“Where Is Ozzy?” is the latest intriguing addition to the world of seek-and-find books, created by the dynamic Los Angeles-based animation studio and publisher, Fantoons. This book, officially licensed and set to release globally on July 29, 2025, targets both hardcore and casual fans of Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary lead of Black Sabbath and a giant figure in the world of rock music. With vibrant illustrations meticulously crafted by Fantoons, the book is a visual feast, drawing on iconic moments, albums, and themes from Ozzy's illustrious career.

This captivating book is filled with puzzling conundrums that promise to engage readers of all ages. Each page is designed as a double-spread puzzle, challenging readers to find Ozzy amidst a backdrop of heavy metal artwork. The graphics draw inspiration from iconic albums like “Blizzard Of Ozz” and “No More Tears”. Not merely a fun activity, “Where Is Ozzy?” is a homage to Osbourne’s legendary status and his lasting impact on music and pop culture, ingeniously blending entertainment with music history.

The creation of “Where Is Ozzy?” is a notable endeavor by David Calcano, a creative force behind Fantoons. Calcano’s artistic vision is supported by his extensive experience in animation and storytelling. His collaborations span across notable projects with industry giants such as Disney and Warner Brothers. This book, like many of his other projects, showcases his knack for blending music with storytelling through animation. Fantoons, under Calcano’s guidance, specializes in compelling cross-platform narratives that resonate with audiences, securing a footprint in both the worlds of animation and music.

Equally important to the vividness of “Where Is Ozzy?” are the contributions from artists Alberto Belandria, Juan J. Riera T., Larissa Rivero, and Jorge Mansilla. Based in Spain, these artists bring unique talents to the project, each seasoned in their craft from character coloring to detailed inking and background art. Their collective experience working on diverse projects—ranging from animated series like “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” to collaborations with celebrated rock bands like Rush and Alice Cooper—ensures that “Where Is Ozzy?” is as much an art piece as it is an interactive experience.

Fantoons, co-founded by Calcano and Linda Otero, is renowned for delivering stories with compelling visual worlds. Its reputation is fortified by successful past publications like “Motörhead: Where Is Lemmy?” and “Rush: Where Is Geddy, Alex And Neil?” The studio’s ability to capture the essence of artists and bands has won it acclaim from venues such as Rolling Stone and CNN. With “Where Is Ozzy?”, Fantoons continues its legacy of producing quality content that indulges fans in rich, animated worlds.

Retailers like Amazon and Barnes & Noble have already opened pre-order lines for this anticipatory release, and the book has attracted even wider attention in music and literary circles. The excitement surrounding “Where Is Ozzy?” is palpable, as it presents an intriguing way to engage with the history of one of rock’s most storied frontmen. With each illustration uniquely tailored to celebrate milestones of Ozzy Osbourne's career, the book addresses fans' desire to explore this dark, mystical universe Ozzy himself embodies.
