This particular copy is personally signed by Frank Thorne on the limitation page and individually hand-numbered: #153 of only 175 copies The massive hardcover measures approximately 12\" x 17\" , reproducing Thorne's artwork at approximately its original art-board size. Dynamite created the Art Edition specifically to reproduce the experience of viewing Thorne's actual original artwork. The publisher used high-resolution color scans of the original pages from Frank Thorne's personal collection, preserving details normally lost in conventional comic-book reproduction, including variations in ink, pencil marks and other characteristics of the physical artwork. FRANK THORNE \u0026amp; RED SONJA Frank Thorne's work on Red Sonja is among the most celebrated periods of the character's history. This volume collects the artwork from his 1976 Red Sonja appearances in Marvel's Marvel Feature , with stories by Roy Thomas and Bruce Jones and artwork by Thorne. Dynamite describes the volume as presenting Thorne's complete 1976 run and reproducing the original storyboard artwork at its original size. Rather than simply reproducing the finished comics, the Art Edition format was designed around scans of the actual original artwork , allowing collectors to study Thorne's line work and production process at a scale approaching the original pages. MASSIVE 12\" x 17\" FORMAT This is a genuinely oversized collector's book. Approximate dimensions: 12\" wide x 17\" tall The large format is an important part of the appeal. The book was specifically produced at the dimensions of Thorne's original art boards, giving the artwork substantially more presence than a standard comic, trade paperback or conventional hardcover. The hardcover features a striking full-size Frank Thorne Red Sonja illustration on the front, with Red Sonja standing triumphantly above fallen warriors. SIGNED \u0026amp; NUMBERED The interior limitation page reads: “THIS EDITION IS SIGNED BY FRANK THORNE AND IS LIMITED TO 175 COPIES OF WHICH THIS IS NUMBER 153” Below this statement is Frank Thorne's signature . This copy is therefore: SIGNED BY FRANK THORNE HAND NUMBERED #153\/175 OVERSIZED 12\" x 17\" HARDCOVER DYNAMITE ENTERTAINMENT ART EDITION RED SONJA \/ MARVEL FEATURE ARTWORK ARTWORK REPRODUCED FROM ORIGINAL ART COLLECTOR'S LIMITED EDITION Frank Thorne passed away in 2021, making genuinely signed editions finite collectibles.
