Kitty's Fairy Tales
I recently added a piece of art by Dave to my collection from one of my favorite stories "Kitty's Fairy Tales" in fact its the nicest image from the
story, the opening "page" of the story with all the X-Men and who they are in the tale along with the open shot of Kitty and Peter swing in. I thought
I would post it ehere along with a piece I purchased from the coskrum auction a while back by an artist who is also a fan of the story.
If anyone else has art from the story (or related from the Nightcrawler miniseries) please post it here and share. Enjoy.
Bigger images of these can be seen in my CAF gallery Comic Art Fans
Be seeing you,
Brian

WOW!!!!
Excellent buy! I admit a true jealousy
I have a retouched reproduction Dave did of a Nightcrawler in Pirate garb that's from the Nightcrawler Limited series ideas, But was used as a marvel
age cover It's not the original, but Dave was re-inking a photocopy, so it
counts in my book
It's also.. the same image my Avatar is from! Woot!

In my opinion, the supreme moments for Bamfs came in the four-part solo Nightcrawler series which Cockrum did in 1985-6.
They appear at times in Excalibur.
The book-type picture above comes from Uncanny # 153, a really cute story which kinda pokes fun at as well as honors some of the then-current X-men.

No, that was the way people recognized "Marvel" at times. But the series is great fun and you will likely read it again and again. I put the bamfs
and boggies in a fic I wrote for a Challenge here, and people who find it at fanficiton.net really enjoy the silliness.

It's also in the NIghtcrawler Limited series that Dave and Paty did, and made a few appearances here and there in the main comic (Amanda sefton had
one, Jubilee had one, they showed up in Excalibur too.)
