BangZoom Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 Nice looking artwork. According to GCD, Gene Fawcette was the illustrator. GCD credits Bob Oksner and Frank Frazetta as the artists on, "The Mark of the Dinosaurs." And, for "The Freezer Gas" story they credit Ken Battefield as the penciler with inks by Frank Frazetta or Everett Raymond Kinstler. BB, do you have scans of any pages from either of those stories?

Jayman Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Hey Bill! Where were you in 1975? This was my first Con. Jon Very cool to see how the Horror elements at Marvel started to pop up around this time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dinosaurs look like Frazetta art but the other pages don't show much work by Frazetta. I think he worked on the splash of the first story but may or may not have worked on the second. I may not know Fawcette's art when I see it. I didn't think that the Tara story looked like his work. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Perhaps I don't recognize inks by Frazetta but I would expect them to look more like his other work that he did for Nedor. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen other work identified as being early Frazetta's inks that looks like the work on Jill Trent, but maybe it was misidentified? I'll leave it to those who know more than me to decide.

ciorac Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 The only thing that makes it look like Frank is that the hero looks like one of his typical self-portaits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 I love the text in these stories. "Out in the limitless darkness of space...new, strange worlds exist...and on one of these broods Dr. Voodo and his evil companions, plotting endlessly the destruction of the universe."

selegue Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 "Jill Trent, Science Sleuth" I wonder if selegue and Jill have met? No, but I'm smitten (even though she's "only" a blonde). I don't think I've ever seen the feature before. Looks like fun. Actually my first thought was to introduce her to ciorac. I'm a happily married man.

BangZoom Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 I liked the follow-up to the story. Well, heck yeah! I'm sure I could think of lots of topics to discuss with a science sleuth like Jill. Jack Wow. It seems you work fast. In the span of ONE day, you've met her, married her, gone into business with her and they already are telling us stories about you guys. Fast, fast, fast, ... Hey, say, you've never told us about your dancing abilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Here is a 6 page frazetta story from Movie Love #10. While not his strongest work, there are some nice moments, and he does manage to get some Dinosaurs & lovely ladies in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
