Straight from the golden era of 90s gaming magazines comes this powerful original artwork by legendary British comic book artist Simon Bisley, featured in our Pop Culture Live Auction.
Painted in oils in 1994, this dynamic piece was used as the cover of GamePro Magazine’s February 1995 issue, promoting the dark and gritty 2D fighting game Weaponlord. Bisley’s signature style — bold, intense, and hyper-detailed — brings the game’s warrior protagonist Korr to life in spectacular form.
A standout feature? The sword is rendered in a near-3D style, making this not just a nostalgic collectible, but a true showpiece of 90s fantasy video game art. The lot also includes the original magazine it appeared on.
