    No hotlinking. Let me get that for you.


    It does seem to be a rather consistent art style, doesn't it? At least it is indeed superior to the Master System art style.

    I've always wondered if that was drawn by Sergio Aragonés.

    Legendary Axe 2's art is indeed misleading. It uses the character from the first game that doesn't even appear in 2. I have Legendary Axe 2 but mine is card only. I didn't even notice this till the full size art was posted.

    The Japanese version is even called Legendary Axe 2 so it wasn't a US only thing, but I can see how the developer might have just used the Legendary Axe name to sell it.

    Trivia time:

    LA1 was called Makyou Densetsu (Legend of the Bounds of Evil) in Japan, programmed by Aicom.
    LA2 was called Ankoku Densetsu (Legend of Darkness) in Japan, programmed by Atlus.

    The Japanese publisher for both was Victor, so they probably called the naming shots.

    That would explain why I've gotten that confused all these years, the Japanese names are very similar.
