FOUR DECADES AFTER it first hit cinemas, director Ralph Bakshi and artist Frank Frazetta's collaboration Fire And Ice is getting a comic book prequel from Dynamite Entertainment. Written by Bill Willingham and illustrated by Leonardo Manco, it will chronicle the events that led up to the 1983 animated fantasy film.
"I was a fan of anything Ralph Bakshi did, ever since his wonderful film Wizards came out in 1977, which I can still almost quote line-for-line to this day," says Willingham, who was approached by Frank Frazetta's granddaughter Sara of merchandising company Frazetta Girls. "And this film also reeked of Frazetta in every frame, so what's not to love?"
