Any hope of supporting Mojo's Monkey 2 Talkie prototype? - https://mixnmojo.com/features/sitefeatures/LucasArts-First-Words/

Amazing, so nice to see this!

The new FMT Zak posters are a beautiful addition! Thank you for adding them, did they come from scans or some alternative source?
-
Gobsmacked, it's stunning.
-
It's so detailed! This is my absolute favourite poster. Thank you for continuing to work on it!

Maybe @Crumb can also unearth the map used on the Fate of Atlantis box/manual?
There's a larger area visible in this advert which might make it easier to track down.

Oh no! I'll get these re-scanned as soon as I find someone with a scanner I can use.

I just scanned the Zak cover from the front of CGW magazine. Hope it's good enough. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1o7ahoAReNcKbpj1KBjHUk2aQJcxQCU8Z/view?usp=sharing

@LaserschwertHere is a scan of my Kixx box for Zak.
I tried to put some weight into the box lid to flatten it out so it would scan without being blurry. I also covered it in dark material. Let me know if it's still problematic and I can re-scan.
I also re-scanned the manual from this edition.

@Laserschwert: Here's the scan from the Classic Adventures Manual. It looks like it's from a different source to the main manual and hint book(the logo differs)
Anyway, hope it's useful

I recently found a B&W version of the Zak artwork that looks as though it could be reasonably clean. It's from the Lucasarts Classic Collection manual.(I've attached a low resolution scan)
I've reached out to the wonderful site https://www.mocagh.org to see if they can provide a decent scan.

I love it! You are probably the only person who ever noticed that. 🤣

@LaserschwertI just won a copy of Zak in the Kixx box from EBay. Once that arrives I'll scan the art and then I'll probably just re-list it 😆

What in the world is that "Eagle and Wildcat" version?! Fascinating yet terrifying stuff.
Eagle and Wildcat was a comic sold in the UK. This particular cover is a mashup of Zak with a character in their comics called the Computer Warrior. It was about a boy whose friend had been kidnapped by an evil computer villain and trapped inside various video games.
They did a Zak McKracken comic and a Fractalus one. It swayed very far from the source media and this cover artwork is probably as close as it gets to being anything to do with Zak.
Both of these comics spanned across multiple issues and can be viewed here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FEH3ZcTdV6IKPOqQqh32AoPn5nWrhiC9?usp=sharing

I've got a copy of that issue of CGW coming in the post at some point. I know that the Kixx XL edition of Zak was definitely sold in the UK too. There's one on Ebay at the moment that I've put a bid on. There's a good chance I won't win it though.

I'm quite curious as to where that title-less image of Zak even came from and if it wasn't just some fan-creation.
That particular image comes from a website that did an interview with David Fox back around 2008. That’s the earliest I could find it. It does seem to match up quite closely with the hint book artwork which reveals more of the area below the logo.

LucasArts Posters: The Revenge
in General Discussion
Posted · Edited by RobMegone
@Laserschwert, are you interested in creating poster art for the Fate of Atlantis Action game at some point? Someone on Facebook shared images for an Italian Amiga magazine(K), which has some full page advert art for it.
I've asked the person who shared the images but they don't have a scanner, If you are interested then I'd be happy to try and track down a copy of the magazine to purchase and scan, or offer to pay for the original poster to have it scanned somewhere.
The images are here:

I also found these off-brand posters, presumably part of some magazine spreads at some point. Interesting, nonetheless.
