Dungeon 5, May/June 1987: "A powerful air elemental lays waste to the underground fortress of a mighty wizard. Robin Wood has captured the first meeting of the sorcerer with his nemesis in this month's cover painting." Note the artist's name worked into the decorated floor.
Rich Stump's AD&D adventure "Hirward's Task" presents an interesting situation for adventurers -- a wizard's laboratories still populated by his human and kobold underlings, whom the wizard wants protected and unharmed, but who are jumpy and quick to defend themselves due to some rampaging loose monsters.
