classic bondage cover (3/48) Comic Book Impact rating of 8 (BCI)
Toronto Riverdale CollectionBrenda Starr #14 features a seriously racy pre-code GGA cover by Jack Kamen, one of the talented pros that worked at the Eisner/Iger studio in the post-war era. Brenda Starr rose to fame in a series of weekly comic strips that showcased the female reporter and her glamorous wardrobe as she got into all kinds of mystery and adventure. This cover certainly bears a memorable image, showing a scantily clad captive attempting to signal for help via morse code, although bondage covers were common in the Golden Age, this one is definitely a classic of the form.
Artist Information
Jack Kamen was an American illustrator for books, magazines, comic books and advertising, known for his work illustrating crime, horror, humor, suspense and science fiction stories for EC Comics, for his work in advertising, and for the onscreen artwork he contributed to the 1982 horror anthology film Creepshow.
