Frankenstein v4 #18 - Bernie Wrightson cover

Bernie Wrightson

Frankenstein (Monster) v4 #18, 1973 - After the adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel, the series expanded into further adventures that eventually led to the present day. On this final issue, Bernie Wrightson's fluid brushwork graces the cover pencils of Val Mayerick (who also draws the interior). The scene is chaotic but is well defined in terms of light and shade. No doubt this compelling image is partially the result of the two artists' compatible styles. On the inside story, no inker is credited, assuming Mayerick did the majority himself. And yet certain pages are suspiciously Wrightson-like in their finishing touches (especially pages 14, 15, 17). What this simply emulation on the part of Mayerick or did Wrightson lend an uncredited assist?
