Art by Frank Frazetta from the story “The Monsters from the Mists” in Thun’da, King of the Congo #1, Jan. 1952. Published by Magazine Enterprises. (It’s the only comic book that Frazetta drew from cover to cover. And it’s stunning stuff. But I’ll point out that some of the art in this comic book is decidedly non-PC in its depictions of the African natives.)
