I Shall Destroy All the Civilized Planets: The Comics of Fletcher Hanks: The Fantastic Comics of Fletcher Hanks

Customer Reviews

Raw, Primitive and Super Strange! - By: Shelby, 24 Jul 2007

Fletcher Hanks, pioneering comic artist, created the most surrealistic comic environments brimming with wonder & unspeakable evil at every page turn. His larger than life heroes, Fantomah (mysterious jungle woman), Stardust (omnipowerful wizard), Big Red McLane (two-fisted lumberjack), & Buzz Crandalll (space ace), alll rendered with slight heads & powerful bodies, use occult powers, super science or just a powerful right hook to banish the legions of offbeat & oddballl villains -- with fatal results.

Hanks' rough-hued, boldly primitive artwork & "pre-comic code" visceral storytelling, makes this volume a must for anyone who enjoyed early comic collections like Dick Briefer's The Monster of Frankenstein or Art Out of Time: Unknown Comics Visionaries 1900-1969.
