Is it still /ss/ if it's a dirty old man in the body of a kid?
And do I want to go there?
I guess it's on to Danger Rangerette

Nice ride, OP. Thanks for the thread!
Anybody got anything else related before this thread goes off the back page?
I guess this is how people made money off rule 34 before the internet.
this thread deserves more love!
>>1463531
Thanks for coming back with more. Sorry I don't have any 'tributes myself ... but, *bump* for pg10 save & hope anyone else might.
In particular, I love the examples (such as >>1457609 for one) where he doesn't take himself too seriously. Just makes all the art & other work so much more entertaining.
love the cover arts.
Frank Thorne fuck he was good
>>1469177

>>1473065
>>1473065
was going to ask hoping to not sound like a dick, anyone know where I can find the first issue of Frank Thorne's Devil's Angel? I mean, it's like the only thing not available online

>>1473158

I don't have much more than what was posted in this thread (I'm not OP). Spooking around the Internets & trying to search up what I can find, and mostly looking for higher quality.
Just keep bumping the thread with any miscellaneous bits you happen to run across. Would be nice to hit 300 posts with maximum art.
>>1473171
This is out there. Somewhere.

God damn ... it's his birthday this week.
Frank Thorne (born June 16, 1930). And what a shit wiki page. It's a crime that folks haven't fleshed it out a hell of a lot more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Thorne
Pic related from an announcement a few years back. Almost stopped my heart that I'd just missed him. I'm close enough I could have driven to this if I'd known. But, the source says he's 82 ( http://fantagraphics.com/flog/frank-thorne-art-show-in-new-jersey/ ), and he will be 87 on the 16th, so no need to hero myself over this one.

where these scans came from: >>1473171 >>1454785
Just throwing pic-related in because it's from that portfolio & is nice & sexy; obv iously not Frank Thorne. If I find more, I'll bump on by later. Cheers!
Bump to keep it alive as I read it.
I really wish Dark Horse would contact him to do at *least* cover art for Red Sonja, or to see him give it a try with Conan
This is all amazing, OP, thank you for sharing this with us.
Did this guy go to Joe Kuburt's school? 'Cause he draws just like ol' Joe.
>>1474022
Frank was doing romance comic 28 years before Joe opened his school.
>>1473165
> original
*bamp* for interest
bump!
>>1450018
Hey look, it's 80's Jab!
>>1473267
Dynamite owns Red Sonja.
>>1475055
Romance comics? Which ones in particular? The easiest stuff of his i've been able to find were Four Color comics and Mighty Sampson.
So, after some google searching, i've yet to find any romance comics, but apparently he did Disney comics in the 50's.
my friends this was a good thread
>>1485163
then let's go out with a bang!
>>1482322
Try searching Frank Thorne on comicbookplus
>>1485163
My friend, this was an outstanding thread. Here's hope it don't die just quite yet ...
Great job OP.
>>1489390
Yes, thanks
>>1489390
For long I've believed to be the only man remembering Thorne. Good job OP, and enjoy a last bump.
that's actually a great comic book. I feel like genuinely liking Playboy both for the nudes AND the articles kind of feel.
>>1444101
Thanks OP! Fantastic thread.
For a time, this was *almost* acceptable as convention cosplay.
How we got the rule: "No costume is no costume."
bump for racy pulp
