It's easy to see why in the first few pages here. Wow, just look at that inking! Apparently, he was one of those artists that, basically, drew in his inking; i.e. his pencils being just very light outlines of basic shapes and stick figures. That ability always knocks me out!Mykal Bantahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12148489896145024134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-15352603396993049822012-03-03T12:06:58.590-06:002012-03-03T12:06:58.590-06:00Page 7 (of this set) really shows the versatility ...Page 7 (of this set) really shows the versatility of the great old artists.<br /><br />The werewolf/ape-man would be right at home in a 50s pre-code and it's a great horror drawing, but the female (demon? Vampire?) is both 50s pre-code seductive and comic at the same time.<br /><br />And that's just a great comical Frankenstein. You really want to hang with him instead of run from him!Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.com
