Pickie Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 From France a promotional flyer for the Youmbo Magazine (1949/50) with Sheena, the Jungle Queen, and "Blonde Panther", the "Tarzan Woman". Here's the nice header in the German version (1950). Maybe I start a thread with women doing headers ... Sarg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarg Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 We're seeing some of the greatest covers of the GA in this thread. Thank heavens most collectors prefer muscle-bound men in tights doing magic tricks over sexy jungle girls. May the prices continue to stay low on these books.

The jungle chief sure looks like one of Doolin's creations, but then, his face is more Baker-like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarg Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 On 1/16/2018 at 3:09 PM, BriD. said: According to the book Matt Baker: The Art of Glamour, regarding the cover to Zago #4, "Jim Vadeboncoeur Jr. thinks this is not Baker, but an Iger Studio artist swiping him." In my opinion, it is Baker on pencils, but somebody else on inks, and the inker did a pretty lousy job. Look at the girl's toes. This is what makes it so difficult sometimes to identify Baker art from the '40s. It can vary a lot depending on the inker. And sometimes there would be three artists (Baker doing the main figures in pencil, somebody else doing the background, and then a third person inking).

This is from another issue. Interior art in Germany in 1950 was never four color, which started only in 1951 with the Mickey Mouse Magazine. But some back covers were four color again showing the following number of the series. And here's one with the damsel in distress: You get the notion.

Electricmastro Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Fran Hopper apparently didn’t draw any covers, though her interior work such as for Camilla was still pretty stunning I thought: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has some of the best comic book art produced for the time I feel. Courageous Cat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
