This is merely concept art, and Blackthorne Publishing folded in 1990 without the comic ever being released. The Blackthorn logo is visible on the page. No copyright should exist for this. It's hard to imagine this not being in the public domain for those reasons. See explanation below.

Fair use rationale for A Nightmare on Elm Street[edit]

• This is from Blackthorne Publishing which folded in 1990 without being bought by a parent company. Though the uploader at Comicartfans never figured it out, this is obviously the concept art done by Andy Mangels for the A Nightmare on Elm Street 3d comic book adaption that never came to be. How the original uploader at that site came by this is anyone's guess. See the Adaptions and literature section for an explanation.
• To be used for the Adaptions and literature to show what remains of a "lost comic".
• No resizing should be necessary, as the art is most likely free due to the bankruptcy of Blackthorne Publishing and since it's merely an early concept art of a comic that was never released.
