Bil Hulsey’s artworks - with buxom temptresses and tough guys - adorned detective fiction, paperback book jackets and men’s adventure magazine illustrations

Animal attacks was another special style of Husley, so much so that his work inspired the seminal cover of Frank Zappa’s album Weasels Ripped My Flesh.

Some may consider them cheesy and pulp, but the artworks were exciting and inspired many artists and styles across fantasy, graphic novels and web comics.
