The Legendary Frank Frazetta

Frank Frazetta, the fantasy painter and illustrator whose images of sinewy warriors and lush vixens graced paperback novels, album covers and comic books for decades and became something close to the contemporary visual definition of the sword-and-sorcery genres, died on May 10th after suffering a stroke the night before. He was 82.
