Original Vintage Art & Text
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.)

Some of the the Art? Like the cover. Can’t wait to read it.
Do you find the original works online?
Read the story. Actually wasn’t that bad. And his art work was awesome.
Before you’re repulsed, you must first be pulsed.
Always interesting to see the assumption that different species will want white Caucasian women. Do female rhinos turn human men on? Baboons? Praying mantises?
I told you about the praying mantises (mantisi?) in confidence!!!!
