Thanks George. I haven't checked the weather report, is Bad Brains back together today? And what are they playing? Reggae, ska or maybe Scandanavian folk songs at 78 RPM?

I'm stocked up for visiting the relatives

How in the fuck did you get in my grandma's house to take her picture?

And, next time you are there, tell her I need my bong back.

Choad, please wish Frank a happy holiday and let him know how much I appreciate his work.

I'd just googled a bit, and I'd had no idea he was behind Red Sonja.  And a serial in Heavy Metal!  I wish I could remember "Lann", I know I've read it as I subscribed to HM from about 81 through 88.

Frank has had an interesting career for a guy who, by his own reckoning, began drawing porn 72 years ago. Start with his name; Benjamin Franklin Thorne. I've always known him as Ben or Benny.

If you were a Flash Gordon fan in the late 40s, that was Frank. Perry Mason, which my well have started as comic strip, in the 50s, Mad Men in the 60s and I don't know when all Sonia, Marvel and Playboy happened along. He taped a never aired sketch for SNL's first season based on hillbilly inbreds who called themselves the beltless clan. A complete accounting would take forever. I know Ben boasts a couple High Times covers, probably their only contributor ever who's never smoked weed.

Ben's rubbed elbows with all the cartooner greats, but the best story I heard him tell was about touring the Sistine Chapel with the artist drawing Popeye at the time, and both their wives. One of the Vatican guards stopped his friend's wife to examine her Popeye lapel pin because he and fellow guards were huge fans, all but oblivious to the greatest cartoon ever created floating above their heads. You know the word cartoon is Italian, right? That's what Michelangelo drew up there, before inking it in plaster alfresco.

I'm still not sure how to reconcile Frank and weapons of any description. He kept a huge collection for drawing purposes until the net produced images for everything, but I seriously doubt he's ever fired a gun. I know he happily gave away his great granddad's civil war battle rattle. I got none of this super hero stuff as a kid and confess I don't get it all. My own theory is Frank would draw anything that allowed him to focus on tits.

You want to learn more about the renaissance sweatshops these guys inhabited, start here.

Production methods

Like many cartoonists, Capp made extensive use of assistants (notably Andy Amato, Harvey Curtis, Walter Johnson and Frank Frazetta). During the extended peak of the strip, the workload grew to include advertising, merchandising, promotional work, public service comics and other specialty work—in addition to the regular six dailies and one Sunday strip per week. From the early 1940s to the late 1950s, there were scores of Sunday strip-style magazine ads for Cream of Wheat using the Abner characters, and in the 1950s, Fearless Fosdick became a spokesman for Wildroot Cream-Oil hair tonic in a series of daily strip-style print ads. The characters also sold chainsaws, underwear, ties, detergent, candy, soft drinks—including a licensed version of Capp's moonshine creation, Kickapoo Joy Juice—and General Electric and Procter & Gamble products, all requiring special artwork.

No matter how much help he had, Capp insisted on drawing and inking the characters' faces and hands—especially of Abner and Daisy Mae—himself, and his distinctive touch is often discernible. "He had the touch," Frazetta said of Capp in 2008. "He knew how to take an otherwise ordinary drawing and really make it pop. I'll never knock his talent."
