Frank Frazetta, Sr. was one of the most prolific and popular of artists for pulp Sword and Sorcery novels during the 1950s. He was frequently employed to do art for Conan the Barbarian. Frazetta Man is also his baby. And then there's the Death Dealer, 1973.

The Death Dealer got erected as a statue at Fort Hood in 2009. This led to a lawsuit between Frank Sr. and Frank Jr. over who had the right to allow what derivative art to be made from the elder's originals.

Ralph Bakshi involved Frazetta in their animation Fire and Ice, for better or worse. Its Darkwolf is the Death Dealer, but lame, as only Bakshi could fuck up a good thing.
