The Fantagraphics collections were all printed from the superior Russ Cochran printed books; published in the 1970's.. Which, are glorious!! Printed closer to Magazine-size and on thicker Bristol-type paper. And best of all, in beautiful Black & White! The guy that loses the girl in the "Untamed Love" story was modeled after Al Williamson! LOL
According to the biographical material on Frazetta that I've read, he started working in comics in the early 40s as a teenager.
There's a story that when he was starting out, an editor told Frazetta that his (Frazetta's) anatomy needed some work, and handed him an anatomy book. The next day, Frazetta came in to return the book and announced that he now understood anatomy. The kicker was that he did.
Thunda might have been one of his last books of his initial work in comics, as he had quit for awhile due to editorial meddling.
This is just some of the most fun stuff to watch on the interwebs. Thank you guys. Best history and knowledge I could ask for. Every video a true trip
i went to the early Frazetta museum circa 1984 over their store in 1984. I spent over an hour with Ellie as she told me stories about each painting and drawing. . No one was there so i was on a personal guided tour. My favorite was the cave men in the mist used on Warren. She said he went into the studio and came out an hour later and said " I just made a great cover painting " then went off to throw the ball around with the kids
Great job here guys!! Frazetta's Comic work (To me) is just as phenomenal as his paintings!..& the crazy thing for the short time he was in the field, his work was pretty productive & prolific!!
I'm seeing some of the more cartoony faces that look like Art Adams faces. Fascinating, I've thought of Frazetta as an influence of Adams.
Oh yeah Art Adam's was def a frazzetta fan!
😎 As a comic strip fan I can not only see the Foster - Raymond influence that dominated many a developing talent but Frank Godwin and Raeburn Van Buren especially with the look of his beautiful women. Both men were magazine illustrators who ventured in to comic strips and achieved success. Godwin has both the 1920s-1944 Connie strip and the 1950s strip Rusty Riley as claims to cartoonist fame as well as having some 1920s Jazz Age magazine drawings that depict men and women in classic "Frazetta" poses. Van Buren who was hired by Al Capp to draw the Abbie and Slats comic strip and as the strip progressed you can see starting in the late 1940s and throughout the remainder of the strips run into the 1960s Van Buren's influence on Frazetta's female form.
Godwin was amazing. His brushwork certainly influenced Frazetta's.
...I would swear I have seen some of those posed women from the illustration portion of this video before and I think at least some were swiped from Playboy. While Frazetta had more than a touch of Lothario in him, it would have been quick and easy to use those skin mags as a reference, especially since the pics are already sure-fire, lust provoking images. Hef never published heifers...
Frazetta always makes you fall into pieces! Then it builds you up again.
Awesome video , thank you
Love Frazetta! Thanks for another killer video, guys.
People need to see the early work of guys like Frazetta, to see the roughness. The myth of the infallible "artistic genius" is really toxic for people struggling to learn the art form.
The early work may have been rough by some standards but let's be real - he had a real gift whereas others had to work years to get to peak level (Gene Colan, for example).
