The Fantastic Worlds of Frank Frazetta by Dan Nadel

Frank Frazetta has reigned as the undisputed king of fantasy art for 50 years, with his fame only growing in the years since his death. His high-energy oils of Tarzan, Conan, Vampirella and his signature Death Dealer define not just fantasy worlds, but the bodies that occupy them: fleshy, muscular, tactile and sensual.
“The Godfather of fantasy art finally gets a proper monograph, as a team of artists, writers, scholars, and family members pay weighty tribute to Frazetta’s insane vision and industry-changing career” * Village Voice *
