Portfolio Cover was published in September of 1987, in the Comics Buyers Guide, Vol. 1 # 720. The ad mentions a forthcoming Berni Wrightson print, but I have not yet seen it or heard of it having been produced. The prints are...Adam Warlock, illustrated by Craig Hamilton, Dr. Strange, illustrated by P. Craig Russell, Alpha Flight, illustrated by Mike Mignola, the New Mutants, illustrated by Arthur Adams, and Loki, Thor, and Beta Ray Bill, illustrated by Walt Simonson.

Superman The Movie Portfolio by Jim Dietz
Clipped from Comic Art Fans: Comic Superman The Movie (1978) portfolio by painter extraordinaire Jim
Dietz. This set of 12 prints were done very quickly right before the
release of the movie. Sadly WB didn't keep Jim doing
more of these for the Superman movie sequels.

Marshall Rogers Batman Portfolio + More
History: With writer Steve Englehart, Rogers penciled an acclaimed run on the character Batman in Detective Comics #471-476 (Aug. 1977 - April 1978), providing one of the definitive interpretations that influenced the 1989 movie Batman and be adapted for the 1990s animated series. The Englehart and Rogers pairing, was described in 2009 by comics writer and historian Robert Greenberger as "one of the greatest" creative teams to work on the Batman character. DC Comics writer and executive Paul Levitz noted in 2010 that "Arguably fans' best-loved version of Batman in the mid-1970s, writer Steve Englehart and penciller Rogers's Detective run featured an unambiguously homicidal Joker...in noirish, moodily rendered stories that evoked the classic Kane-Robinson era." In their story "The Laughing Fish", the Joker is brazen enough to disfigure fish with a rictus grin, then expects to be granted a federal trademark on them, only to start killing bureaucrats who try to explain that obtaining such a claim on a natural resource is legally impossible. Rogers also penciled the origin story of the Golden Age Batman in Secret Origins #6 (Sept. 1986) with writer Roy Thomas and inker Terry Austin.
