I didn’t know Frazetta worked in comics. She’s wearing more than the women in the paintings he’s known for, while her figure is just average for them.
I’m no Frazetta expert, but I know during his early years he did quite a bit of comics work–everything from sci-fi covers to jungle comics, some romance stories and even a bit of funny animal comics!
And, if you want to broaden the scope to include comic strips, he even ghosted art for Al Capp’s L’il Abner!
