Unpublished Guts illustration from 1992 (Patreon)

Young Animal debuted in 1992 with a flagship series called "Japan", written by Buronson and drawn by Kentarou Miura. As Japan's serialization was wrapping up in YA #8, the magazine advertised the return of Berserk in issue #11.

What interests us is that they used an illustration to do so that, for whatever reason, didn't end up in the manga. It was however reused six months later... on a telephone card. In YA #2 of 1993, to mark the new year, 40 cards were offered by lottery among readers who applied. That's the last we saw of it.
