Comic Art News: R.I.P. Frank Frazetta
Frank Frazetta, one of the most renowned fantasy illustrators of the 20th century whose stunning and energetic images influenced a generation, died this afternoon at a hospital near his home in Boca Grande, Florida. He was 82.
The cause of death was a stroke, said Rob Pistella and Steve Ferzoco his business managers.
Funeral arrangements will be announced shortly.
We’ve truly lost an artist whose contributions to this hobby are without measure. I’m going to spend the rest of today reflecting on how his work made such an impact on me by looking at the many pieces of art posted here at CAF.

Video: Using InDesign to lay out comics
I have certainly used InDesign to package finished comics projects, but since it’s primarily a page layout tool, I have never seen it used for any sort of drawing. In this video Gareth Hinds shows how he uses InDesign’s vector pencil tool to do the rough sketching and layouts for his comic book adaptation of The Odyssey.
This is the first in a series of videos for which he plans to share the other steps in his comic-making process.
