Death Dealer (Frank Frazetta’s…)

    (Image, 2007-2008)
™ and © 2007 Frank Frazetta

The character of the Death Dealer began its life in a 1973 painting by Frank Frazetta, the fantasy genre’s most renowned artist. Almost 25 years later, Image Comics has taken it upon themselves to tell the Death Dealer’s story.

An army of the undead has begun destroying villages in the land of Oro, and in the midst of this chaos, the fabled being known as the Death Dealer has once again appeared. But why does he come to Oro now, and where does he come from at all? Storytellers Nat Jones, Jay Fotos, and Joshua Ortega promise to tell us.

Although Frazetta, now 79 years old, does not handle the art himself, the pencils are lovingly crafted by Jones and colored by Fotos, and Frazetta has overseen the creation of the comic throughout all its steps. In addition, Frazetta provides covers for this series, featuring his classic character in all its glory.
