RICHARD CORBEN DEN #3 COMIC BOOK SEXY UNDERGROUND COMIX AMAZON FANTASY MUSCLE!!!


RICHARD CORBEN - DEN #3 COMIC BOOK

For fans of Underground Comix!

SEXY MUSCLE! AMAZON.

COLLECTOR'S ITEM! Highly sought after.

Richard Corben’s first two Den stories, “Neverwhere” and “Muvovum,” appeared in Heavy Metal. Den is an Earthman who finds himself stranded on a barbaric fantasy world full of monsters and wizards. This self-published series presents part three of the Den saga. In it, Den searches for his missing lover, Kath, meeting characters from the previous stories in a tale which also encompasses a parallel quest for magical stones of power owned by an evil wizard. There’s an almost photographic feel to Corben’s drawing, which is strangely at odds with the grotesques that populate his strips. The strong coloring and lettering styles play an important role, producing an unsettling overall effect on the artwork. Apart from Den itself there is usually at least one backup strip, including interesting examples of Corben’s early work

Terrific artwork from one of the undisputed masters of the Underground Comix movement.

For fans of RICHARD CORBEN's unique style of extreme Fantasy and Horror. A RARE and VINTAGE Underground Comic Book with lavish full color artwork printed on high quality paper.

Richard Corben returns to his most famous creation... DEN the sexy fantasy series which began in the seventies, serialized in HEAVY METAL magazine, and was eventually adapted in the eighties HEAVY METAL animated movie.

Den is an Earthman who finds himself stranded on a barbaric fantasy world full of monsters and wizards. Den searches for his missing lover, Kath, meeting characters from the previous stories in a tale which also encompasses a parallel quest for magical stones of power owned by an evil wizard. There’s an almost photographic feel to Corben’s drawing, which is strangely at odds with the grotesque monsters that populate his strips. The strong coloring and lettering styles play an important role, producing a sexy moodiness in the artwork.

Once the greatest warrior in all of Neverwhere, now Den is a defeated and bloated shell of his former self. How did this once unbeatable force for justice wind up a pitiful drunkard and does his salvation lie to the north with the appearance of a mysterious Amazonian beauty. Plot, illustrations, and color by Richard Corben and script by Simon Revelstroke. Includes a back-up story by Stan Dresser. 32 pages.

RICHARD CORBEN (b. 1940) is one of the best-known fantasy artists in the world. In 1970 he self-published FANTAGOR, a science fiction/horror comic, and later worked on Underground comix such as SLOW DEATH. In the early '70s he drew many stories for the Warren line (CREEPY, EERIE, VAMPIRELLA), and finally came Métal Hurlant, the French magazine released in America as HEAVY METAL, for whom Corben did many memorable stories.
