Aw, man.

I remember the Phantom Zone mini-series he did with Gene Colan being the most unsettling Superman story I'd ever read until Alan Moore's stuff.

Mark Evanier's tribute is simple and touching.

WHAT*goggles*

I mean.

....

Holy crap.

I never knew him personally, but someone I was good friends with dated him for a long time. That is a very sad thing to hear.

I don't even know what to say, or think.

Thank you for posting this.

That sucks. Early 70s Marvel is my comic book era, really. Forget Howard, Omega, Man-Thing...he really did a great job with Son of Satan and the Defenders.

The tributes are kind of heartbreaking. He was obviously a mensch and well loved in the industry, aside from his talent as a writer.

Damn, that's a shame. He was one of my favorites.
