Frank Frazetta, 1928-2010
Obviously, this strip and countless others owes a great debt to the master. No fantasy artist or writer of the last three generations is without some inspiration and influence by Mr. Frazetta. He’ll be missed, but his body of work lives on.

Frazetta was one of the first, if not the first, fantasy illustrator to depict women as both powerful and sexy. I don’t think that we have yet realized his full influence on our society.

Hail to the fallen!
Hail, to Frank Frazetta, whose art fired my adolescent imagination!

Another great old talent gone.
Frazetta and his great archetypes. Slave girls, Princesses&Damsels in distress, Temptresses and not a single career gal in sight!
Perfect.
That man knew how to draw ass. Frankly speaking.
At least now he doesn´t have to fight with this thieving son about his art anymore.

I watched the movie\documentery on Frank, Frazetta: Painting with Fire. He was an amazing atrist. He drew what he liked and that was good for us all.

Farewell to THE man when it comes to fantasy art. Vallejo, Bell, Royo and so on… As great as they all are none of them can equal Frank Frazetta I think. Even Larry Elmore have to get in line behind the master (and this is from someone whose idea of what fantasy art should look like was pretty much formed by Elmore’s AD&D paintings).

Mr. Frazetta was an amazing artist, and I hope that people like you will continue to work in the tradition of his good name.
Bless you for all the comics you have done.
