Mayfly and the Cougar

  I opened a box and found another piece of 1980s artwork. I am sure another page may be in a box somewhere!   

At the end of Black Tower Adventure no. 1 (1984) we saw a mysterious figure watching Mayfly and in the next issue she was to encounter a man who identified himself as The Cougar (no laughing!). I ended up drawing that story after the artist (Phil Horton?) pulled out. Just went totally silent on me and  that left me in a lurch.

Pretty battered up page but not unexpected.  The Cougar was, of course, featured in The Return of the Gods in which he was badly injured and after a bout of alcoholism/PTSD he is returning in the third volume of Adventure but it is nice to see how the characters started decades ago.
