Thanks, since that book is out of reach (for now) of my price range I decided to enjoy it on these boards!

Sorry, nothing to post today as I'm on my way to a wedding but I am getting in a NICE mag next week that I will share!

[Jayman]

ArAich love that Tales of the Zombie Annual

That issue was a hard one for me to find to complete my run. Nice copy!

The Pablo Marcos art was stunning in some of those issues!

I like the layout, but it looks like Ken Steacy(sp?) did the inking. Or maybe it was all painted and justs looks different from his normal stuff. Not one of Steranko's best works.

Frazetta....

 

 

One of the nicest covers! The girl is great but man...THAT MARBLE PILLAR!

I've seen the original art to that cover at the Frazetta Museum in East Stroudsburge, PA. To my suprize most of the original artwork was not much larger than the printed covers.

 

There's a marble pillar in that picture?

There's a marble pillar in that picture?

 

 

No pillar to distract here!

No pillar to distract here!

 

Well, I'll do you one better...no pillar *and* no clothes to distract, here! (This is the Vampi #1 cover after Frazetta painted over the original, saying he hated the costume).

sanjulian beauty

 

 

Sanjulian is so underappreciated it's not funny. At his best, only Frazetta among his peers could rival him, and there are those who will swear that Sanjulian was better. He went on to do fine art paintings after his Warren career and some of them are just breathtaking in their detail...if anything, he got even better with time.

[Jayman]

I remember hearing something about this. A lot of people were getting upset that he started "touching up" some of his old pieces. I know they're his proporty, but I believe in when a piece of art is signed, it's done. No going back! If he wanted to change anything Frank could just re-paint the picture. (Just my two cents.)

Speaking of Frank...
