Spotted Online – Arthur Adams’ Star Wars #21 Cover Recreation

My copy of Carmine Infantino: Penciler, Publisher, Provocateur* has arrived, and flipping through the book quickly led to me poking around online to see more of Infantino’s Star Wars artwork from the seventies and eighties. So many amazing images!

One surprising image I ran across in my searches was an Arthur Adams recreation of the cover to Star Wars #21. The original cover, pencilled by Carmine Infantino and inked by Terry Austin, is one of those early iconic Star Wars covers from Marvel that I’ll never forget, and seeing Adams’ homage to that work was unexpected and made my day just a little more wonderful.
