ITEM!

The Marvel Super Heroes autograph cards from 2001 and 2002 feature Davis/Farmer art of the Invisible Woman (2001) and Mr. Fantastic (2002). (Marvel could have saved money by claiming that an actress dressed up as the Invisible Woman did attend these personal appearance events - it's just that nobody could see her.)

ITEM!

Davis/Rubinstein headshots of the X-Men appear on the back packaging of the X-Men: Madness in the Murderworld computer game from 1989.

And if the screenshots shown on the packaging are actual shots from the game, then this art was 'adapted' to appear in the game as well.

(Note: the Storm headshot looks to be by John Byrne.)
