Dragon Magazine #2 / 123

Dragon Magazine #123 from 1987 delivers a vivid, atmospheric cover by Larry Elmore, depicting two young adventurers crouched tensely beside a blazing forge or bonfire, with a massive, shadowy demonic face looming ominously in the darkness behind them. The firelight dramatically illuminates the scene, capturing that perfect blend of danger and heroic grit that made Dragon a beloved companion for role-players everywhere. Inside, the issue promises magic and wizardry in the Mystic College alongside a new column, "Hereos of Galactus," making this a well-rounded 1987 installment for any dedicated adventurer.
