Eros Graphic Album no. 3 Anton's Collected Drek featuring Wendy Whitebread


Donald E. Simpson is an American comic book cartoonist and freelance illustrator, most noted as the creator of the series Megaton Man, Border Worlds, and Bizarre Heroes, as well as the official comic book adaption of King Kong. He also freelanced for nearly every major comic book publisher. His most widely seen work are the illustrations he created for Al Franken's 2004 bestseller, Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right.

Between 1990 and 1992, Simpson created six erotic underground comix under the pseudonym "Anton Drek," including Wendy Whitebread, Undercover Slut and Forbidden Frankenstein:
In 1993, Eros Comix began to collect their “greatest hits” into a series of trade paperbacks under the moniker of “Eros Graphic Albums.” Each volume generally collects an entire original mini-series under a single cover.
In this edition:
Wendy Whitebread #1-2, Forbidden Frankenstein #1-2, Dracula's Daughter #1, and Anton's Drekbook #1. And extra artwork and cartoons. The exact content is described here: comics.org

The [Fetish] Art of Michael Manning

As an artist, his comics are often discribed as being reminiscent of classical Japanese wood block prints. The plots are thin, but that never bothered since the point is really to enjoy the erotic art. And when it comes to art, Manning delivers. His black and white figures are drawn with simple, clean, fluid lines. The fetish elements are imaginative, sexy and even beautiful. If you think you could enjoy a potent mixture of sci-fi, bondage and harcore comics, you really can't go wrong with "Tranceptor: The Way Station". Followed by "Tranceptor: Book Two: Iron Gauge, Part One". Unfortunately, as the title suggests, this is only the first part of a second book. Consequently, even though the art is up to the same standard set in the first comic, the story feels distinctly unfinished. Which is too bad since "The Way Station" hinted at a very interesting and byzantine world beyond it's desert setting. But you don't see any more of it in the follow-up. "Part One of Iron Guage" captures the main characters in a story-line lull as they recuperate from the action that took place in "The Way Station". Fans of the first book will still find it hard to resist this purchase, but people should beware. The sexuality is defintely kinky and not for the easily offended.

Black Leather Corset of Dune by Noah Berlatsky:

Porn is the genre fiction that dare not speak its name. When you think of genre, you tend to think of sci-fi, detective, horror, western, romance, or the like. Porn doesn’t make the list — instead, its set off in a box by itself, for special censure or (less often) praise. Yet, when you look closely, porn doesn’t really seem all that anomalous. Like other genre art, it’s broadly popular, has its own predictable tropes, and appeals primarily (though not exclusively) to one gender. Porn isn’t an absolute evil ruining our children, nor is it a liberating force releasing the power of our repressed sexuality. It’s just another marketing niche.

The Art of Cornnell Clarke

Browsing the internet in search for some background material I often find these little gems. Ordinary people I assume, who give their opinion on books they read and are often more entertaining then the regular reviews. Below are some of those on one of my favorite artists and his creations.

Catholic high school senior Molly runs  into a wild classmate that gets her into the hottest situations.
Nothing like spreading peanut butter on the right spots, doing it in the school bathroom, getting instructed in oral for the very first time, even getting the strict head nun at their school to lift her robe for an all-out anal blasting orgy for graduation!

Now she must confess to her sins and face how she loves being taken vigorously, even if she has become pregnant! A shockingly arousing side-story to this best-selling series.

Molly Fredrickson is a concoction of humankind's most deliciously sinful desires. With her Catholic schoolgirl outfit, cute family pet, girlish hairstyles, gentle looking suburban neighborhood and freckles like chocolate sprinkles, Molly presents an image of innocent naivety--but across these pages this raw sexual creature is anybody but.

Molly is a nymph of the highest caliber, libido and id off their leashes, a young woman who thrives on pure, sweet pleasure whenever she finds it...or whenever it finds her first. And in her carnal universe she never has to look very far, for as Molly quickly discovers her entire neighborhood is a landscape of orgy-filled insanity. In this dimension EVERYBODY'S horny and ready to go. Anywhere Molly wanders, sex in some form is bound to happen. She's not so much the kind of girl you'd bring home to meet mom as the kind mom would later jump on in the dark.
