Leone Frollo Mona Street - Enter Mona Street, 1988
Mona Street - Enter Mona Street, 1988
Information
pencil and ink on thin cardboard
35 x 50 cm
Original comic art created by Frollo for "Enter Mona Street", the first erotic adventure of his Mona published on page 3 in the volume Mona Street 1: The Secret Books of Glamor by Glamor International in 1988. Published in France in the same year with the title "L'entrée en scène de Mona Street", it marks the consecration of Frollo in the Olympus of erotic comics world-class author. We are in Boston in the 1920s, Mona Street is a shrewd girl recently out of college, soft curves candidly flaunted, an innocent face with an ironic look and a faint smile on her lips. Mona Street is a normal English name, but if you think that Leone Frollo is Venetian then the playful verbal misunderstanding becomes intuitive. The mischievous wink is already there in the name, therefore, but all the stories of Mona Street are underpinned by enveloping eroticism, ingeniously narrated by the author who, with a soft and voluptuous line in pencil or ink, has traced a very different character from the other "comic book heroines" who are almost always under the thumb of men: Mona has a false naive personality who makes fun of everyone, sometimes becoming a vindicator of her own sex. On two panels. Signed.
