You'll find more Brains Benton at the link I included in the last paragraph of my post, including copies for sale.<BR/><BR/>The Frazetta connection is tenuous, likely just a function of both artists being of a certain era when pulp adventure illustration was more influential. All that art has a certain moody quality about it and I think these pieces by Greene adhere to that formula, as did Frazetta's early Thun'da-era work.<BR/><BR/>Frazetta's work had more flair, tho', imo ;-)leifpenghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07232334860061949895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-1157675140981105582006-09-07T20:25:00.000-04:002006-09-07T20:25:00.000-04:00Wow, I'd forgotten all about this.

I know I read at least one other book in the "Brains Benton" series. Unlike the cover, I don't recall the interior illustrations. I don't recall making a Frazetta connection at the time, but then again, I don't think I was familiar with Frazetta. I can see some affinities when I look at them now--whether it would have dawned on me without your post is hard to say. I'll have to see if I can find a copy of this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
