You can always count on Frank...

In a " Land that time forgot " or " Journey to the center of the earth " composition one can always count on Frank Frazetta to provide one awesome fur clad knife wielding warrior woman. Frank has always been the greatest of the great and this painting is only another example. WHO can provide me with the background on this piece..is it a book cover? I'd like to know...this way I can go hunt it down and buy it. ;)

La of Opar....

Over on facebook Michael Maikowsky created a fan page entitled " The artistry of John Buscema " of which I am a member of this fan group. During the week fellow member Bojan posted a cool Tarzan drawing from out of Marvels Tarzan issue 3...then later he posted the Frazetta piece...we were wondering and had a general discussion about whether or not Big John's piece was inspired by or even influenced slightly by Frazetta's version...what do you folks think? Bojan also shared a little story about the legend of the Frazetta piece. It's a commision and Frank originally drew the piece with ol' Tarz havin' a stiffy. But the commisionee asked him to change it...he obliged. Cool story eh..Enjoy.
