I stumbled across this very interesting Jack Davis cover the other day. I was taken by the fact it was an infinity cover featuring Frankenstein of all folks.

Then later I found this full-spread scan of the cover. This is Jack Davis at his best.

One detail jumped out at me though when I inspected the cover. These little rats have some distinctive pants on don't you think?
Jack Davis can really draw Frankenstein. He imbues the Creature with a somber dignity despite a rather cartoony approach. The classic Jack Davis Frankenstein will always be etched in my memory.

I always craved that poster. Though I will admit I craved the Vampirella one more.
