hriller. Frazette of course is best known for his fantasy paintings many of which graced paperback covers, most notably many of the Conan books.Checking on Wiki I found that the artist did a fair bit of work for Hollywood, including posters for What's new Pussycat and The Fearless Vampire Killers. So maybe Eastwood wasn't so much of a fantasy fan after all, - maybe he just wanted to look like Conan.

Actually Fritz did look like Clint - I have a picture in a magazine of the two of them together. I'll look it out when I get the chance. Another great fantasy artist passed today. Al Williamson, best known for his Flash Gordon and Empire Strikes Back strips, died yesterday at the age of 79.
He started off back in the EC days, and in fact was known to collaborate with Frank Frazetta.
Another master gone.
I hate this decade!

Not the one I wanted, but it'll do for now.
