Telling Stories: Classic Comic Art of Frank Frazetta Museum Edition Hardcover
Fantasy art’s most popular painter, Frank Frazetta, was also a leading comic book illustrator during the golden age of the industry. Telling Stories: The Classic Comic Art of Frank Frazetta celebrates his rare and largely forgotten stories created over five decades ago. This collection includes his complete Thunda tales and best romance works like “Untamed Love,” “Empty Heart,” “A Love of My Own,” “The Wrong Road,” and “Too Late for Love.” These romance stories, often overlooked, feature some of Frazetta’s finest works with shapely women, nude statues, and implied sensuality. Also featured are his heroic works such as Heroic Comics, White Indian, and the long-running series ME, alongside Squeeze Play, his one and only solo-drawn story for EC. Additionally, there are rare SF stories such as Captain Comet and Judy of the Jungle, along with his best and most obscure late 1940s works.
All stories are newly colored to give them a fresh quality, highlighting Frazetta’s masterful art. The 18-page introduction provides an overview of Frank’s comic book career, from his first in Tally Ho Comics to his solo works for Warren magazines and Witzend. The introduction is beautifully illustrated with original black-and-white pages.
