The Return of Gwendoline .... FetHistory Blog Description (by
Richard Pérez Seves)
:
Newly released as a stand-alone supplement to the "classic era" collector's hardcover book,
Eric Stanton & the History of the Bizarre Underground
, this is a brand new re-issuing of two Golden Age Eric Stanton classics:
The Return of Gwendoline
and
Deborah
—
both reconstructed from newly discovered archival material. Both contained in one lovingly-curated, elegantly designed softcover book.
The Return of Gwendoline
has been out of print for many decades. Originally commissioned by Times Square underground publisher, Edward Mishkin, in the mid-1960s, it was intended as a follow-up (of sorts) to Stanton's very successful John Willie comic tribute,
Sweeter Gwen
.
The Return of Gwendoline
contains some gorgeous Stanton pencil work and his usual bizarre sense of humor with his flair for illustrating powerful, sexy women (and luscious, sensuous damsels) in full evidence. There's no question that this is the best-ever pencil work that Stanton contributed to Mishkin. Needless to say, there's a theme of female domination (and male/female submission) that runs through the story
—
all of it rendered in a sexy light. Stanton's lifelong muse, Bettie Page, once again appears as the model for the character of secret agent YU-69 (see below). Stanton's artwork is fantastic
—
and this is one you need to own!
Deborah
—
also, included in this volume
—
was originally commissioned by Leonard Burtman in 1957 for his magazine,
Exotique
, where it ran as a serial. This is the rare, complete version not seen in book form since 1963. It's a noir-style, fetish fashion melodrama with an emphasis on 1950s exotic glamour, corsets, leather opera gloves, veiled hats, ultra-high-heeled shoes, femme-fatales, mystery and dramatic lighting. It's stylishly feminine and uniquely beautiful. As visually compelling as any classic noir film
—
with a sexy, vintage fetish twist.
========================================
Gene Bilbrew, Eneg, Brutal Punishment for Captive Girls, Restored Edition
❇
When two Americans crash land in the South Pacific, they are immediately taken hostage by an all-female tribe. But this is no Paradise Island; Wonder Woman is nowhere in sight. Little do they know the horrors that await!
BOOK DESCRIPTION:
Originally published as "Island of Captive Girls" in 1953,
Brutal Punishment for Captive Girls
went through various permutations under numerous publishers, including Irving Klaw and Times Square owner and operator, Edward Mishkin.
This newly restored classic quite simply features some of the best fetish art by Gene Bilbrew under his rogue alias, "Eneg," produced only three years after he had switched careers from professional singer to underground cartoonist. It contains both volumes, originally published separately, and, as a bonus, includes the continuation of the tale as it originally appeared in 1953.
Let this unique, subversive collection be your introduction to this great, neglected African American artist.
