Do you mean art that says "the Tribe" is by one of the artists?

 

I'm looking for art that is credited to "The Tribe", not to the individual artist.  Also, if anyone knows any interesting history about The Tribe, please share.

John Buscema & ‘The Tribe’: Savage Sword of Conan #5 pg 61:

The credits on this story are "ART: JOHN BUSCEMA and THE TRIBE". On the letters pages 'the tribe' is described this way: 

" Oh, and incidentally, the members of Tony deZuniga's talented "Tribe" which inked and embellished this issue's classic tale are: Steve Gan, who handled the Falcon and the "bad guys" - Rudy Mesina and Freddie Fernandez, who inked the minor characters and most of the backgrounds - Pete Lijauco, who did the gray-tones with Mr. deZ's help and supervision - and of course Tony himself, who handled Conan and many of the other major characters - including the ladies, naturally. (The boss gets all the breaks!) "
