Frank Frazetta! He's been rightfully called "The Grand Master of Fantasy
Art"! But, it's little known that Frazetta also conquered other worlds in the
Golden Age of Comics, as shown in his Donald Duck-ish funny animal and hilarious
hillbilly comic book stories. Even those aware of this wonderful Frazetta art
don't know the extent - this book is a whopping 256, large-format pages!
Did we mention ferocious, terrifying wolves and swampland creatures in the
plethora of animal stories illustrations as only Frazetta could draw them?
There's also lions and tigers and bears - oh my! - before Frazetta's
famous paintings captured the same subjects. But wait, there's more! You'll see
the roots of the Frazetta Girl in the sexy Kathy teenage girl adventures and the
hot Daisy Mae-look-alike, Clarabelle, in the hillbilly hi-jinks stories of her
beau, Looey Lazybones (Holy Li'l Abner!).
The introduction is by famed cartoon director Ralph Bakshi, who closely
worked with Frazetta when they co-produced the animated feature film, Fire
and Ice. Bakshi shares rare insights, anecdotes, photos, and Frazetta
drawings, and created a special painting of Frazetta and himself as funny
animals for this beautiful hardcover, full-color coffee table book! Frazetta
- Funny Stuff is edited and designed by Eisner award-winner Craig
