I enjoyed Frank Cho's Liberty Meadow comics back in the 1990s, but haven't really followed his work since as he seemed to mostly be doing covers. This book offers a chance to catch up on a bunch of those covers from the early 2000s and be reminded of how sexy and bold his art is. It's all cheesecake and beefcake, with a little bit of nudity and a few dozen dinosaurs.

My main problem with the book is that aside from some copyright notices on the verso page there is a lack of any notation as to where the art originally appeared and who exactly all the characters are. Based on my own research, his Marvel work is represented by covers and sketches from The Mighty Avengers (2007) #1-7, Black Panther (2005) #3, 8 and 18, Ms. Marvel (2006) #1-5, New Avengers (2004) #14-15, Amazing Spider-Man (1998) #46-48, and Shanna the She-Devil (2005) #4-7. Other publishers are represented with covers from series like Fear Agent, DevaShard: Dark Before Dawn, Jungle Girl, Liberty Meadows, Dejah Thoris, Conan the Cimmerian, Red Sonja, and many more. Tributes to Tarzan, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, Edgar Rice Burroughs' Barsoom/Warlord of Mars, Masters of the Universe, and Poison Ivy also pop up.

Now that Cho is on my mind again, I might try his Jungle Girl series sometime soon. ( )
