RIP Frank Frazetta

If you don’t recognize his comic book art, you will at least recognize Conan the Barbarian thanks to his book covers as his obit states. Definitely a more worthy donation to Popular Culture than a Molly Hatchet album and every other van in the late Seventies.

Frazetta was certainly one of the pioneers in creating the looks we all associate with fantasy films, fiction and games. Without him, there probably wouldn’t be a Boris Vallejo and the numerous D&D artists I knew: Caldwell, Parkinson and Brom.
