Frank Frazetta’s cover artwork for VAMPIRELLA #1 [Sept, 1969 WARREN MAGAZINE]
Vampirella, (inspired by the success of Jane Fonda’s camp film version of the French comic strip Barbarella) was the third title in Warren’s line of horror comics. Whereas Creepy and Eerie owed much of their inspiration to EC comics and the Universal horror films of the 1930s and ‘40s, Vampirella drew its influence from the sexier Hammer studio movies of the 1950s and ‘60s that were standard fare at the drive-in theaters at the time. The heady mixture of sex and violence made the magazine an instant success. [Legacy: Selected Paintings & Drawings by Frank Frazetta]

@Rothmus There is a power difference here as women are vulnerable to physically stronger men. Also a historic legacy of men trying to get women drunk to have sex. This is not all men but a large enough minority that rules have to be put in place. Women deserve to be safe.
