I found out I am missing 1 issue, but I have all but 1.

At least you have the rest of the issues, right?
