Miguel García’s 1979 cover replicates Frazetta’s The Gauntlet (1977) structure—its drama, dynamism, & iconic triangular composition—with a tracing-paper swipe of Sondra Locke. The only thing he didn't copy was Clint Eastwood's face, but hey... Frazetta missed it too. 🤫 #PulpArt

Sanjulian, ever the consummate craftsman, delivers a western illustration where red dominates a bit too much… as does the nod to Clint Eastwood in The Beguiled (1971). One could almost read all that crimson as the canvas politely absorbing a certain… involuntary flush. #Heat 🥵

When Daredevil was known in Spain as Dan Defensor (😬), Enric Torres delivered a 1969 cover that—wrong uniform aside—bursts with energy and personality. Compared to Wally Wood’s 1965 original, its composition and brushwork are pure gold. Admit it: you think so too. 👓🫧#MarvelArt

It’s quite clear on this El Coyote #24 (1983) cover that Fabá drew from Kirk Douglas as Doc Holliday in Gunfight at the OK Corral (1957). He also borrowed from The Magnificent Seven (1960) (number included, wardrobe swapped). Inspiration, yes; discretion, not so much. 🧐#Pulpart

With the 25th‑anniversary theatrical re‑release of The Lord of the Rings films, I pulled out this striking 2023 illustration Maren made of Gimli. It lines up with John Rhys‑Davies’ photo so precisely that Middle‑earth would probably accept it as official lore.🪓 #LOTR #FantasyArt

Boada’s cover is basically a cinephile collage: Henry Fonda from My Name Is Nobody (1973), William Katt from Butch and Sundance: The Early Days (1979), and Paul Newman from The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972). The girl? Very likely swiped too, though proof gets thin.🧩🔍

In the noble art of “homage,” Sanjulian delivers a Sandman astonishingly close to Brian Bolland’s. A gentle nod, a careful echo… let’s say a very devoted reinterpretation. And honestly, if one must borrow, he couldn’t have chosen better. ⏳🖌️

López Espí’s cover for Los Vengadores #25 (1971) swipes Buscema’s iconic Avengers #57—Vision’s debut—and elevates it. Fewer characters, cleaner composition… and a far stronger hit. More direct, more striking, more powerful. Here, the Spanish version wins. Who agrees. #MarvelArt

It’s pretty clear Boada built the Splatter University (1984) cover by reworking Enzo Sciotti’s The Beyond (1981) shocking poster — and then tossing in the skull from Dr. Terror’s House of Horrors (1965). A reheated mash‑up with the same ending. The blonde dies. 👱‍♀️🔪#HorrorArt

Prieto Muriana, even when digging through references, never stopped being original. I suspect this illustration draws from Twins of Evil (1971): witchcraft, pyres, and a puritan zealot worthy of Gustav Weil. But hey, if I'm wrong, at least you can enjoy peak Peter Cushing. 🔥🫣

The descriptive text for fantasy master Sanjulian’s Red Sonja – Warrior Princess Battle Cry says it’s “inspired by Xena: Warrior Princess,” which anyone from that era would spot instantly. I still remember the 2001 calendar—hard not to feel inspired. ⭕🗡️#FantasyArt #LucyLawless

This cover —probably by Boada— packs at least three swipes: Stacy Keach in Doc (1971), a Gabby Hayes photo, and a Marlboro ad. But the real point: yesterday was Walter Stacy Keach Jr.’s birthday. As usual, I’m late — but long live the lifts if they’re for celebrating his 85th.⭐

Taking a break from hunting swipes to craft one myself. This 2001 novel needs pirates, a ghost, and real pulp bite—and Llamas’s cover doesn’t go there. So I’m pulling from Ian McShane in Pirates 4 and Geena Davis in Cutthroat Island. Call me a cheat. The sea forgives worse. #Pulp

Boada’s cover for Lassiter #2774 quietly borrows from at least two sources: Robert Redford in Out of Africa (1985) and Clint Eastwood’s Josey Wales hands, lifted from another of his illustrations. A western halfway between Kenya, Missouri, and creative recycling. #WesternArt🦒♻️

Clint Eastwood (1930). The stare. The swagger. The filmmaker. The legend. 96 years of pure icon status. Happy Birthday to the last cowboy standing. #CinemaIcon

López Espí’s Thor #2 (1970) adds a painterly weight and a different emotion to Kirby’s 1966 cover: Odin doesn’t bow his head with closed, resigned eyes—he looks at Thor’s body, with sadness and compassion. Yet it all begins with King Jack’s vision. You choose.🔨👁️ #ComicArt

Congratulations to Esteban Maroto on the 2026 Barcelona Comic Grand Prize. Few artists channel the classics with such devotion. His Conan and Great Ape (1979) mirrors John Buscema’s style so closely it could pass for a lost panel from Conan The Barbarian #75. #ComicArt 🏆🙈

Two tweets in one day—blame #IanFleming. Best Bond ever? In 1983 they didn’t blink: Sean Connery ruled. The cover reimagines Never Say Never Again and St. Basil’s Cathedral. I add the magnetic Ingrid Pitt as a Bond girl. Even Q couldn’t improve that lineup. #PulpArt #007 🔥🕵️‍♂️

On Ian Fleming’s birthday, the literary father of 007, the eternal debate returns: who’s the best James Bond? Tastes vary, of course, but Sebastián Boada flat‑out lifted Roger Moore’s For Your Eyes Only (1981) pose for this 1985 cover. Homage? More like a signed ballot.#PulpArt🎯

True to my talent for missing every damn anniversary, I forgot John Wayne’s birthday yesterday. So I’m making amends with the cover of BÚFALO ROJA #1421: the original had a town, horses… I’m keeping only his unmistakable mug. If less is more, the Duke makes it legendary. 🫡
