Weird Fantasy v2 #14 |
Weird Fantasy v2 #14, 1952 - Al Williamson and Frank Frazetta collaborate on "Mad Journey", a tale of an experimental fuel that propels a rocket ship to Venus. The pencils are finely drawn, but compete with an abundance of dialogue throughout the story. Frazetta's inks are partial and inconsistent, adding little enhancement except for the first and final pages. In Wally Wood's tale, an advanced civilization exiles their most evil inhabitants to a remote planet. By contrast, his artwork is clear and precise, reinforcing the highly technological settings. Other artists in this golden age science fiction comic include Al Feldstein, Jack Kamen and Joe Orlando. Cover by Al Feldstein. This is 1 of 3 Weird Fantasy v2 issues by Frazetta. 1 of 8 Weird Fantasy v2 issues by Williamson and 14 of 15 Weird Fantasy v2 issues by Wood.
