Let’s take a look at all three Easter episodes of
Frankie Stein in WHAM! comic. Those from 1965 and 1967 editions were by Ken
Reid while the one in the middle (1966) was by someone else because Ken was too
busy with The Queen of the Seas at the time and had to give up drawing Frankie
Stein temporarily. Which is a pity because the period when Ken was substituted
by another artist coincided with Frankie’s days at Madam McAbre’s Academy for
Frustrated Freaks (or Monster Manor) inhabited by fiendish characters of all
sorts. One can only imagine how brilliant the episodes would have been, had
they been illustrated by Frankie Stein’s original artist.
Happy Easter!
Happy Easter, Irmy. Y'know, considering the detail in Queen Of The Seas (two pages too), it's a wonder that Ken EVER found the time to draw anything else.
