Al Capp's Li'l Abner: The Frazetta Years

Between 2003 and 2004, Dark Horse collected Al Capp's classic Li'l Abner newspaper strips from the 1950s in this four-issue series, spotlighting the period when legendary fantasy artist Frank Frazetta provided the daily and Sunday art. Capp's satirical, larger-than-life tales of the hillbilly residents of Dogpatch are given a raw, dynamic energy by Frazetta's powerful linework, capturing the strip at a creative peak. For fans of mid-century Americana and Frazetta's early career, this series preserves a unique collaboration between two iconic talents.
