\n\"retro<\/a>\nWhillikers! I can’t think when I’ve been so excited to find a web site. This reminds me of my first days on the web, when dinosaurs ruled the Earth and every venture online led to mysterious lands where the roads were pebbled with sapphires, and strange beasts roared in the verdant undergrowth that threatened to swallow those long-untrodden, alien paths.\n<\/p>

\nExcuse me.\n<\/p>

\nBut this is just so cool<\/em>.\n<\/p>

\nGolden Age Comic Book Stories<\/em><\/a> is a blog that features art and complete stories by giants like Al Williamson<\/a>, Roy G. Krenkel<\/a>, Frank Frazetta<\/a>, J. Allen St John<\/a> and a whole host of illustrators and comics artists from the mid twentieth century. The high quality versions of the Frazetta Buck Rogers<\/em> pictures would have been enough to get me excited – but oh, there’s just so much more. This is work that you see snippets of here and there, but Mr. Door Tree’s excellent blog is a genuine treasure trove.\n<\/p>

\nThe space pirates, flying ships, ray guns and adventure that’s wrapped up in this body of work are what floats my personal space boat. Below’s one of my own pictures called “Jeepers Creepers” – the whole time I was working on it, it’s exactly<\/em> these artists I was thinking of.\n<\/p>\n\"Retro<\/a>\n

\nThanks to The Beat<\/em><\/a> for dangling a link to the site in front of me.\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
