Outstanding work, finally S3 of the Tick, really nice find there K
Conan the Adventurer, brilliant, didn't think of this when you did the Films, and yes there was a Live Action Show which was pretty bad sort of a low budget Hercules/Xena wannabe I think they where just trying to cash in with the success of the films. Nice Shield on the back
Conan and the Young Warriors, pretty rare find if you can find it
Thanks again, excellent work
Oh the Shout Factory have only released half of season 2 of Conan the Adventurer on DVD, Parts 1 & 2 there are still another 26 episodes, which should eventually be Parts 3 and 4.
Quick rant about the Shout Factory, they seem to have screwed up the running order of episodes on season 2, well according to wiki and the dates they where aired, sometimes if the airdate differs to the running order the running order is rearranged, but the running order and airdates seem to be in order. Of course if people have the released dvds, then your covers are correct as I do, just thought I would mention it

Another update to the collection as I put off other work I probably should be focusing on. 
[Click on previews to view each cover in the gallery]
First up, the upcoming The Wolverine in both Blu-ray and DVD format. (Note: On all X-Men film series covers, I changed the "atom blob" design element to a more refined 3D DNA Helix. I never liked the way the old one looked, so I've made the slight update on all BD and DVD versions.)

[attachment=25195:mfc_xmen..._package.jpg]
Then there's the class 1966 television series The Green Hornet, starring Van Williams and Bruce Lee.
[attachment=25198:detc_gre..._package.jpg]
Fritz the Cat and its sequel The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat are up next. The original film, based on underground comics by R. Crumb, was the first X-rated animated film and also the most successful independent animated film of all time. It's apparently full of animated cat nudity, vulgar language and violent situations. Animated nudity has never been something I've ever cared to watch, so these don't particularly interest me, but they are based on comics, so here they are...

[attachment=25200:fbfc_fri..._package.jpg]
Then there are the various incarnations of Sheena, Queen of the Jungle... the first of which being the 1955 black-and-white television series starring Irish McCalla.
[attachment=25201:fhtc_she..._package.jpg]
Then the 1984 version of Sheena starring Tanya Roberts. The film is notable for showing full frontal nudity in a PG rated film.
[attachment=25202:fhfc_she..._package.jpg]
In the early 2000s, the Sheena character was revisited once more in a television series starring Playboy model and Baywatch "actress" Gena Lee Nolin. The low-budget, syndicated series ran for two seasons.
[attachment=25203:fhtc_she..._package.jpg]
[attachment=25204:fhtc_she..._package.jpg]
Finally, going back to finish up the Conan adaptations is the live-action Conan the Adventurer. Like Sheena, this series was also quite low-budget and run in syndication, lasting only one season before meeting a probably well-deserved death.

And, in case you've forgotten... here's the whole collection once again...

Wow man - Those Fritz the Cat covers look great! Brings back memories!! I used to read a lot of the late 60s/early 70s american underground comic books (released here in Denmark as a series of albums - other titles being The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers and the spin off series Fat Freddy's Cat), and this one was no exception. Never watched the movies though. Great work on the TTs!
The Wolverine just released the first full trailer, and I hope the movie is as good as that! Your cover certainly shows promise!

A designer knows he has achieved perfection - not when there's nothing left to add - but when there's nothing left to take away

Many Thanks for all your hard work
The Wolverine, great looking cover, the trailer holds promise, the helix switch out looks a lot better
Fantastic work on Monkeybone, never seen it myself either so it will probably be one of those one off watches then add it to my collection never to come of the shelf again only to look at the fine work on the cover
The Green Hornet, the hornet logo looks great, unfortunately I only have the 1974 compilation movie The Green Hornet and the 1976 The Fury of The Dragon, I remember the diecast car better it had a missile launcher, that came out of the radiator, and some sort of frizby thing that was in the boot
Fritz the Cat, unlike Jollyroger, I've never seen these, I've seen a few Ralph Bakshi stuff like Lord of the Rings, Wizards and Cool World and enjoyed them in most part. Watching an animated nude cat is another thing though, something I'm not into , but the covers look great nice TT and back logo.
Sheena, well you've out done yourself again, I didn't even know there was a couple of TV series, yeah I knew of the film mainly due to Tanya Roberts getting her gear off great looking TTs pun not intended
Conan, had the episodes for a while, but never watched it, probably anoth to stick on the shelf and forget Nice find on piece of artwork used though
Overall a nice Easter surprise

Recently printed a few of these, man do they turn out well!
Just saw Oblivion, what a great movie! I also love that Hollywood is now going so far as putting 'based on an original graphic novel' in the credits before said "graphic novel" which the movie is based on has even been published. Oh what a world!
Great movie though, recommended!
