Popular Post Rip Posted August 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) Speaking of Frazetta, thought some fans might be interested to see Frazetta's cover from Vampirella was ripped off by this movie poster art. I think this may be the 3rd rip off I've seen of the same artwork.

You've been missed, sir! Hope your dogs are doing well! Hi Randall et al. I still read/check the magazine thread almost daily. I just don't post much as I have made a concerted effort to change my online behavior in regards to social media. However, I do still enjoy discussing comic magazines, more specifically, the history and the people behind them. I think I will start participating a bit more on the forums but solely in the context of the magazine forum. It is an oasis on these boards IMO. I don't collect anymore as I have almost everything I wanted from comic magazines with the exception of a Blazing Combat 1 (and the collecting drive is much diminished at this point anyway). I've been thinking about doing some data analysis and visualizations based on my local copy of the GCD database. I may share those on here If I can find time to muck with a few side projects. This is an older video I put together years ago on Frank Frazetta. It utilizes a GIT code commit visualization library in which I transformed Franks output into what looked like code commits. I have much better tools and skills for this sort of thing now just no time to do it. I am five years in with a German startup which I helped start and time constraints are insane. Data visualization of Frank Frazetta's credited work in comic books from 1947 through 1970. Data is culled from the Grand Comics Database. Selection was based on Frazetta's name as a wildcard match as penciler on any comic book before 1970. A strict chronology is not guaranteed as missing months or dates are defaulted to 01 in both cases.

It's really best viewed on a large display because there's some pretty obscure work in there that I'd never seen before! Understood on the work demands. It's nice to know that you're still around, sir! Stevemmg and Jayman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Surfing Alien Posted August 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 18, 2023 Been concentrating on upgrading and/or acquiring higher end vintage paperbacks but I threw a thrill bid on this and won it for $31. One of the few Frazetta's I don't have any copy of at all and decent enough to display but still readable.

Popular Post B2D327 Posted September 14, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2023 I really need to look through these boards a little more thoroughly. Always finding threads that are new to me ven after 7 years 🤣. I’m always searching for Warren stuff when I can find it for a good deal and Frazetta was my hero even before I knew who he was. “Painting With Fire” sealed the deal. These were a couple of pickups from the marketplace thread from a few years back and one reason to always check the b/s/t section Jayman, Randall Dowling, chevalmeow and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
