Seriously.
It was freakin' extraordinary when he came on the scene. Difficult for those who weren't alive yet to understand, since there's so much of that sort of thing around now, and much of it very good. He was awesome.

I can remember getting fantasy calendars every Christmas by Frazetta. I saved them for years, but managed to lose them between various moves.
He was incredible.

Thus the world loses another of its true masters. Very Sad.
