Of all the works produced by Mannion to date, this would be one of his finest! The art has a certain Jean (Moebius) Giraud feel to it.

The art is accomplished in ink over graphite on Bristol board and measures approximately 11 x 17 inches. The artist signed & dated the work in the lower left prior to publication. Mannion signed the piece again, post publication, in the lower right margin. The work is in excellent condition. The title logo and cover elements are reproductions on an acetate overly.
The thrilling sequel to Fearless Dawn's “Jurassic Jungle Boogie Nights” is here at last! In an attempt to leverage some bargaining power, the evil Helga Von Krause kidnaps Fearless Dawn's canine companion, Dogface. But the trick takes an unexpected turn. Fearless Dawn has become a menace to herself and others! Fans of the Rocketeer, The Goon, and MAD Magazine are sure to get a kick out of this series, from the inimitable mind and pen of Steve Mannion!
