All of the hardware eventually arrived and building is complete - the new desktop system is finally fully functional. At least on the hardware. The poor beast doesn't even have Photoshop installed yet. But - Progress!
Meanwhile, back at Frazetta's Funny Animals... commenter Top Cat James kindly pointed out that IDW released a collection back in 2012 entitled Frazetta - Funny Stuff. You don't have to go hunting for ancient issues of Barnyard, Coo Coo Comics, Goofy Comics, etc.,. You can read more on the book at IDW's website. (Don't worry - there's never any kickback links or that sort of thing on this site. I don't even have a means of accepting payments)
Apparently the book does include some of his spot illos for the text pages in those comics as well. How much it has, i've no clue. Frazetta did a lot of them - i can account for a hundred or so. Here's a couple dozen so you can get a look at his beautiful work on those. (see - I remembered!)
It makes one actually want to read some of those old required text pages, doesn't it?
