    1. 1982 Gil does the cover for Asteroids #1, based on the video game, but it never happened

    2. Cap'n's Comics where did you find this information? Would love to know more. I have the original art or production art for the cover listed above. Happy to share the scans.

    3. Wow, I have no idea! I can't remember last week anymore, and this was over a year ago. I rounded up my usual suspects (Heritage, Comic Art Fans, etc.) and you're right, it's nowhere to be found! I'm not on Facebook, but Gil has a mighty presence there. Also, it coulda been eBay or Flicr, but I don't know how to search those. weird. Congrats, though, it's certainly a beaut
