Alex Niño's Burial Of Death


Alex Niño's Burial Of Death

This is the center spread of the February 1978 issue of Heavy Metal painted by Alex Niño. This was sent to me by Dell Barras and I thought I'd post it here. Thanks Dell! A large copy of this painting will be posted at the museum soon.

Alex was a regular contributor to Heavy Metal during the late 70's up the early 80's. His most notable work from this publication at this time was the adaptation of Theodore Sturgeon's More Than Human, and my personal favorite, Tap Dancing On a Tender Cerebellum.
